Bluetooth: The Paired LED will be lit when a
device is connected to TAILGATER ACTIVE.
This LED will not be lit when TAILGATER
ACTIVE is first powered on (unless it was
previously connected with a device). Press the
Bluetooth Disconnect button to disconnect a
connected Bluetooth device.
4.
Tuner: Use these buttons to search for a radio station. To "seek" (jump to the next available station),
hold this down for a few seconds until it starts to seek a station. The unit will remember the last station
you were on and start at that station when you power off and power on again.
5.
Radio Preset Buttons: There are 6 storage locations for FM stations, and 6 storage locations for AM
stations. When you move the am/fm/off switch to AM or FM, that action changes the bank of presets
you are on.
6.
LCD: Displays the current radio station.
7.
Radio Selector: This switch sets the tuner to AM or FM or turns the tuner off.
(Note: This switch does not turn the unit's power off – just the tuner.)
8.
Power LED: Indicates whether TAILGATER ACTIVE is powered on or off.
9.
Antenna: Adjust this FM antenna to get the best radio reception. To improve AM reception, move the
entire unit.
Note: To prevent accidental damage, we recommend rotating the antenna only when it is extended
horizontally. Lay the antenna down in its holder when the Tuner is not in use.
