ATTENTION: Improper AC adapters and/or tips can result in battery or capacitor explosion
hazards and device damage. The O2 strictly requires an AC‐to‐AC adapter, as specified below.

PLEASE NOTE: AC/DC adapters are very different from AC/AC adapters. Manufacturers commonly abbreviate
and refer to all types simply as "AC Adapters", which gives no indication of their actual output. Be aware that
most adapters are in fact AC/DC type, which supply DC current. These power adapters are used with laptops,
game consoles, computer peripherals, etc., and are not compatible with the Objective2.
The O2 strictly requires an AC‐to‐AC transformer, with minimum 14VAC output.
Charging Instructions
1. Connect an AC power adapter to the 14‐20 VAC Jack, then connect AC adapter to wall. Amplifier can
be used simultaneously.
2. Charge time for included NiMH batteries is 8‐24 hours.
3. O2 charges indefinitely at a low current (no charge status!). Remove power adapter as desired.
