Notes: For the sake of simplicity, throughout this manual we have
used the term “source” when describing connections and operation.
This would apply to any device such as an A/V receiver, audio
component, computer or portable music player.
The JBL On Air Control 2.4G is designed for use in most countries
worldwide, depending upon local regulations.
It includes 120V – 230V, 50/60Hz universal power supplies for the
transmitter module and the active speaker. While we have included
the two most commonly used AC cords with this product, your AC
electrical outlet may require the use of a different AC cord. For your
safety, it is essential to use an AC cord that is fully compatible with
your local electrical system. When in doubt, please consult your
local JBL dealer or distributor.
The JBL On Air may be connected to your source in several ways.
First, determine how you would like to use the JBL On Air
Control 2.4G; then follow the setup instructions for that application.
