devices

Bluetooth

 devices need to be initially paired first before 

they can exchange data. Once paired, it is not necessary 
to pair them again unless:

 

pairing is made with more than 99 devices.
Pairing can only be made one device at a time. This 
unit can be paired to a maximum of 99 devices. If sub-
sequent device is paired, the oldest device paired, will 
be deleted and replaced with the new one.

 

pairing information is deleted while repairing, etc.

Indicators:

Bluetooth

 source devices

Press the ON/STANDBY button to turn the power on.

Press the 

BLUETOOTH

  /

 button on the main unit 

or  on the remote control to select 

Bluetooth

 function. 

(Pairing indicator blinks.)

Perform pairing procedure on the source device to 
detect this unit. “GX-BT9 SHARP” will appear in the 
detected devices list (if available) in the source de-
vice. (Refer the source device operating manual for 
details).

Notes:

 

Place the devices to be paired within 3 feet (1 me-
ter) of each other when pairing.

 

Some source devices are unable to display lists of 
detected devices. To pair this unit with the source 
device, refer to the source device operating manual 
for details.

Select “GX-BT9 SHARP” from the source list. If Pass-
code* is required, enter “0000”.
* Passcode may be called PIN Code, Passkey, PIN 
number or Password.

Pairing indicator (blue) will stop blinking once the unit 
is successfully paired with the source device. (Pairing 
information is now memorized in the unit.)
Some audio source devices may connect with the unit 
automatically after pairing is completed, otherwise 
follow the instructions in the source device operating 
manual to start connection.

Press 

BLUETOOTH

  /

 button on remote control or 

source device to start 

Bluetooth 

streaming playback.

Notes:

 

If a device such as microwave oven, wireless LAN card, 

Bluetooth

 device or any other device that uses the same 2.4 

GHz frequency near the system some sound interruption 

may be heard.

 

The transmission distance of the wireless signal between the 

device and the main unit is about 32 feet (10 m), but may 

vary depending on your operating environment. If a steel 

concrete or metallic wall is between the device and the main 

unit, the system may not operate at all, because the wireless 

signal cannot penetrate metal. 

 

If this unit or the source device is turned off before 

Bluetooth

 

connection is completed, pairing will not be completed and 

the pairing information will not be memorized. Repeat step 1 

onward to start pairing again.

 

To pair with other devices, repeat steps 1 - 4 for each de-

vice. This unit can be paired to a maximum of 99 devices. If 

subsequent device is paired, the oldest device paired, will be 

deleted and replaced with the new one.

 

Once a device is ousted or deleted from the pairing list, the 

pairing information for the device is also deleted. To listen to 

the sound from the device again, it needs to be re-paired. 

Perform steps 1 - 4 to pair the device again.

 

GX-BT9 supports 

Bluetooth

 profile AVRCP 1.4. If your de-

vice supports the same profile (refer to device manufactur-

er’s specification), GX-BT9 is able to control the volume of 

the device.

Note:

Some music applications do not support this feature, hence 

there will be no volume synchronisation between your de-

vice and the unit even if your 

Bluetooth

 device supports 

such profile.
