Rechargeable Batteries

Rechargeable lead-acid batteries are the same type used in automobiles. As with your car

battery, how you use this battery has a significant impact on its lifespan. With proper use and

treatment, a lead-acid battery can last for years. Here are some recommendations for getting

the longest life from the internal battery.

General Usage Fully charge the battery before using it.

Charge the battery completely after each use.

Storage For best product longevity, do not store at exceedingly hot (greater than

90°F/32°C) or exceedingly cold (less than 32°F/0°C) temperatures.

It is acceptable to leave your sound system plugged in. This will not

overcharge the battery.

If you leave the battery level low and do not charge it for 6 months, it may

permanently lose capacity.

Repair If the battery fails to charge, check your fuse near the power cable input. If your

fuse is intact and it still will not charge, contact ION Audio at ionaudio.com.

Disposal Bring the unit to a recycling center or dispose of in accordance with local

ordinances.

Outdoor Use and Care

Though Pathfinder 2 is water-resistant and able to tolerate splashing water, please review the

tips below to get the best performance from Pathfinder 2:

•Pathfinder 2 must only be used outdoors with power outlets or extension cords that are

rated for outdoor use.

•Bring Pathfinder 2 indoors during extreme weather.

•Please do not place Pathfinder 2 in standing water.

•Please do not connect the power cable to Pathfinder 2 in a wet environment. Make sure

the power input, power cable, and power outlet are all completely dry before making any

connections.

•WARNING: Keep any non-water-resistant devices (phones, music players, etc.) in a dry

place where they will not be affected by water and cause a risk of electric shock. Do not

place devices in the included storage bag, as it is not water-resistant.

Troubleshooting

If the sound is distorted: Try lowering the volume control of your sound source, musical

instrument, or microphone. Also, try to reduce the overall volume of Pathfinder 2 using the

Master Volume knob.

If there is too much bass: Try adjusting the tone or EQ control on your sound source to lower

the bass level. This will allow you to play the music louder before clipping (distortion) occurs.

If there is a high-pitched whistling noise when using microphones: This is probably

feedback. Point the microphone away from the speaker.

If there is poor AM reception: To adjust AM reception, move the entire unit.

If you can’t hear the microphone over the music volume: Turn down the music volume

from your source.

If you can’t play music from a flash drive: The USB port is only for charging USB devices.
