Optimus AMX-10 - Manual (Page 3)

Notes:
• If you will not be using the speak-
ers for a week or more, or if you
will be using only AC or vehicle
battery power, remove the batter-
ies from each speaker.
• If the speakers’ sound weakens or
distorts, or the power indicator
dims during use, replace all the
batteries in both speakers.
Caution: Always dispose of old bat-
teries promptly and properly.
Using AC Power
You can power your speakers from a
standard AC outlet using a 12-volt AC
adapter (not supplied), such as Ra-
dioShack Cat. No. 273-1653.
Cautions:
• The recommended adapter sup-
plies 12 volts DC power and deliv-
ers at least 600 milliamps. Its
center tip can be set to positive,
and its plug properly fits the right
speaker’s
DC 12V jack. Using an
adapter that does not meet these
specifications could damage the
speaker or the adapter.
• Always plug the AC adapter into
the speaker before you plug it into
the AC outlet. Always unplug the
AC adapter from the AC outlet
before you unplug it from the
speaker.
Follow these steps to use AC power.
1. Make sure POWER OFF/ON is set
to OFF .
2. Plug the 5.5 mm outer diameter/
2.1 inner diameter barrel plug into
the AC adapter cord, matching
TIP to positive (+).
3. Plug the adapter’s barrel plug into
the DC 12V jack on the rear of the
right (R) speaker.
4. Plug the adapter into a standard
AC outlet.
Note: Connecting an AC adapter au-
tomatically disconnects internal batter-
ies.
