POWERING THE PEBBLE V3
To power up the Creative Pebble V3, connect it to your PC or Mac via theUSB-C cable.
If your PC or Mac does not have aUSB-C port, we’ve included a USB-C to USB-A converter that you can use if necessary.
Alternatively, you can also power the Creative Pebble V3 with a wall adapter* and connect your MP3 player or other analog devices via an AUX-in cable*.
*Wall adapter and AUX-in cable not included. For the wall adapter, you can check out the Creative 30W PD Adapter at the Creative Store.
SWITCHING ON / VOLUME
To switch on the Creative Pebble V3, simply turn the volume knob clockwise. The LED indicator will be in blue when the speaker is switched on.
If the Creative Pebble V3’s volume remains low even when the speakers are at maximum volume:
- Ensure that your device’s (e.g., laptop, desktop,p or mobile phone) volume is turned up. The Creative Pebble V3’s volume is independent of youdevice; both will need to be turned up to an acceptable level.
- If the audio level remains low, the Creative Pebble V3 is most likely not receiving sufficient power from your device. This is a common occurrence found in older computers and laptops. We recommend that you connect the speakers directly to a wall adapter and use an AUX-in cable for the audio output.
