2. Setup and Connection

Follow these steps to properly set up and connect your AC/DC adapter to your compatible Axess speaker:

1. Verify Compatibility: Ensure your Axess speaker model (PABT6026, PABT6027, AXS1001U, AXS1001OB, AXS1000U, AXS1000OB) requires a 15V DC input. Using an incompatible adapter may damage your device.
2. Inspect the Adapter: Before connecting, visually inspect the adapter and its cord for any signs of damage, such as frayed wires or bent pins. Do not use if damaged.
3. Connect to Speaker: Insert the barrel connector end of the adapter cord firmly into the DC input port on your Axess speaker.
4. Connect to Power Outlet: Plug the two-prong AC plug into a standard 100-240V AC wall outlet. Ensure the outlet is easily accessible.

The adapter is designed for universal input voltage (100-240V AC), making it suitable for various regions. Its cord length is approximately 6.5 feet (2 meters), providing flexibility in placement.

• Charging: The adapter provides a stable 15V DC output, suitable for charging the internal battery of your compatible Axess speaker. Charging times may vary depending on the speaker's battery capacity and current charge level.
• Powering On: The adapter can also power the speaker directly while it is in use, even if the battery is fully charged or depleted.
• Safety Features: The adapter incorporates dynamic IC, charger IC, and power fuse protection to prevent overcharging and ensure rapid, safe power delivery.

4. Maintenance and Care

Proper care will extend the life of your Kircuit AC/DC Adapter:

• Cleaning: Disconnect the adapter from the power outlet and the speaker before cleaning. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the exterior. Do not use liquid cleaners or abrasive materials.
• Storage: When not in use, store the adapter in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Avoid tightly coiling the cord to prevent damage.
• Handling: Do not drop, disassemble, or expose the adapter to moisture. Avoid pulling the cord to disconnect it from the outlet; always grasp the plug itself.

5. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your adapter, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• No Power/Not Charging:
  • Ensure the adapter is securely plugged into both the wall outlet and the speaker.
  • Try plugging the adapter into a different wall outlet to rule out a faulty outlet.
  • Verify that your speaker is indeed compatible with a 15V DC input.
  • Check the adapter cord and connector for any visible damage.
• Adapter Feels Hot:
  • It is normal for power adapters to become warm during operation. However, if it feels excessively hot or emits a burning smell, immediately disconnect it from the power source and discontinue use.

If troubleshooting steps do not resolve the issue, contact the seller or manufacturer for further assistance.
