INCLUDED ITEMS
2. Screw the soundbar’s right speaker section onto the portion of the threaded rod
that is protruding from the left speaker. When the speaker is threaded all the way
onto the rod and tightened securely the fronts of both speakers should be properly
aligned.
3. Attach the bottom bridge plate tothe two speakers, using the small
hex wrench and 4 of the bridge plate screws.
4. Connect the umbilical cables between the two speakers.
6. Attach the rear bridge plate to the two speakers, using the small hex wrench and
the remaining 4 bridgeplatescrews.
5. Before attaching the rear bridge plate, you will need to set the Input Level switch,
Auto Turn-On switch and Gain control:
a. If you will be connecting the soundbar’s audio inputs to the pre-outs of a car
stereo head unit or other line-level source, set the Input Level switch in the
“Lo” position. If you will be connecting the soundbar to the speaker-level
outputs of a car stereo head unit, set the Input Level switch in the “Hi”
position.

adapters to connect the source unit’s speaker wires to the soundbar’s audio input
cable, as shown in the illustration below.
2. Position the soundbar in the desired location against the vehicle mounting bar. Use
4 of the supplied mounting bracket bolts to secure each bracket top to a bracket
base. Two sets of bolts are supplied, allowing the soundbar to be mounted to
pipes from 1” (25mm) to 3-1/2” (89mm) in diameter.
a. When the soundbar is in the correct position, tighten the mounting bracket
adjustment screws as tight as possible using your fingers, then insert the
supplied small hex wrench into the holes on the adjustment screws and use
it as a lever to secure the screws as firmly as possible.
3a. Run one end of one safety harness wire through one of the soundbar’s harness
attachment loops, and use the supplied clamp to secure the wire.
IMPORTANT: Be sure to tighten the bolts on the clamp as far as they will go and
test the connection to be sure that the safety harness wire is secure in the clamp.

If you have connected the soundbar’s remote (blue/white) to the vehicle audio
system’s remote wire, the soundbar will automatically turn on whenever the audio
system is turned on.
When the soundbar in in Standby, making a connection to the 3.5mm audio cable
will automatically turn on the soundbar and switch it to the 3.5mm input. If there is no
connection to the 3.5mm audio cable, pressing “Play” on a connected Bluetooth
device will automatically turn on the soundbar and the device will play through the
soundbar.
To put the soundbar in standby, press the Standby button.
The soundbar will automatically revert to standby when the vehicle’s audio system is
turned off and no audio is detected for five minutes from a connected Bluetooth
device, andthe high-leveland 3.5mm audioinputs.
Selecting an Input
The soundbar automatically selects the audio input based on the following priorities:
Priority 1: 3.5mm audio cable. Whenever there is a physical connection to this cable it
will have priority over the other inputs, even if no audio is playing through it. To listen to
another input, disconnect this cable.
Priority 2: Bluetooth. When there is no connection to the soundbar’s 3.5mm cable, a
connected Bluetooth device has priority and will play through the soundbar whenever
its “play” button is pressed.
Bluetooth Pairing
To pair a Bluetooth device with the soundbar, press the soundbar’s Bluetooth
button (the Bluetooth indicator will flash), go to the device’s Bluetooth menu and
pair it with the soundbar. The soundbar’s Bluetooth indicator will remain lit when it
is connected to a Bluetooth device.
Bluetooth Party Mode
The soundbar can maintain connection with up to 3 paired Bluetooth devices at
same time. The last connected device to enter the “play” mode will have its audio
play throughthe soundbar,placing any otherconnected devicesin “pause.”This
allows up to 3 people to share the soundbar, playing songs in turn. Pairing a 4th
device will disconnect the first paired device from the soundbar (although it will
remain paired).
Making a connection to the soundbar’s 3.5mm audio cable will override a Bluetooth
device, even if it is playing though the soundbar at the time.
Priority 3: Audio system head unit. When there is no connection to the soundbar’s
3.5mm cable and all connected Bluetooth devices are paused, the audio system
connected to the soundbar’s black RCA audio cable will play through the soundbar.
Making a connection to the soundbar’s 3.5mm audio cable or pressing “play” on a
connected Bluetoothdevice willoverride theblack RCA audioinput, evenif itis playing
though the soundbar at the time.
Controlling the Soundbar’s Volume
The soundbar’s volume is controlled by the volume of the source device playing
through it.
