Operation
Power on the Portable Speaker Dock by pressing the Power/Volume knob
on the front panel. The light on the front panel surrounding the knob should
light up blue to indicate power is on. If the Radio does not power on at
the same time, press the Power button on the Radio. You should now hear
the Sirius or XM audio. If you do not, increase the volume of the Portable
Speaker Dock by turning the Power/Volume knob clockwise (+).
Your Radio remembers whether it was on or off when power to the Radio is
turned off at the time the Portable Speaker Dock is turned off. Therefore, if
your Radio was on at the time you turned the Portable Speaker Dock off, when
you turn the Portable Speaker Dock back on, the Radio will turn on also. If
the Radio was off at the time you turned off the Portable Speaker Dock, you’ll
need to turn the Radio on also when you turn on the Portable Speaker Dock.
Batteries
When the Portable Speaker Dock is powered on the light on the front panel
surrounding the Power/Volume knob is normally blue. When the light turns
red, that indicates the battery power is low. Replace the batteries.
