Listening to music of a portable audio device, etc. through a wired connection

You can use the speaker by connecting a portable audio device, etc., to the speaker using an audio cable (commercially available).

Note

  • Before establishing a connection between the speaker and a portable audio device, turn down the volume of the speaker and the device to avoid any sudden loud sound output from the speaker.
  1. Connect a device to the AUDIO IN jack with an audio cable (commercially available).

    For connection, use an audio cable with a stereo mini plug (no resistance)* at both ends.

    * If you use an audio cable (with stereo mini plugs) with significant resistance, the sound may be lower. Therefore, make sure you use a cable (with stereo mini plugs) without resistance.

  2. Turn on the speaker.

    The (power) indicator lights up in green.

  3. Touch AUDIO IN on the speaker.
  4. Turn on and start playback on the connected device.
  5. Adjust the volume to a moderate level on the connected device.

    If the volume is adjusted by operations on the connected portable audio device, the(power) indicator on the speaker will not flash.

  6. Touch –/+ (volume) on the speaker to adjust the volume.

    When you touch –/+ (volume) on the speaker to adjust the volume, the(power) indicator flashes once or 3 times.

Hint

  • When you cannot hear the sound, raise the volume on the connected device.

Note

  • While the Stereo Pair function or the Party Connect function is in use, the speaker is not capable of outputting the music playing on the device that is connected to the AUDIO IN jack by an audio cable.

  • While a portable audio device is connected to the AUDIO IN jack and music playback is in progress, operations on the speaker, for example, to pause, to skip to the beginning of the next track, and to skip to the beginning of the current track are disabled.

  • Do not use the AUDIO IN jack in places where the speaker is likely to have water splashed on it. The supplied AC power cord (mains lead) as well as the jacks and ports (AC IN/USB/AUDIO IN/OPTICAL IN/MIC/GUITAR) behind the cap are not designed for water resistant.

  • Be sure to close the cap completely after disconnecting the audio cable from the speaker.

    The cap plays a very important role in maintenance of the water resistant performance.
