PROTECT YOUR FURNITURE!!
This system is equipped with non-skid rubber ‘feet’ to prevent the product from moving when you operate
the controls. These ‘feet’ are made from non-migrating rubber material specially formulated to avoid
leaving any marks or stains on your furniture. However certain types of oil based furniture polishes, wood
preservatives, or cleaning sprays may cause the rubber ‘feet’ to soften, and leave marks or a rubber
residue on the furniture. To prevent any damage to your furniture we strongly recommend that you
purchase small self-adhesive felt pads, available at hardware stores and home improvement centers
everywhere, and apply these pads to the bottom of the rubber ‘feet’ before you place the product on fine
wooden furniture.

Note: The micro USB CHARGING JACK located on this unit is only designed for
charging the built-in Li-ion battery.
CHARGING THE BATTERY FOR FIRST TIME
1.) Charge the built-in Li-ion battery a minimum of 2 hours prior to first use.
Plug the unit into the USB port on your computer or into a USB power adaptor
(not included) using the included USB cable.
2.) The BATTERY INDICATOR (Red) (#1) will turn “ON” while charging and turn
“OFF” when the unit is fully charged. Unplug the USB cable from the power source
once the battery is fully charged.
RECHARGING THE INTERNAL BATTERY
After prolonged use, the internal battery will become weak and the operation may
become intermittent. When the internal battery charge is low, the

NFC (Near Field Communication) is a technology enabling short-range wireless
communication between various devices, such as mobile phones and IC tags. Thanks
to the NFC function, data communication can be achieved easily just by touching the
relevant symbol or designated location on NFC compatible devices.
1. Make sure your Smartphone and the NFC function is turned on.
2. Hold the back of your smartphone against the “JENSEN” logo on the SMPS-621
until hear a confirmation tone is heard to confirm the pairing is completed.
3. Some smartphones may ask you to confirm the pairing if they were not paired
before.
NOTE: If you have multiple NFC compatible devices, just touch the smartphone to a
different device to switch the connection to that device. For example, when your
smartphone is connected with NFC compatible headphones, just touch the
smartphone to the system to change the Bluetooth connection to the system (one
touch connection switching).
LINE IN OPERATION
You can play other music sources (iPod, MP3 or other digital audio players) through
the speakers of this unit by connecting the LINE IN JACK (#8) to your external player’s
audio out jack or headphone jack.
1. Plug one end of an audio cable (not included) into the LINE IN JACK (#8) and the
other end of the cable to the headphone jack of your digital audio player.
2. Set the
POWER ON/OFF SWITCH (#9) to t
urn on the unit. The BLUETOOTH
STATUS INDICATOR (#6) will light Green steadily.
3. Start playing the device you plugged into the LINE IN JACK (#8).

6.
Set the POWER ON/OFF SWITCH (#9) to the “OFF” position to turn SMPS-621
off and unplug the AUX IN Jack.
NOTE:
Play/Pause control only works in Bluetooth mode and not in Line In mode.
If you are connected to the Line Out Jack of your external device then you only
need to adjust the volume control on the SMPS-621. If you’re connected to the
Headphone Jack of your external device, then you may need to adjust both the
volume control of your external device and the SMPS-621 to obtain the most
desirable volume setting.
If you use Line In function when playing Bluetooth audio, Bluetooth audio will be
temporarily disconnected when the audio cable is plugged in. Unplugging the
audio cable will resume Bluetooth audio. We suggest you turn off the Bluetooth
function of your Smartphone to save battery power when playing music via Line In
mode.
