as diagrammed inside the battery compartment.
3. Replace the battery compartment cover on the bottom of the speaker.
Note: Place the rubber cap in the speaker power input jack when using batteries.
DO NOT mix batteries with different chemistry types (for example, a zinc battery with an alkaline
battery).
DO NOT mix new and used batteries. DO NOT leave batteries installed in the product when
not in use for long periods. Always remove old, weak or worn-out batteries promptly and recycle or
dispose of them in accordance with local and national regulations.
Powering the Speaker
There are two options to power your wireless speaker: using the included AC power adapter or
using 6 AA batteries (not included).
Warning: This product is designed to work with line level outputs or headphone outputs only.
DO NOT connect it directly to speaker outputs as it will permanently damage the transmitter.

About Variable-Level Audio Outputs:
A variable-level output, such as a headphone jack or certain RCA-type outputs, provides an
audio signal that changes with the volume level set on the audio source. As the volume of the
audio source is adjusted up and down, so is the audio signal strength sent to the transmitter.
This can affect the quality of sound generated by the speaker, and may require an adjustment
of the volume level of the audio source to produce a signal strong enough for the transmitter.
Hint: On most bookshelf-type or compact stereo systems, inserting a headphone plug into
the headphone jack results in automatic cutoff of the regular, or hard-wired speakers.
Hint: Most TVs, regardless of age or price, have variable outputs. If you are unsure which
of your TV audio outputs is fi xed, refer to the TV instruction manual. Some TVs have
outputs that can switch between variable and fi xed. When given a choice, fi xed is always
recommended.
Troubleshooting
The following troubleshooting guide takes you through some of the more common problems
associated with the installation and/or operation of a wireless system. If the problem persists,
please call toll-free at 1-800-732-6866 or visit www.araccessories.com.
Issue: Cause and solution:
No sound • Check that the transmitter AC power adapter is fully inserted into the wall outlet and
the power cord from the AC adapter is fi rmly connected to the transmitter power
input jack.
Confi rm that the speaker is turned on and tuned to the transmitter—
the indicator light on the front of the speaker should be solid blue (not blinking).
• If you’re using the power adapters, confi rm that both (for the speaker and for the
transmitter) are fully inserted into their wall outlets and the adapter power cords are
rmly connected to the power input jacks on the transmitter or speaker.
or
• If you’re using batteries for the speaker, check that they are fresh and inserted with
correct polarity (+, –).
• Check that the audio source component (stereo, MP3 player, etc.) is turned on and
transmitting sound as it normally should.
• Make sure the volume on your audio source is turned up.
• Check that the speaker volume is turned up.
• If you are using a Tape 2 Monitor output from your receiver/amp as the audio
output, check that you have pr the Tape Monitor/Tape 2 button on the front of essed
the receiver. This will turn on the Tape 2 outputs, which may not have been active.
Issue: Cause and solution:
No sound/
distortion/
static
• When using battery power, make sure the batteries are fresh and replace if
necessary.
• Check that the speaker’s indicator light is solid blue (not blinking).
• Change the position of the channel select switch (1, 2 or 3) to change the operating
frequency. Then press the AutoScan button on the speaker’s back panel to make the
speaker retune.
• Change the location of the transmitter. Place it as high and away from obstructions
as possible. Avoid placing the transmitter directly on top of or behind a TV.
• Move the transmitter and speaker closer together. Sending the signal through
certain materials, such as glass, tile, and metal, can decrease the effective
transmitting distance of the system.
More Helpful Information
About Fixed-Level Audio Outputs
A fi xed-level, or line-level, audio output is considered ideal since it provides an audio signal
unchanged by adjustments to the audio source volume control.
Hint: Fixed-level audio outputs from stereo receivers/amps will typically be designated as
Tape (or Record) outputs or DVR/DVD-R audio output connections.
Fixed-level outputs from TVs are usually marked as ‘Constant,’ ‘Fixed,’ or ‘Select.’ If they are not
marked as such, they are probably variable outputs (see “About Variable-Level Audio Outputson
the next page). Outputs from DVD players are almost always xed.
Hint: When connecting to the audio outputs of a DVD player, remember that the DVD player
must be showing a TV channel for sound to be produced.
1. Press the On/Off button on the side of the speaker
to turn it on. The indicator light on the front of the
speaker blinks while the speaker is tuning to the
transmitter. The indicator light turns solid blue when
the speaker is tuned to the transmitter—you should
hear sound coming from the speaker now.
Note: If the speaker is not tuned or if the transmitter
is not connected properly, the indicator light will
continue blinking. If this occurs, please see the
troubleshooting section of this manual.
2. Adjust the volume on the speaker as desired.
3. Set up the speaker for mono or stereo operation using the switch on the bottom of the
AWS6 speaker.
a) Monaural operation: The monaural mode (mono) is recommended when using a single
AWS6 by itself. For monaural operation, set the L/M/R switch to “M” on each speaker.
b) Stereo operation: You need an additional AWS6 speaker for the stereo option. Set the
L/M/R switch to “L” on the speaker located to the left from the listener, and set the other
speaker to the “R” position.
Notes:
The speaker automatically retunes if it loses the transmitter’s signal. You the can also press
AutoScan button on the side of the speaker to retune the speaker at any time.
The transmitter turns off automatically if there is no audio signal present for a prolonged period.
Interference in the form of static and/or distortion can sometimes be heard. If this occurs,
confi rm the transmitter/speaker adjustments and indicators. If the problem persists, refer to the
Troubleshooting section of this manual.
Pairing the Speaker System
2. Set the channel select switch on the back of the transmitter
to one of the transmitter’s three broadcast frequencies: 1,
2 or 3. If you experience poor reception or interference, try
choosing a different frequency by moving the channel select
switch to another position.
When the transmitter is receiving an audio signal and is
ready, the SIGNAL indicator turns solid green.
Turning the Speaker Off
1. Press the On/Off button on the side of the speaker to turn the speaker off.
2. Confi rm that the speaker is off by verifying that the indicator light on the speaker’s front
panel is no longer illuminated.
