Use

You have two ways to use the device: by cable or cordless via Bluetooth.

By cable

1. Connect the 3.5 mm stereo RCA cable to an external audio source. If required, use a suitable adapter (not included).
2. Insert the other end of the cable into the AUX IN jack (2) on the unit. The indicator light (7) lights up.

4. Control the volume on the external audio source.

Cordless via Bluetooth

i NOTE:

When an audio cable is connected to the AUX IN jack (2), a connection cannot be established via Bluetooth.

Bluetooth is a technology for wireless radio connection of devices over a short distance. Devices with Bluetooth standard transmit between 2.402 and 2.480 GHz in the ISM band (Industrial, Scientific and Medical). Interferences can however be caused by WLANs, networks, wireless telephones, or microwave ovens, for example, which operate in 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 multivendor Bluetooth profile. By streaming, stereo-audio signals are wirelessly transferred between the playing device (source) and the receiving device. To be able to operate the source by remote control, the player needs to 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. Switch the speaker on by pressing the button (6) for approx. 3 seconds. The indicator light (7) flashes slowly. The system is now in "Automatic Connection" mode. To connect a new playback unit to the speaker, wait a few seconds. The indicator light (7) will start to flash rapidly after a short time. The device is now set to the pairing mode.
3. Choose the Bluetooth menu in your player and register the device in your player. For this, refer to the operation manual of your player. The device "BSS 4826" will show in your player as a selection.
4. Now enter the password "0000" in your player, depending on the device manufacturers, model, and software version.

After successful registration, the control light (7) will be lit.

NOTE:

Depending on the device manufacturer, you may need to perform the registration (PAIRING) again to connect the devices. - If you have problems pairing a playback device, deactivate the WiFi and mobile data functions on your playback device. - Bluetooth compatibility cannot be guaranteed for devices (e.g., mobile phones) released in the future. - To ensure an optimal connection, make sure the battery of your player is fully charged. - Some mobile phone brands have an energy-saving mode. Deactivate the energy-saving mode, as it can otherwise cause problems during data transfer via Bluetooth. To transfer audio data, Bluetooth must remain activated on your player. Refer to the operation manual of your player. - If a mobile phone on which you are playing music receives a call, the music will be interrupted. Press button (6) to accept the call. The sound is played through the speakers. Speak into the microphone on the device or transfer the conversation to your mobile phone. To do this, follow the instructions on the mobile phone's display.
