DIAGRAM AND PARTS DESCRIPTION


1.

Instrument / Microphone
Input with Volume Control
(1/4"):
This mono input
accepts a 1/4" input such as
a microphone, guitar, or
other musical instrument.

2.

Auxiliary input: This stereo
1/8” input can be used to
connect a CD player, MP3
player, or other audio
source.

3.

Bluetooth: The Paired LED
will be lit when a device is
paired to TAILGATER
BLUETOOTH. This LED will
not be lit when TAILGATER
BLUETOOTH is first
powered on (unless it was
previously paired with a
device). Press the
Disconnect button to
disconnect a paired Bluetooth device.

4.

Master Volume Control: This adjusts the speaker’s
main mix volume, which includes
Instrument/Microphone Input, Auxiliary Input, Tuner,
and the audio of a paired Bluetooth device.

5.

Radio Selector: This switch sets the tuner to AM or FM
or turns the tuner off. (Note: This switch does not turn
the unit's power off – just the tuner.)

6.

LCD: Displays the current radio station.

7.

Tuner: Use these buttons to search for a radio station.
To "scan" (jump to the next available station), hold this
down for a few seconds until it starts to seek a station.
Unit will remember the last station you were on and
start at that station when you power off and power on
again.

8.

Power LED: Indicates whether TAILGATER
BLUETOOTH is on or off.

9.

Dock Charge: Connect your device’s charge cable
here to charge it. USB charging only functions when the
unit’s power is turned on. Note: Users with iPad (3

rd

generation) may experience slower charging. We recommend charging with the screen locked when using iPad (3

rd

generation).

10.

Device Cradle: Place your iPad/iPod touch®/iPhone®, Android® or other device here to be held. These can be
connected via Bluetooth or to aux input using the included 1/8” to 1/8” cable. Note: It is recommended to remove your
iPad or other device from the cradle before transporting or traveling with TAILGATER.

11.

Antenna: Adjust this telescoping FM antenna to get the best radio reception.
Note: To prevent accidental damage, we recommend rotating the antenna only when it is extended horizontally. Also,
retract the antenna when the Tuner is not in use. Note: When using AM radio if you have a Bluetooth device that is
paired, this will cause poor AM reception. Unpair your Bluetooth device in order to listen to AM radio.

12.

Power Cable Input (IEC): Insert the included power cable here to charge the unit. Note that the TAILGATER
BLUETOOTH can run off the power adapter while it simultaneously charges the battery. The charge indicator illuminates
when the battery is charging.

13.

Voltage Selector*: If your unit has a voltage selector switch,
change its setting only when necessary (e.g., when traveling
to a country or region with a different voltage). Selecting an
improper voltage setting can damage the unit. To change its
setting, only remove *one* screw of the cover and slide it
aside to expose the selector.

14.

Power ON/OFF Switch: Turns TAILGATER BLUETOOTH on
or off. Please note that while TAILGATER BLUETOOTH is
connected to a power source, it does not need to be powered
on to charge the battery.

15.

Battery Level Indicator: While the unit is powered ON and
unit is not plugged in, these four lights indicate the power left
in the battery. Battery life varies based on volume and usage.








*WARNING: If your unit has a voltage
selector switch, change its setting only when
necessary (e.g., when traveling to a country
or region with a different voltage). Selecting
an improper voltage setting can damage the
unit. To change its setting, only remove *one*
screw of the cover and slide it aside to
expose the selector.
