(solar energy) and regular electric power (AC-DC adapter) These wireless speakers features robust weatherproof housing so you have the flexibility to enjoy your music system anywhere outside your home on your deck or porch, in the yard, around the pool, driveway, or any other outdoor environments. This hybrid system of power allows the user to use the speaker in places where conventional power sources cannot be obtained. As long as the user has access to sunlight, the speaker can be used. The user can enjoy the freedom of movement because this product gives them the ability to choose where they want to use it. The transmitter sends 912 MHz/913MHz audio signals through walls and floors to the speakers, wherever they are placed up to 150 feet away. The transmitter system scans for these signals to ensure an interference-free signal for optimal clarity. With the remote control, you are allowed to relax and enjoy clear sound from the comfort of your seat. You can adjust the volume by using the wireless remote control that is included with this unit. This product promotes environmental awareness and the use of alternative energy sources. 1 How Solar Energy works?
During the day, the solar panel will convert solar power from the sun into a useable form to recharge special solar battery. How long the batteries will last depends on the placement of your product, weather conditions and seasonal light availability. PLEASE CHARGE THE SOLAR PRODUCT FOR ONE FULL DAY BEFORE FIRST USE. (Either by Sunlight or DC power) Choosing and Ideal Location Choose an outdoor location with full, direct sunshine where the SOLAR panel will be able to receive at least 6 hours of sunlight each day. Shady locations will influence the charging of the batteries. Shorter exposures to sunlight will reduce the amount of charging time for the batteries by sunlight and the working time of the receiver/speaker. You can also charge the receiver/speaker outdoors during the daytime and take in back indoors for use. Features

WORKING MODE. STANDBY MODE. LOW POWER/RECHARGE NEEDED 4. Changing the volume can be done by using the remote control that is included with the product. 5. If the Red LED light is flashing, the remote cannot be use to wake up system. The system will require charging by either Solar Energy or the conventional plug in source as the power of the receiver/speaker has 4 been depleted. 6. The receiver/ speaker can be recharged using both sunlight o the DC adapter (larger one). When using the DC adapter, simply plug the adapter end into the speaker unit and then plug prong end into a wall plug. The system requires 8-10 hours of recharge time. It is recommended that this charging time be observed when charging either by sunlight or when using the DC adapter. The receiver/speaker can be used even when it is being recharged. 7. When charging the receiver/speaker using sunlight be sure to place the unit in the direct path of sunlight. Make sure to place the unit where there is proper exposure of sunlight to the solar panel on the top of the unit. Be sure also to clear the top of the solar panel to make sure that enough sunlight reaches the solar panel on the unit.
