Setup Instructions

Before connecting the adapter, please carefully read these instructions to ensure proper compatibility and safe operation.

1. Verify Device Compatibility: Ensure your device, such as the Superstar Monster Blaster speaker, requires an 18V DC input. This adapter is specifically designed for 18V devices and is not compatible with devices requiring 5V, 6V, 15V, 22V, or 25V. Using the incorrect voltage adapter can damage your device.
2. Check Connector Type: Confirm that the adapter's connector plug matches your device's power input port. The correct connector type for compatible devices is typically a barrel connector without a central pin.

3. Confirm Polarity: The adapter's polarity must match your device's requirements. This adapter typically uses a center-positive polarity. Refer to your device's manual or power input label for its specific polarity requirements.

4. Connect to Device: Insert the adapter's output plug firmly into the power input port of your Superstar Monster Blaster speaker.
5. Connect to Power Outlet: Plug the AC power cord into a standard wall outlet (100-240VAC). Ensure the outlet is easily accessible.
