How Do I Begin Using My Treó 10?
Before you can use your Treó 10 jukebox, you
need to get it charged and loaded with music.
You can do that using the accessories included
with your jukebox.
Charging the Battery
Your Treó 10 comes with a rechargeable Lithium Ion battery that, once charged, lasts for
approximately six hours of continuous operation. The battery is fully rechargeable and
should last for years, even with extensive use.
You must charge your battery before using
your Treó 10 for the first time. To charge the
battery:
1. To begin charging the battery, plug the
provided AC Power Adaptor into the
External Power jack on the right side of
your jukebox. Connect the other end to a
wall outlet. Your Treó 10 will last for six
hours of continuous operation on a fully
charged battery.
EXTERNAL
POWER
Do not use any other type of
external power adaptor. It will
damage the jukebox.
Once you connect to external
power, you can immediately
begin using your player.
However, it takes approximately
three (3) hours to fully charge
the battery.
