• Over Current Protection (OCP): The adapter is designed to prevent damage from excessive current draw.
• Short Circuit Protection (SCP): The adapter is designed to protect against short circuits.
• Do not expose the adapter to water, rain, or excessive moisture.
• Do not disassemble or modify the adapter.
• Ensure the adapter is used within its specified input and output voltage/current ranges.
• Keep out of reach of children.

Setup

Follow these steps to properly connect your UpBright AC/DC Adapter to your Dolphin SP-17RBT speaker.

1. Identify the Speaker's Power Input: Locate the DC power input port on your Dolphin SP-17RBT speaker. This is typically a circular port designed for a barrel connector.
2. Connect the Adapter to the Speaker: Insert the barrel connector end of the UpBright AC/DC Adapter cable firmly into the speaker's DC power input port.
3. Connect to Power Outlet: Plug the AC prongs of the adapter into a standard wall power outlet (100-240VAC, 50/60Hz).
4. Verify Connection: Ensure both connections are secure. The speaker should indicate that it is receiving power or charging, typically via an LED indicator.

International Use

For international orders, a suitable outlet adapter (AU, EU, or UK type) may be included to fit your country's power outlets. Ensure you use the correct adapter for your region.

Operating

Once connected, the adapter will supply power to your Dolphin SP-17RBT speaker or charge its internal battery.

• The adapter is designed for continuous use within its specified operating parameters.
• Monitor the speaker's charging indicator (if available) to determine battery status.
• Battery Life Consideration: Rechargeable batteries have a finite lifespan, typically 1 to 3 years. An old or dead battery may not accept a charge, which is a battery issue, not an adapter malfunction.

Maintenance

Proper care will extend the life of your AC/DC adapter.

• Cleaning: Disconnect the adapter from the power outlet and the device before cleaning. Use a dry, soft cloth to wipe the surface. Do not use liquid cleaners.
• Storage: Store the adapter in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures when not in use.
• Cable Care: Avoid bending or crimping the power cord excessively, especially near the connectors, to prevent internal wire damage.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your adapter, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:

• No Power to Speaker:
  • Ensure the adapter is securely plugged into both the wall outlet and the speaker.
  • Test the wall outlet with another device to confirm it is functional.
  • Check the adapter cable for any visible damage.
• Speaker Not Charging:
  • As rechargeable batteries degrade over time (1-3 years average lifespan), an old or dead battery may no longer accept a charge. This is a battery issue, not an adapter fault.
  • To verify if the charger is working, a voltmeter is required to test its output voltage.
• Adapter Overheating: Disconnect the adapter immediately. Ensure it is used in a well-ventilated area and not covered. If overheating persists, discontinue use and contact support.
