About Variable-Level Audio Outputs:A variable-level output, such as a headphone jack or certain RCA-type outputs, provides an audio signal that changes with the volume level set on the audio source. As the volume of the audio source is adjusted up and down, so is the audio signal strength sent to the transmitter. This can affect the quality of sound generated by the speaker, and may require an adjustment of the volume level of the audio source to produce a signal strong enough for the transmitter.Hint: On most bookshelf-type or compact stereo systems, inserting a headphone plug into the headphone jack results in automatic cutoff of the regular, or hard-wired speakers.Hint: Most TVs, regardless of age or price, have variable outputs. If you are unsure which of your TV audio outputs is xed, refer to the TV instruction manual. Some TVs have outputs that can switch between variable and xed. When given a choice, xed is always recommended.TroubleshootingThe following troubleshooting guide takes you through some of the more common problems associated with the installation and/or operation of a wireless system. If the problem persists, please call toll-free at 1-800-732-6866 or visit www.araccessories.com.Issue: Cause and solution:No sound • Check that the transmitter AC power adapter is fully inserted into the wall outlet and the power cord from the AC adapter is rmly connected to the transmitter power input jack.• Conrm that the speaker is turned on and tuned to the transmitter— the indicator light on the front of the speaker should be solid blue (not blinking).• If you’re using the power adapters, conrm that both (for the speaker and for the transmitter) are fully inserted into their wall outlets and the adapter power cords are rmly connected to the power input jacks on the transmitter or speaker. or• If you’re using batteries for the speaker, check that they are fresh and inserted with correct polarity (+, –).• Check that the audio source component (stereo, MP3 player, etc.) is turned on and transmitting sound as it normally should.• Make sure the volume on your audio source is turned up.• Check that the speaker volume is turned up.• If you are using a Tape 2 Monitor output from your receiver/amp as the audio output, check that you have pressed the Tape Monitor/Tape 2 button on the front of the receiver. This will turn on the Tape 2 outputs, which may not have been active.Issue: Cause and solution:No sound/ distortion/static• When using battery power, make sure the batteries are fresh and replace if necessary.• Check that the speaker’s indicator light is solid blue (not blinking).• Change the position of the channel select switch (1, 2 or 3) to change the operating frequency. Then press the AutoScan button on the speaker’s back panel to make the speaker retune.• Change the location of the transmitter. Place it as high and away from obstructions as possible. Avoid placing the transmitter directly on top of or behind a TV. • Move the transmitter and speaker closer together. Sending the signal through certain materials, such as glass, tile, and metal, can decrease the effective transmitting distance of the system.More Helpful InformationAbout Fixed-Level Audio OutputsA xed-level, or line-level, audio output is considered ideal since it provides an audio signal unchanged by adjustments to the audio source volume control.Hint: Fixed-level audio outputs from stereo receivers/amps will typically be designated as Tape (or Record) outputs or DVR/DVD-R audio output connections. Fixed-level outputs from TVs are usually marked as ‘Constant,’ ‘Fixed,’ or ‘Select.’ If they are not marked as such, they are probably variable outputs (see “About Variable-Level Audio Outputs” on the next page). Outputs from DVD players are almost always xed.Hint: When connecting to the audio outputs of a DVD player, remember that the DVD player must be showing a TV channel for sound to be produced.Trademark(s) ® Registered www.araccessories.com MADE IN CHINA AW826 US IB 0012 Month Limited WarrantySpecicationsTransmitter • Omni-directional 900MHz broadcast• Effective transmitting range: up to 150 ft.

Press the On/Off button on the side of the speaker to turn it on. The indicator light on the front of the speaker blinks while the speaker is tuning to the transmitter. The indicator light turns solid blue when the speaker is tuned to the transmitter—you should hear sound coming from the speaker now. Note: If the speaker is not tuned or if the transmitter is not connected properly, the indicator light will continue blinking. If this occurs, please see the troubleshooting section of this manual. 2. Adjust the volume on the speaker as desired.3. Set up the speaker for mono or stereo operation using the switch on the bottom of the AW826 speaker.a) Monaural operation: The monaural mode (mono) is recommended when using a single AW826 by itself. For monaural operation, set the L/M/R switch to “M” on each speaker.b) Stereo operation: You need an additional AW826 speaker for the stereo option. Set the L/M/R switch to “L” on the speaker located to the left from the listener, and set the other speaker to the “R” position.Notes: The speaker automatically retunes if it loses the transmitter’s signal. You can also press the AutoScan button on the side of the speaker to retune the speaker at any time.The transmitter turns off automatically if there is no audio signal present for a prolonged period. Interference in the form of static and/or distortion can sometimes be heard. If this occurs, conrm the transmitter/speaker adjustments and indicators. If the problem persists, refer to the Troubleshooting section of this manual.Pairing the Speaker System2. Set the channel select switch on the back of the transmitter to one of the transmitter’s three broadcast frequencies: 1, 2 or 3. If you experience poor reception or interference, try choosing a different frequency by moving the channel select switch to another position. When the transmitter is receiving an audio signal and is ready, the SIGNAL indicator turns solid green.Turning the Speaker Off1. Press the On/Off button on the side of the speaker to turn the speaker off. 2. Conrm that the speaker is off by verifying that the indicator light on the speaker’s front panel is no longer illuminated.DC INCHANNEL1 2 3R AUDIO LINChannel select switchAdjusting the Transmitter1. Turn on your audio source (for example, A/V receiver, MP3 player, stereo, etc.) and play music at a normal listening volume.NoteIf the SIGNAL indicator on the transmitter does not turn on, please check the following:- Conrm the transmitter AC power adapter is securely connected.- Conrm the cable from the transmitter is securely connected to the audio source output (MP3 player, A/V receiver, etc.).- Conrm the audio source is playing audio and is turned up.Tuning the SpeakerFCC StatementThis equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules.
