USER MANUAL
(iPod/iPhone/iPad not Included)
PLEASE READ THIS USER MANUAL COMPLETELY BEFORE OPERATING
THIS UNIT AND RETAIN THIS BOOKLET FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.

DEAR JENSEN® CUSTOMER
Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you've just purchased is only the start of your musical
enjoyment. Now it's time to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your equipment offers.
This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association's Consumer Electronics Group want you to get
the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound come through loud and
clear without annoying blaring or distortion and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing "comfort level" adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what
sounds "normal" can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by setting your
equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
Start your volume control at a low setting.
Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.
We Want You Listening For a Lifetime
Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime of
fun and enjoyment. Since hearing damage from loud noise is often
undetectable until it is too late, this manufacturer and the
Electronic Industries Association's Consumer Electronics Group
recommend you avoid prolonged exposure to excessive noise.
Customer's Record:
The serial number of this product is found on its bottom. You should note the serial number of this unit in the
space provided as a permanent record of your purchase to aid in identification in the event of theft of loss.

POWER SUPPLY SOURCES
This Docking Speaker System operates using the included AC Adaptor with 12V 4000mA (center-positive)
output and is compatible with standard 120V~ 60Hz AC household power.
Note: Do not use a different AC adaptor other than the one included. Your iPad, iPhone, iPod may fail to
charge and you could damage the dock and/or the Apple device that is docked. A fire hazard can also occur
due to system overloading.
The remote control works on one 3V type CR2032 lithium battery (Included).
CONNECTING THE UNIT TO THE AC ADAPTOR POWER
Plug the AC Adaptor DC plug into the DC Jack at the back of main unit. Plug the ac adaptor power cable
into a household 120V~ 60Hz AC outlet. This unit has a polarized AC plug with one wide blade and one
narrow blade. This plug will only fit into a matching polarized AC outlet. This is a safety feature to reduce
the possibility of electric shock. If this plug will not fit in your AC outlet, you probably have an outdated
non-polarized outlet. You should have your out-dated outlet changed by a qualified, licensed electrician.
Do not file the wide blade on the plug, or use an adaptor to make the plug fit onto your outlet. This defeats
the safety feature and could expose you to electric shock.
CAUTION:
TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK,
MATCH WIDE BLADE OF AC PLUG TO WIDE SLOT.
