Operating Instructions

Volume Control

The speaker features an independent volume control knob (ON/OFF VOLUME) on its front panel. This allows you to adjust the speaker's volume without affecting the main TV volume. You can turn down or even mute your TV's built-in speakers while still enjoying clear audio from the wireless speaker placed near you.

Charging

To recharge the speaker, simply place it back onto the transmitter base. The base will automatically charge the speaker. Ensure the speaker is properly aligned with the charging contacts on the base. A battery icon on the LCD display will indicate charging status.

FM Radio and Digital Clock

The speaker includes a built-in FM radio. Use the 'FM' button to switch to radio mode. The '+' and '-' buttons can be used to tune frequencies. The LCD display also functions as a digital clock. Use the 'SET' button to adjust the time.

• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the exterior of the speaker and the transmitter base. Do not use liquid cleaners or abrasive chemicals, as they may damage the finish or internal components.
