In order to charge the battery, the powercable must be connected to the mains socket.3: fully charged battery.2: Battery half charged.1: low battery, please recharge it soon.LOW: low battery, connect the unit to the mains.
POWER SUPPLY SECTION
- POWER ON/OFFUse this switch to turn On/Off the unit.
- MAINS INPUTIEC power socket with integrated fuse-holder. Plug the power cord into this socket, but make sure the device is switched off before connecting the power cord to mains. For your safety, never disconnect the earth lead.

- BATTERY OPERATIONThis selector allows you to activate or deactivate the battery included inside the unit. Set the selector to OFF if the system is not used for a long time, in order to preserve the life of the battery itself.
NOTES ON BATTERY USE
The average battery life after a complete charge cycle is approximately 8 hours, a value that can decrease to almost half according on system audio level.This duration also depends on other factors such as:– usage environment temperature (generally the battery discharges more quickly at low temperatures)– progressive state of wear due to the charge / discharge cycles– possible improper useThe average time required for full recharge – depending on several factors – is about 6 hours.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR CORRECT DISPOSAL OF VRLA (LEAD-ACID VALVE REGULATED) BATTERIES
CAUTION: Under normal conditions of use and operation of the device, there are no hazards or risks for the lead-acid battery. However it is recommended to take note of the following characteristics and adopt following safety precautions.
- VRLA batteries include an electrolyte containing diluted sulfuric acid. Sulfuric acid has corrosive effect and can cause severe chemical burn
- The lead compounds are classified as toxic (if ingested)
- In case of spillage use a binder, such as sand, to absorb spilled acid; use quicklime/ sodium carbonate to neutralize; dispose applying local regulations; do not allow entry into sewers, ground or waterways.
- During the charge phase, or during operation, the lead-acid batteries may develop hydrogen and oxygen gas, which in certain circumstances may form an explosive mixture.
- The lead-acid may contain a considerable amount of energy, which can be a high current source as well as a source of serious electrical shock in the event of a short circuit.
- In case of fire don’t use water, but only fire extinguishing media like CO2 or dry powder extinguishing agent.
- To replace always refer to a qualified center.
- Keep indoors and away from heat – lead-acid batteries are not subject to freezing up to a temperature of -50°C (-58°F).
- Whenever possible, charge the battery completely. Never store it completely empty or half empty. If the device is inactive for a long period, disconnect the battery, covers the terminals and store the battery in a dry place away from heat sources, and regularly recharge the battery.
CAUTION: This device contains a valve-regulated lead-acid VRLA battery, used batteries are considered toxic waste and must be disposed in compliance with local regulations.
MEDIA PLAYER SECTION
In addition to the following 4 Media Player operating keys, this section includes the user interface display.
- MODESelect the type of input or connected device. Pressed once it activates the LINE / AUX input, pressed twice it switches to BLUETOOTH (bt) sync, otherwise to USB; in the absence of connected inputs it shows ND = NO DEVICE
PLAY/PAUSEPress this button to start (PLAY) or pause (PAUSE) track playback

The MP3 player is equipped with Bluetooth ® technology, which makes it possible to play audio files from another external device (such as a Smartphone) on your iROLLER 8 as long as the distance between the two devices is within 10 meters. To synchronize and connect the MP3 player with a device equipped with Bluetooth ® technology, use the following procedure:
- Briefly press the MODE button until when the bt logo flashes.
