Solution
Check the connection on your audio/video device. The RCA cables should be
connected to the AUDIO OUTPUT jacks. Check the connection on your rocker;
The RCA cables (red and white) must be in the AUDIO INPUT ports.
Check to make sure transmitter power is on and the power knob on the
Sound Rocker is on with the volume turned up.
Check to make sure that both the wireless channel on the transmitter and
the control panel are on the same: 1–1, 2–2, etc.
Turn knob to W (wireless) or IN (direct connection) for video games and
audio/video devices. Turn knob to MP3 for MP3 and portable CD/DVD players.
See page 2 for the correct knob position for the device you are playing.
Re-check your cable connections and make sure the outlet you're using
works.
Check the plug on the DC power adapter. When properly connected with the
volume knob on, the speakers will illuminate.
If the Sound Rocker still doesn't power up, try another electrical outlet.
Use the instructions provided by the video game console's manufacturer to
hook up the video game console to an intermediary device (such as a TV,
DVD, VCR, satellite receiver, etc.). Your intermediary device must have
both a coaxial input jack (the standard jack for cable TV) and an RCA audio
output jack.
Purchase an RCA replacement cable directly from the console manufacturer
or local audio accessory dealer.
The yellow RCA video cable connects to the VIDEO INPUT jack on the TV.
Refer to the instructions from the video game console's manufacturer to
connect any other video cables to your TV.
Check that all RCA audio connections are correct–red to red, white to white.
If your audio source is mono only, as found mainly on older model TVs and
VCRs, an RCA "Y" adaptor (1 male to 2 male, not included) is needed to send
the signal to both Pyramat speakers. Please note: the use of this type of
adapter will not produce a true stereo sound. For optimal performance, it is
recommended that you connect your Sound Rocker to stereo outputs only.
Turn knob to W (wireless) or IN (direct connection) for video games and
audio/video devices. Turn knob to MP3 for MP3 and portable CD/DVD players.
See page 2 for the correct knob position for the device you are playing.
Check that all RCA audio connections are correct–red to red, white to white.
Replace items immediately. Replacement cables can be purchased at your
local audio accessory dealer or at www.pyramat.com.
Replace immediately with an authorized Pyramat power adapter. Do not use
the unit until the damaged power adapter has been replaced by calling the
Pyramat service center.
