General Safety Instructions

Read the operating instructions carefully before putting the appliance into operation and keep the instructions including the warranty, the receipt and, if possible, the box with the internal packing. If you give this device to other people, please also pass on the operating instructions.

• To avoid the risk of fire or an electric shock, you should not expose the device to rain or moisture. Consequently, do not use the device in the immediate vicinity of water - for example near a bath tub, a swimming pool or in a damp cellar.
• Do not use the device in extremely hot, cold, dusty or damp places.
• Only use the device for private use and the intended purpose. This device is not intended for commercial use.
• Ensure that the power cord is not kinked, trapped or brought into contact with heat sources.
• Ensure that the power cord does not present a tripping hazard.
• Never touch the power plug or the cable with wet hands.
• Only connect the device at a properly installed plug socket. Pay attention that the specified voltage corresponds to the voltage of the plug socket.
• The power cord must always be easily accessible.
  • Always insert the batteries correctly.
• Do not cover up any ventilation openings with objects such as newspapers, tablecloths, curtains, etc.
• This appliance shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing water and that no object filled with liquids such as vases shall be placed on apparatus.
• Exposed ignition sources such as burning candles may not be placed onto the device.

English

• Never open the housing of the device. Incorrect repairs can constitute a considerable risk for the user. Should the device become damaged, in particular the mains supply cable, do not operate the device any longer, but rather have it repaired by an expert. Check the mains supply cable regularly for damage.
• For safety reasons a broken or damaged mains lead may only be replaced by an equivalent lead from the manufacturer, our customer service department or a similar qualified person.
• If the device is not used for a longer period, remove the plug connector from the plug socket or take out the batteries.

These symbols may be found on the machine and are intended to indicate the following:

The lightning symbol should advise the user of parts in the inside of the device which carry dangerously high voltage levels.

The symbol with an exclamation mark should advise the user of important operation or maintenance instructions in the accompanying documentation.

Devices bearing this symbol work with a "class 1 laser" for tracing the CD. The built-in safety switches should prevent the user being exposed to dangerous laser light, which is invisible to the human eye, when the CD compartment is opened.

These safety switches must not be bypassed or altered; otherwise there is a risk of being exposed to the laser beam.

Playing back music via Bluetooth

Bluetooth involves a technology for wireless radio connection of devices over a short distance. Devices with Bluetooth standard are transmitting between 2.402 and 2.480 GHz in the ISM band (Industrial, Scientific and Medical). Interference can be caused for example by WLAN-networks, DAB radios, cordless phones, or microwave ovens which work on the same frequency band.

This device offers you the possibility to use a Bluetooth-enabled device. The functional radius is limited to approx. 15 metres depending on the surroundings and the unit used.

If your playing device supports the A2DP profile (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile) and has a music-player function, then you can also wirelessly transfer music to the device. The A2DP profile involves a multi-vendor Bluetooth profile. By streaming, stereo-audio signals are wirelessly transferred between the playing device (source) and the receiving device. To be able to remotely control the source, the playback device must support the AVRCP profile (Audio Video Remote Control Profile).

Due to the different device manufacturers, models, and software versions, a full functionality cannot be guaranteed.

Logging on devices (Pairing)

Before you listen to music via the unit, you must pair the devices.

1. Ensure, that the Bluetooth function is activated in your player (e.g. mobile phone). For this, refer to the operation manual of your player.
2. Select the BLUETOOTH mode using the FUNCTION button (11). The control lamp PAIR will blink blue. Shortly after that, the device will beep two times. This signalizes that the device is in pairing mode.
3. Choose the Bluetooth menu in your player and register the device in your player. For this, refer to the operation

English

manual of your player. The device "AEG SR 4371" will show in your player as a selection.

i NOTE:

• Only one playback device can be connected with the device at one time. If the device is already connected with another playback device, the device will not appear in the BT selection menu.

• To disconnect an existing Bluetooth connection, keep the ▶ button (9) pressed down. The PAIR control lamp flashes blue.

• Now enter the password "0000" in your player, depending on the device manufacturers, model, and software version.

After successful pairing, the device will beep two times and the PAIR control lamp lights up blue. For the further procedure, please refer to the user manual of the playback unit. If possible, adjust the volume of the external unit to a comfortable level.

i NOTE:

• Depending on the device manufacturer, you need to perform the registration (PAIRING) again to connect the devices.
• In case of problems with the registration of a replay device, deactivate the WiFi-/ and mobile data function in your playback device.
• The Bluetooth compatibility cannot be ensured for devices (e.g. mobile phones) getting released in the future.
• To ensure an optimal connection, make sure that the battery of your player is completely charged.
• Some of the mobile phone brands have an energy-saving mode. Deactivate the energy-saving mode as it can otherwise result in problems during the data transfer through Bluetooth.
• To be able to transfer audio data, Bluetooth needs to stay activated in your player. Observe the operation manual of your player.
• If a mobile phone on which you are playing music receives a call, the music will be interrupted. However, the sound is not played back by the device. After you have ended the call, the devices are connected to each other again and playback continues.

Playing music via USB (1)

This device has been developed in line with the latest technical advances in the USB field. The wide range of different USB storage devices of all types which are currently on the market, unfortunately do not allow us to guarantee full compatibility with all USB storage devices. For this reason, in rare cases there may be problems in playing back files from USB storage devices. This is not a malfunction of the device. Only use commercially available USB sticks.

1. Press the FUNCTION button (11) repeatedly until "USB" is shown on the display.
2. Connect a USB storage device directly into the port. Playback will automatically start after a few seconds.

For operation, please refer to the section "Description of the control buttons".

i NOTE:

• Always directly connect a USB storage medium to the USB port to prevent any malfunctions.
• The USB port is not designed for charging external devices.
• Please note: The USB port is only intended for playing music from USB sticks. It only provides a low power (100 mA) power supply. This USB port is not suitable for using external 2.5" hard drives with start-up currents of up to 1100 mA. In order to play music from your smartphone, iPod or iPhone, connect the designated AUX IN socket.

ACAUATION:

Switch the device to a different operating mode before you remove the USB storage device.
