Overview

The Fender Passport Wireless Systems are unique, extremely simple, yet effective systems, which provide high quality, reliable wireless microphone
operation.

The Fender Passport Wireless System combines high technology design with the latest construction methods and high quality components for
superior performance in all applications. Fender’s fifty-plus years of experience in building professional instruments gives us a clear understanding of
the importance of reliable and consistent operation show after show. Your choice of this high quality system will result in years of reliable service.

Design Notes

In keeping with the principles of ease of use and reliability, the Passport Wireless System accessories for the Passport family of products is designed
to require little or no additional operations or adjustments before each use. In fact these wireless systems require less set-up than even the normal
wired microphone! Once installed, the only requirement of the operator is to make sure the microphone/ transmitter is fitted with a fresh battery.

Systems

The Passport Wireless Handheld System

Contains a handheld wireless microphone (transmitter) and custom-designed docking receiver.

The Passport Wireless Executive System

Contains a belt-pack transmitter, a lavalier microphone, a headset microphone, an instrument cable, and a custom designed docking receiver.

An additional transmitter may be purchased separately to compliment either system. Make sure to order any additional transmitters in the correct
frequency. Consult your Fender dealer for details and options.

Wireless Components

Transmitters

Handheld Microphone (Handheld System)

The Fender Handheld microphone and transmitter is a high quality microphone combined in a compact and lightweight package. The microphone
element is a professional, electret-condenser type with very low handling noise, excellent frequency response and cardioid pattern characteristics.

The Handheld microphone uses a 9v battery in the lower battery housing. To replace, simply remove the bottom section by twisting counter
clockwise. Note the plus and minus signs and make sure to insert the battery in the correct direction and orientation. Take care to not cross threads in
the housing when replacing.

An ON/OFF switch is the only control on the unit. When the switch is moved to the ON position the LED indicator should momentarily flash red. If
the LED stays on, the battery level is too low for normal operation.
