Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of a Rocketfish Wireless Outdoor

Speaker Kit that is part of the Rocketboost™ system. The Rocketboost

system implements an expandable Wireless Audio distribution

technology which is compatible with all Rocketboost products. All

Rocketboost products use a proprietary 2.4GHz communication

technology.

Simply combine the sender/receiver with the wireless speaker and

start enjoying music anywhere. With a 150-foot broadcast range, this

powerful wireless speaker system transmits through walls, floors, and

ceilings without the hassle of running wires. The main controls are

located on the wireless speaker itself, so you won't have to run back

and forth to adjust the volume. Red and blue lighting illuminates the

wireless speaker for convenient operations at night. The speaker

operates on eight batteries or from a wall socket using an AC adapter,

and offers you rich sounding bass and crisp treble.

9Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type

plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A

grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The

wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the

provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for

replacement of the obsolete outlet.

10 Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at

plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the

apparatus.

11 Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.

12 Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long

periods of time.

13 Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required

when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as

power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects

have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or

moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

14 To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this device to

rain, moisture, dripping, or splashing, and no objects filled with liquids,

such as vases, shall be placed on it.

15 The wall plug is the disconnecting device. The plug must remain readily

operable.

or the like.

Caution: Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the

same or equivalent type.

Warning: Read the Rating Label on the bottom of the unit for power input and other

safety information.

Caution - Proper Installation

Install the system in a place which is level, dry and neither too hot nor too cold. The

appropriate temperature is between 5° C and 35° C.

Install the system in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent internal heat

from building up inside the unit.

Caution - Proper ventilation

To avoid risk of electric shock and fire, and to prevent damage, locate

the apparatus for adequate ventilation.

How does Rocketboost™ work?

Rocketboost technology can connect all audio devices throughout

your home to form a convenient, private, and secure home audio

network.

Every Rocketboost network must contain a device called a manager,

which directs network data traffic and helps devices join the network.

The network can have only one manager, which is selected using the

Hub switch on the back of all Rocketboost transmitters. See the User

Guide for instructions on joining devices to the network.

Each transmitter sends its own, two-channel stereo signal around the

network, and any receiver can access the audio signal from any of the

transmitters.

Rocketboost also features an innovative volume control that can be

changed at the receiver or the transmitter. For example, when the

stream's volume level is changed, all receivers listening to that stream

have the same change in volume.

Rocketboost also features a global mute feature that instantly

silences all connected devices. When turning off mute, only the

stream that received the “unmute” command is effected.

We hope you enjoy your new Rocketboost system. Remember that

it's designed to grow with your home entertainment needs, and that

it's easy to add a new device to the network as you expand your

entertainment system.
