The iK501 Stereo System’s rotary control provides an intuitive user interface. The System Menu options listed on the

Use the push-button selector to turn on the iK501 and to

Turn the rotary control to adjust
the system menu parameters.
After plugging the power supply into the DC input on the back of the iK501, the unit will be in “Standby” mode, as
displayed by the LCD screen on the System Menu. Turn the power on by pushing the rotary control button once. When
the power is on, both the “Kicker” logo and “Vol” will be displayed on the System Menu.
Volume: By default, the iK501 will be in volume control mode and “Vol” will be displayed on the LCD screen. Turn the
rotary knob to adjust the volume up or down. The rotary control will automatically revert to volume control mode after a
short time period if any other menus have been selected.
To scroll through the other menus, simply use the rotary control as a push-button. Each single button push will take you
from one menu to the next, rotating through Treb>Bass>Aux-In>Vol and back to the “Treb” treble control.
Treble: To adjust the treble on the iK501, use the rotary control as a push-button to scroll through the menus until the
“Treb” menu is displayed on the LCD screen. Turn the rotary control knob clockwise to increase treble and counter-
clockwise to reduce treble.
Bass: To adjust the bass level on the iK501, use the rotary control as a push-button to scroll through the menus
until the “Bass” menu is displayed on the LCD screen. Turn the rotary control knob clockwise to increase bass and
counterclockwise to reduce bass.
Auxiliary Input: To enable the auxiliary input on the iK501, an external device must be plugged into the 1/8” stereo
auxiliary input on the back of the unit. Use the rotary control as a push-button and scroll through the menus until “Aux-In”
is displayed. Turn the rotary control clockwise to enable the auxiliary input. When the auxiliary is enabled, the system
menu will display “ON”. Turn the rotary control counter-clockwise to disable the auxiliary input and return to iPod mode.
When the auxiliary input is disabled, the system menu will display “--”.
Standby: In “Standby” mode, the iK501 will be powered down, but your docked iPod will continue to charge as long as
a power source is plugged into the DC input on the back of the iK501. To enter standby mode simply press and hold the
rotary control button until the unit turns off and “Standby” is displayed. Note: 3rd Generation iPods are compatible with
the iK501 but will not charge while docked or respond to remote control playback functions.
