-Plug the 1/4” end of the coiled microphone cable into the 1/4” Input Jack on the P10 (#3 in drawing).
-Turn the Volume Control (#4) clockwise to turn on the P10, and adjust to desired volume.
Connecting another audio source to the P10
-The 1/8” Auxiliary input jack (#7) is available to connect a CD or Cassette player to the P10.

Charging the Battery
Very Important! - Before you use your P10, you must charge the bat- tery for at least four hours (or until the Battery Charge Indicator indi- cates the battery is fully charged). A single four hour charge will power the P10 for up to eight hours of continuous use.
The P10 has an auto
AC to DC power adapter
A power adapter is supplied with your P10. This adapter is used to recharge the battery. It is not designed to power the P10 from an AC source. Make sure the P10 is turned off when recharging the battery.
The power adapter converts AC power to DC power. The output of the power adapter is 18V DC. (The inner section of the connector is posi- tive).
Charging the Battery
Plug the barrel end of the cord into the DC power input jack (#) and plug the AC end into your AC power source.
Charging will begin immediately and the Battery Charge Indicator (#6) will show a blinking green light.
Battery Charge Indicator.
-Red light indicates battery is low and needs charging.
-Green, blinking indicates charging in progress.
-Solid green indicates battery is fully charged.
If the indicator does not immediately start to blink green, it may be due to excessive power drain of the battery. This is normal. The indicator should begin to blink after 10 to 15 minutes. If the battery charge indicator fails to light, it may be due to a faulty battery.
Replacing, or using a second Battery
With proper care and charging, it is unlikely that it will be necessary to replace the battery in the P10. If you plan on using the P10 for extended periods of time, you may want to purchase a second battery. The battery is a standard 12 volt 2.7 amp gel cell and is available from Fender directly, or from Authorized Fender Audio dealers. (Part number
To replace the battery:
-Open the battery compartment by pressing down on the two tabs at the top of the battery compartment. The door will hinge down.
-The battery is “spring loaded” behind an interior rear panel. Remove this panel by sliding it upwards.
-Remove the battery by pulling it out of the compartment. Replace the battery with another. The terminals on the battery should be on the “top” as you slide it into the compartment.
-Press the battery into the unit and replace the interior rear panel.
-Close the compartment door. Lift up the two tabs until they “click” into place.
