ENGLISH

First charge

When using the speaker for the first time, you
need to fully charge the battery.
•
Make sure that the speaker is off, i.e. that
the "POWER" switch is turned to OFF.
•
Connect the speaker to the mains power
supply through the VDE plug or the DC
MAIN INPUT plug, by means of a 15Vdc
power supply, not included in the kit.
•
The red "LIMITER" LED will blink to
indicate that the speaker is under charge.
•
The battery charging symbol will remain
visible on the display; it will disappear
after 20", if no operations have been
performed in the meanwhile.

Subsequent charges

You need to check the battery charge before
using the speaker. Checking it is required as,
even when it is not used, the battery efficiency
decreases along time.
Turn on the speaker using the "POWER" switch
and check the "LIMITER" LED ; if it is steadily on
the battery is depleted and the speaker can only
be used for a very short time. In this case we
recommend that you charge the battery.
The battery charging status is shown on the
display.
To recharge the battery perform the operations
listed in paragraph "First charge".
The charging time varies according to the battery
status, and may range between approximately 1
and 15 hours.

Battery protection

The speaker includes a circuit ensuring proper
battery operation and preventing it from getting
fully discharged.
The tripping of the protection in question
indicates that the battery operating voltage has
dropped below
(approximately 9.5-10 volt).
31
the minimum set point
The red "LIMITER" LED will light up and remain
steadily on, then the speaker will be turned off.
The delay between the two stages depends on
the use.
Speaker operation will be automatically restored
when the battery is recharged.

MAINS POWER SUPPLY

The READY 4 MK2 speaker may be directly
powered from the 100-240Vac 50-60Hz mains
through the VDE connector. Before connecting
the mains outlet, check that the mains outlet
supply parameters are correct. To switch on the
speaker turn the "POWER" switch to "EXTERNAL
POWER". In this condition, the battery will be
partially charged while in use.
ATTENTION!
The VDE socket of the READY 4 MK2
speaker is the device allowing to disconnect
the unit from the mains; as a consequence, it
must always be easily accessible when the
speaker is in use.
POWER SUPPLY THROUGH AN AC/DC
ADAPTER
The speaker can be powered through connector,
by means of the 15Vdc 3AMAX adapter (not
included in the kit). To switch on the speaker turn
the "POWER" switch to "EXTERNAL POWER". In
this condition, the battery will be partially
charged while in use.
ATTENTION!
For operation with the AC/DC adapter,
only use the model specified in this manual.
