Additional Safety Instructions in Different Languages

FIRST USE

Make sure to fully charge your PicoMic before the first use, since it may be completely discharged.

Place it in your receiver charging dock, and plug your receiver to a USB power source. During the charge, the PicoMic light will flash yellow.
You should charge your PicoMic at least once a month.

Do not store your PicoMic for a long time with a low battery.
This could significantly lower the battery capacity.

After your PicoMic is fully charged, you will need to pair it with your receiver.
The procedure depends on your receiver model – please refer to it to continue your setup!

LED INDICATION

The PicoMic LED can show the following states:

OFF In sleep mode (not connected)
Flashing yellow Charging
Green Fully charged
Other colors Connected and streaming

RECOMMENDED POSITIONING

We recommend positioning the PicoMic as close as possible to the mouth of the speaker. If the PicoMic is too far from the mouth, it will pick up more unwanted ambient noise, making the voice less intelligible. For example, you can position it at the top of the shirt, near the collar.

COMMON PROBLEMS

My receiver will not connect to the PicoMic.
- If the receiver shows “NO PAIRED MIC”, you will need to pair your PicoMic with your receiver. Follow the procedure above.
- If the receiver shows “CONNECTING…”, your PicoMic may be completely discharged. Make sure to charge it by connecting the receiver to a USB power source. Please note that the receiver will not charge the PicoMic if it is not itself connected to a USB power source.
My PicoMic does not charge (no flashing yellow light).
Make sure your receiver is connected to a USB power source.
The audio quality is not good.
- Make sure that the PicoMic gain is not too low. Usually, you should use a 0dB gain, unless you are in a very noisy environment.
- Make sure that your receiver gain is properly set, depending on your audio device. Check your online user manual for more information.
I am trying to use the PicoMic onstage, but I get feedback noise (Larsen effect)
- Generally, we don’t recommend using a Lavalier microphone for live stage events, where the sound is immediately broadcasted – the PicoMic will pick this sound as well and it may create feedback.
- Generally, you will need to reduce the PicoMic gain and put it as close as possible to the speaker mouth.
- Use the PicoMic Pro with an external directional Lavalier microphone, or better, with an external headset microphone where the microphone is very close to the mouth.
