Beo5

Guide

Your personal remote control

The Beo5 remote control is customised to give

easy access to the Bang & Olufsen products in
your home.

When you purchase a Beo5, your Bang & Olufsen
retailer programs it to match your individual
product setup.

This allows for a personal design for each user

and ensures that all buttons in your Beo5 are
relevant to your specific setup.

About this guide …

All the buttons in your customised
Beo5 are explained in the personal
Beo5 glossary.

This Guide describes the basic
principles of how to use your
Beo5 remote control.

As an additional help to the
Guide, a personal Beo5 button
overview and a matching
glossary are created for you every
time your Bang & Olufsen
retailer customises your Beo5
for you in the store.

The but ton over view provides
you with a ‘road map’ to your
Beo5 and allows you to quickly
find the button or function you
need.

In the personal Beo5 glossary,
you can find explanations to all
the buttons available in your
specific setup.

If you change your product setup,
for example if you purchase a
new product, always have your
Bang & Olufsen retailer program
your Beo5 remote control again.

You then receive a new Beo5

button overview and glossary

that matches your new setup.

NOTE! For information about how
to operate other Bang & Olufsen
products, refer to the Guides
enclosed with the products.

Before you start using your
Beo5 remote control for the
very first time, it must be
charged. Refer to page 14 for
information about how to
charge your Beo5.

Start using your Beo5 …

When fully charged, your remote
control is ready for use.

To activate the Beo5 display, just

pick up your Beo5 or touch the
screen lightly, and the display lights
up. Then select a button by a press
on the screen.

Before you start

When you pick up the remote
control or touch the screen, the
display lights up.

Useful hints …

Once a source is selected, most
operation is carried out via the
Beo5 ball – for example to adjust
volume, step through tracks or
channels and pause playback.

Once the display is active, the

buttons appear on the screen. Press
a button to activate a source or

function.

NOTE! We recommend that Beo5
is always in standby mode – not
switched off. However, if you wish
to switch your Beo5 on/ off, press
and hold the centre button.

If you use your left hand to operate
the remote control, it is possible to
change the placement of the
buttons. Refer to page 16 for
further information or contact your
Bang & Olufsen retailer.
