SPEAKER

We are craftspeople. We are musicians. We are KitSound™

And we all commit ourselves to achieving one shared goal:

Bringing people closer to their music. By truly understanding

music we stay true to its craft. Pure, rich, incredible sound.

We’ll settle for nothing less.

At KS we believe your music deserves to be showcased on great

quality products that don’t cost the earth. We might not all share

the same taste in music (the ferocious disputes on music forums

prove that), but whether it’s Irish folk, death metal or any number

of obscure genres which seem to be multiplying by the minute, the

artists responsible for connecting with you through their craft have

bared their souls to do so. And we think that’s worth celebrating.

Please read this manual carefully before use.

Aux

Use the micro USB to 3.5mm aux cable to connect the speaker

through the micro USB charge/data port. Once the cable is

connected to the Cadet and your device, to enable aux mode:

1. With the Cadet in Bluetooth mode, press the Power/Mode button

2. If there isn’t a micro SD card in the Cadet, the Cadet will beep

twice and the LED will be solid red and blue indicating it is in

aux mode

Power/Mode button twice to get to aux mode

heard through the Cadet

Volume is controlled on both the Cadet and the device. The

Play/Pause button becomes a mute button. Play/Pause and

Next track/ Previous track functions can only be controlled

on the device.

PLEASE NOTE:

Your device will have an internal ampliﬁer and if it is playing

digital files like MP3s it will also have an integrated DAC

(Digital Audio Converter). If you turn up the volume to 100%,

your device will be sending distorted signals to the Cadet.

To avoid this and to get the best sound quality from the speaker,

we recommend that you do not run your device any higher than

95% volume.

Hands-free (Bluetooth mode only)

When you have an incoming call, the music will pause and the

speaker will play a ring tone.
