MP3 player basic functionality:
- The MP3 player supports both SD cards and USB sticks of up to 32 GB (memory storage unit with higher
capacity may also be supported but this is not guaranteed). WAV and MP3 files are supported. Other file
types may be supported, but this is not guaranteed.
- The MP3 player normally starts automatically when the speaker is turned on. Press and hold the mode
button for 2 seconds to switch the MP3 player off or back on.
- Use the Mode button to switch between the various audio sources.
- Select Bluetooth mode to playback via Bluetooth. Pair the speaker by activating Bluetooth on your audio
device and selecting it from the list of Bluetooth devices nearby. Once the two are successfully paired and
the volume is turned up, you will hear a tone that indicates that the speaker is connected to your device.
- If the Bluetooth mode displays 'Disconnected', then a connection with the Bluetooth device was
unsuccessful. (12A/15A model only)
- If the Bluetooth mode displays 'Connected!', then the connection with the Bluetooth device was successful.
(12A/15A model only)
- It is not possible to pair a Bluetooth device unless Bluetooth mode is activated. It is not possible to make a
Bluetooth connection if the MP3 player is turned off or in FM mode, for instance.
- It is not possible to pair multiple Bluetooth devices with the speaker at the same time. In order to pair
another device, the current device needs to be disconnected.
- In FM radio mode, it is necessary to scan the FM range by holding down the Play/Pause button or holding it
down shortly. The radio will automatically scan for registered radio frequencies. You can interrupt this
process by pressing the Play/Pause button again, and then use the << and >> buttons to go to the following
or previous radio station. The MP3-player stores all scanned presets. If you use the speaker in another
location, it's recommended to carry out a new scan.
- The FM receiver on the MP3 player and the infrared transmitter are incorporated out of sight into the front
of the speaker. For optimal results, do not place anything in front of the speaker.
- For optimal results, it is recommended to carry out a full FM scan so you know which radio stations there
are to choose from. Once the player has completed a scan of all the available frequencies, it will
automatically switch back to the first preset.
- If you have a Bluetooth device, SD card or USB stick as your audio source, use the indicator controls on
the speaker. Play or pause a track with the >|| button, skip or go to previous tracks with the |<< or >>|
buttons.
- The MP3 player also features a main volume control. Use the V- or V+ buttons on the panel (hold the button
down until the desired volume level is reached) or use the remote control.
- The MP3 player in the Artis 8A and 10A has a mini USB plug for special types of storage media, including
certain Android devices. Compatibility with your specific device however can not be guaranteed.
