DIAGRAM AND PARTS DESCRIPTION

1. Instrument / Microphone
Input with
Control (1/4"):
mono input accepts a 1/4"
input such
microphone, guitar,
other musical instrument.
2. iPod/Auxiliary input with
Volume Control (Stereo
RCA): This stereo RCA
input can be used to
connect a CD, MP3, or
other audio source. The
knob controls the level of
the iPod and the RCA
input. To connect to a
portable device with a
1/8" headphone jack, you
need a standard 1/8"-to-
RCA adapter which is not
included.
3. Master Volume Control:
This knob controls the master volume of the TAILGATER.
4. Power ON/OFF Switch: Turns TAILGATER on or off.
Please note that while TAILGATER is connected to a
power source, it does not need to be powered on to
charge the battery.
5. iPod Charging Switch: Turn on iPod charging by setting
this switch to the "Charge iPod" position.
6. Voltage Selector*: Set this to the correct voltage for your
location's standard.
7. Power In (IEC): Insert the included power cable here to charge the unit. Note that the TAILGATER can run off
wall power while it simultaneously charges the battery. The charge indicator illuminates when the battery is
charging.
8. Battery Level Indicator: While the unit is powered ON, these four lights indicate the power left in the battery.
Battery life varies based on volume and usage.
9. Link Output: Connect a 1/4" stereo (TRS) cable to this line-level output to connect another amplification
device, such as another TAILGATER.
IMPORTANT NOTES
If your sound is distorted at high volumes, please refer to the following troubleshooting scenarios:
•
Input is clipping: Try lowering the input gain or the volume control on your sound source or music instrument.
•
Output is clipping: Lower the main volume level.
•
There is too much bass: Try adjusting the tone or EQ control on your sound source to lower the bass level.
This will allow you to play the music louder before clipping (distortion) occurs.
•
The link cable: is being plugged into the instrument or MIC input instead of the RCA line input.
Important: With all speakers, an initial "break-in" period is needed to perform at optimal levels. To properly "break-
in" your TAILGATER, play an audio source at medium volume for a few hours.
