IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Read and follow all the instructions listed in this manual. Follow all safety and procedural recommendations to prevent
damage to your self, your KICKER product, or your portable entertainment device.

The ZK350 should not be used near water or in an environment where exposure to liquids is possible. This includes
but is not exclusive to areas where splashing, dripping, leaks, spills, and exposure to rain can occur. Liquid containers
should not be placed on or near the ZK350 Stereo System. The ZK350 Stereo System should not be cleaned with liquid
cleaners. Use only a dry cloth to clean the ZK350. Only use the ZK350 in areas with adequate open ventilation allowing
at least 4” of space on all sides of the ZK350. Do not set the ZK350 on any surface or cover the ZK350 with any object
that could impede the airfl ow to and from the ZK350 Stereo System. The ZK350 should not be placed near any source
of heat. This includes but is not limited to stoves, radiators, heating elements, electronic heat sources, and areas where
excessive solar heat can be generated. Do not install the ZK350 near any fl ame or place any fl ammable objects near the
device. The power outlet used to provide power to the ZK350 should be accessible at all times. The polarized 2-prong
electrical plug has a wide blade and narrow blade that should fi t into the corresponding wide and narrow receiving
connections of your electrical outlet. Do not force the plug into the outlet. If the plug provided with the unit does not fi t,
consult with an electrician to upgrade the electrical outlet accordingly. The power cord should be situated in a way that
protects it from being pinched, walked on, tripped over, or accidentally pulled from the electrical outlet or the electrical
input on the ZK350. Do not run the cable through doorways or underneath objects that could damage the wire or
tear the insulating material surrounding the wire. Only use the manufacturer supplied power supply with the ZK350.
We recommend using a surge protector/power conditioner and unplugging the ZK350 during any electrical storms or
situations that could cause voltage fl uctuations in the electrical system.

USING THE SYSTEM MENU ROTARY CONTROL

The ZK350 Stereo System’s rotary control provides an intuitive user interface. The System Menu options listed on the
LED display below are available for adjustment by the rotary control. The rotary control knob is used as a push-button to
power on the ZK350 and to scroll through the menus available on the LED display. Turning the rotary control knob allows
you to adjust the parameters of the selected menu.

Figure 4

STBY DOCK

Use short pushes on the
rotary control knob to scroll
through menu selections. Use
a long push to turn the unit
on and off.

After plugging the power supply into the DC input on the back of the ZK350, the unit will be in “Standby” mode, as
displayed by the LED display on the System Menu. Turn the power on by pushing the rotary control button once. When
the power is on, the “DOCK” LED will be illuminated on the System Menu.

Volume: By default, the ZK350 will be in volume control mode. Turn the rotary knob to adjust the volume up or down.
The rotary control will automatically revert to volume control mode after a short time period if any other menus have been
selected.

To scroll through the other menus, simply use the rotary control as a push-button. Each single button push will take you
from one menu to the next, rotating through TREB>BASS>DOCK/AUX and back to the volume control.

Treble: To adjust the treble on the ZK350, use the rotary control as a push-button to scroll through the menus until the
“TREB” menu is displayed on the LED display. Turn the rotary control knob clockwise to increase treble and counter­clockwise to reduce treble.

Bass: To adjust the bass level on the ZK350, use the rotary control as a push-button to scroll through the menus
until the “BASS” menu is displayed on the LED display. Turn the rotary control knob clockwise to increase bass and
counterclockwise to reduce bass.

Input Source (DOCK/AUX): To enable the auxiliary input on the ZK350, an external device must be plugged into the
1/8” stereo auxiliary input on the back of the unit. Use the rotary control as a push-button to scroll through the menus
until your current input source (DOCK/AUX) is fl ashing. Turn the rotary control clockwise and counter-clockwise to switch
between AUX and DOCK input. You may also enable auxiliary input by using the mode button on your remote control to
cycle through menus, then pressing the up/down arrows to select your input source.

Standby: In “Standby” mode, the ZK350 will be powered down, but your docked Zune will continue to charge as long
as a power source is plugged into the DC input on the back of the ZK350. To enter standby mode simply press and hold
the rotary control button until the unit turns off and “STBY” is illuminated.

USING THE REMOTE CONTROL

The Infrared Remote Control enables you to control your Zune and access the ZK350 System Menu from a convenient
location. With the fully featured remote control it is easy to access all of your Zune’s music and/or video content.

If a Zune HD device is in use and set to internal display, the up, down, back and enter buttons will not function. If the
Zune HD device is set to TV Out, these functions will be restored. All other legacy Zune devices offer complete remote
functionality.

CONNECTING EXTERNAL DEVICES

To connect an external video display to the ZK350, make sure the video output is enabled on your Zune device. Connect
a standard RCA composite video cable from the composite video output on the back of the ZK350 to the RCA video
input on your external video display. See Figure 3. This is a pass-through connection. If there are any problems with your
external video display, refer to the Zune device manual or the instructions packaged with your external video display.

To connect an external audio device to the ZK350, enable Aux-In mode with the rotary or remote control as described in
the Input Source section on the previous page. Connect your line level device to the 1/8” stereo input on the back of the
ZK350. See Figure 3. If the sound is distorted, you may be overdriving the auxiliary input. Try turning down the external
device until the sound is no longer distorted.

To use an external audio device for output, connect the RCA outputs on the back of the ZK350 to the input(s) of your
third-party device. The audio output is at a fi xed level and not adjustable with the ZK350 volume control. Use your
external audio device to attenuate the input/output level.

To improve radio reception with your Zune device, connect the included FM antenna to the coaxial jack on the rear of the
ZK350.
