Using Bluetooth You can use a Bluetooth device to enjoy music with high quality stereo sound, all without wires!
What is Bluetooth?
Bluetooth technology lets Bluetooth-compliant devices interconnect easily with each other using a short, wireless connection. A Bluetooth device may cause noise or malfunction, depending on usage, when:
- A part of your body comes into contact with the receiving/transmitting system of the Bluetooth device or the product.
- It is subject to electrical variation from obstructions caused by a wall, corner, or by office partitioning.
- It is exposed to electrical interference from same frequency-band devices including medical equipment, microwave ovens, and wireless LANs. Keep the MiNi Hi-Fi Component Audio system and the Bluetooth device close together when pairing. The greater the distance between the system and Bluetooth device, the worse the quality. If the distance exceeds the Bluetooth operational range, the connection is lost. In poor reception-sensitivity areas, the Bluetooth connection may not work properly. The MiNi Hi-Fi Component Audio system has an effective reception range of up to 16.25 feet (5 meters) in all directions if there are no obstacles. The connection will be automatically cut off if the Bluetooth device moves out of this range. Even within range, the sound quality may be degraded by obstacles such as walls or doors. This wireless device may cause electric interference during its operation. To connect the MiNi Hi-Fi Component to a Bluetooth device Before you begin, confirm that your Bluetooth device supports the Bluetooth-compliant stereo headset function. 1. Press the CD/Bluetooth button on the main unit or the Bluetooth button on the remote control to display the "BT" message.
You will see WAIT for a short period of time and then BT READY on the front display of the MiNi Hi-Fi Component. 2. Select the Bluetooth menu on the Bluetooth device you want to connect. (Refer to the Bluetooth device's user's manual.) 3. Select the Stereo headset menu on the Bluetooth device. You will see a list of scanned devices. 4. Select "[Samsung] MINI xxxxxx J-Series " from the searched list.
When the product is connected to the Bluetooth device, it will display Device name
BT on the front display.
If the Bluetooth device has failed to pair with the product or "UNPAIRED" appears on the display, please delete the previous
"[Samsung] MINI XXXXXX J-Series" found by the Bluetooth device and have it search for the MINI again. 5. You can listen to the music playing on the connected Bluetooth device over the MiNi Hi-
Fi Component system.
In Bluetooth mode, some model's Play/Stop/
Next/Back functions are not available.
The product only supports Middle Quality SBC data (up to 237kbps@48kHz), and does not support High Quality SBC data
(328kbps@44.1kHz).
Only one Bluetooth device can be paired at a time.
The AVRCP feature is not supported.
Connect only to a Bluetooth device that supports the A2DP (AV) function.
You cannot connect to a Bluetooth device that supports only the HF (Hands Free) function.
You may be required to enter a PIN code
(password) when connecting the Bluetooth device to the MiNi Hi-Fi Component. If the PIN code input window appears, enter <0000>.
Once you have turned off the MiNi Hi-Fi Component and pairing is terminated, pairing will not be restored automatically. To reconnect, you must pair the device again.
The MiNi Hi-Fi Component audio system may not search or connect properly in the following cases:
-
If there is a strong electrical field around the MiNi Hi-Fi Component. If the Bluetooth device is turned off, not in place, or malfunctions.
Note that such devices as microwave ovens, wireless LAN adaptors, fluorescent lights, and gas stoves use the same frequency range as the Bluetooth device, which can cause electric interference.
