$SOUNDBOKS-Portable-Bluetooth-Speaker- $8$$ SKAA & Bond Button

The following is the ofﬁcial SKAA RECEIVER USER’S GUIDE. It describes in detail how to operate and troubleshoot the Bond Button, located on the top of your SOUNDBOKS Go. The Bond Button is the control button for JOIN-mode through the wireless daisy chaining feature, TeamUP. Each SKAA® receiver has a Green List which remembers your favorite transmitters. A Green Indicator on your receiver means you are listening to a favorite or hunting
for one. Your receiver can also explore to ﬁnd new transmitters—an Amber Indicator means you are exploring for transmitters that are not on your Green List. A Cluster is a product with two or more pieces that behave as one. The Bond Button lets you select which transmitter you’re listening to. The Bond Button has the logo consisting of two arrows.

BATTERYBOKS & Charger

Charging the BATTERYBOKS

As mentioned in the GETTING STARTED section, the BATTERYBOKS needs to be charged for 3.5 hours before ﬁrst use out of the box. Remember to unplug your battery after it has been fully charged and never to leave it charging for more than 6 hours at a time, as this can potentially damage the battery. Here are the two ways of charging your BATTERYBOKS:

Charge the battery outside of the SOUNDBOKS Go
Insert the BATTERYBOKS DC Plug into the DC Input of your charger and plug the charger’s power supply cable into your nearest power outlet.
Charge the battery while it’s in the SOUNDBOKS Go Slide your BATTERYBOKS into the Battery Port on the back of your SOUNDBOKS Go. Once inserted, plug the DC Plug of the battery into the DC input on the top side of the battery compartment. Then attach the DC input of your charger to the DC Plug of your BATTERYBOKS.

IMPORTANT
Please note that you can still use your SOUNDBOKS Go, when both the BATTERYBOKS and the charger are connected. Never use the SOUNDBOKS Go without a BATTERYBOKS, i.e. by pluging the charger directly to the SOUNDBOKS Go.
