WI-FI SETUP WITH THE AEROSPHÉRE NETWORK SETUP WEBPAGE

Follow the detailed description in the "Feature Guide" on aerosphere.genevalab.com

VII FIRST STEPS WITH THE AEROSPHÈRE BASE

Once completed: you know how to use FM, DAB+ and the Audio CD with the remote control and the AeroSphere app. There is no additional setup needed because the AeroSphere Base will find all AeroSphere speakers automatically.

HOW TO CONTROL THE AEROSPHÈRE BASE

You can control the AeroSphere Base with the AeroSphere app and a remote control of the AeroSphere speaker. The Base has no remote control sensor so you need to point the remote control at an AeroSphere speaker.

How do I find the AeroSphere speakers and Base with the App?

Start the AeroSphere app. The AeroSphere app finds all available AeroSphere speakers and Base automatically.

How to download the AeroSphere app

iPhone version: search for "AeroSphere" in the App Store

The Geneva AeroSphere app works with iPhone and iPod Touch.

Android version: search for "AeroSphere" in the Google Play store.

BEYOND THE BASICS

How many AeroSphere speakers can I connect to the AeroSphere Base?

Up to four AeroSphere speakers.

Why is there a delay when changing the AeroSphere sources (from/to FM, DAB, CD)?

The audio is streamed over the Wi-Fi network and then the audio is buffered for a few seconds on the speakers. The reason for audio buffering is to be less sensitive to Wi-Fi network traffic and to minimize audio interruptions.

Why is there a delay when I change stations in DAB or when I change tracks on a CD?

See above. After pressing a CD or DAB command on the remote control or app (change stations, change tracks), the station or tracks are changed immediately on the AeroSphere Base, but the audio buffering on the AeroSphere speakers adds a delay.

There are audio interruptions when I listen to FM radio

The wireless network bandwidth is not only limited, but also shared with Bluetooth, other devices on the same Wi-Fi network and Wi-Fi networks close by. See section "How to make sure you get the best audio streaming quality in your Wi-Fi network" for ways to minimize audio interruptions.

Can I turn the AeroSphere Base on and off from the AeroSphere App?

Using DAB for the first time ( "Scan" function )

Initially the AeroSphere Base has no DAB+ stations stored. Using the "Scan" function, the radio will find the available stations in your region. After a "Scan", the stations are automatically stored. The "Scan" function is also needed after moving the AeroSphere Base to a new location with different radio stations or when you move the AeroSphere Base to a room with a different radio reception.

1. Tap the "Scan" menu item on DAB screen in the AeroSphere app.
2. Once all available stations have been found, the list is refreshed.

What is DAB?

DAB/DAB+ (sometimes also called digital radio) is only available in certain countries (UK, Germany, Switzerland, Norway, Hong Kong, and more).

VIII TROUBLESHOOTING AND FAQ

See also areosphere.genevalab.com

GENERAL

Why are there two (NE) buttons on the remote control?

The upper LINE refers to the LINE-IN analog audio input on the back of an AeroSphere speaker.

The lower (next to CD) selects the analog audio input on the back of the AeroSphere Base. Audio from this input is streamed to all connected AeroSphere speakers.

How do I change the battery in the remote control?

1. Locate the small hole on the black side facing the user.
2. Gently push the included pin into this hole and push in. Alternatively you can use a safety pin.
3. Push the pin gently to the left side.
4. The battery compartment will slide out. Replace the battery (3V lithium cell, 3V CR2032). Verify that the battery is inserted with the right polarity (+ side is facing down).

How do I change the bass and treble?

Use the music note icon in the AeroSphere app.

Power consumption in standby

AeroSphere Large: 0.47 Watt ( Powering off: use the button on remote control or the power button on the back of the speaker )

AeroSphere Small: 0.3 Watt (Powering off: use the button on remote control or the power button on the back of the speaker)

AeroSphere Base: 0.3 Watt (Powering off: slide power switch to "OFF" position)

Why is the AeroSphere Small or AeroSphere Large turning itself off?

The AeroSphere speaker will automatically turn itself off after 15 minutes if there is no active audio input. This is an Energy saving functionality, required by law in many countries.

WI-FI SETUP

How to reset to factory default settings

AeroSphere speakers: Hold the power button on the back of the speakers for 10 seconds, until the display starts blinking red. Then remove your finger from the button.

AeroSphere Base: Hold the Wi-Fi button for a few seconds while turning the power switch from OFF to ON position.

What happens when I do reset to factory defaults?

1. The Wi-Fi network settings are reset.
2. The Wi-Fi setup method WAC is started ( AeroSphere speakers only).

Are WAC and "Network setup webpage" methods active at the same time?

Yes, both methods are available at the same time. If you have an iOS device with iOS 7 or higher, you are not able to select the temporary Wi-Fi network from the Wi-Fi menu in the iOS preferences. With an iOS device with iOS 6 or lower, you will not see the WAC method in the Wi-Fi setup menu.

BLUETOOTH

I cannot connect to the AeroSphere speaker.

1. Select Bluetooth with the remote control - the display must be blue (constant or flashing).
2. If the display is NOT flashing, another device has already been connected. This device must first be turned off - only one device can be connected at the same time.
3. Reset Bluetooth with the instructions below.

How to reset Bluetooth

Up to eight paired Bluetooth devices can be stored. To clear the memory, perform the following steps:

1. Turn on the AeroSphere speaker and select with the remote control.
2. Within 5 seconds of entering Bluetooth mode, hold down the button on the remote control for at least 5 seconds.
3. Pair your mobile phone again.

During pairing, my smartphone requests a PIN—what is the PIN? If the phone asks for a PIN, enter "0000" (four zeros).

AIRPLAY

I don't see the AeroSphere speaker show up in the AirPlay icon of iTunes

The AirPlay icon in iTunes or iPhone only shows if an AirPlay speaker has been discovered in your Wi-Fi network. Make sure the AeroSphere speaker is successfully connected to your home network. The display must be constant green.

How do multiple AirPlay speakers in the same network behave together?

iTunes can play to more than one AirPlay speaker at the same time. The music will always be synchronized.
