Listening to Bluetooth music
Blutooth
You need to pair your Bluetooth device with your radio before you can auto-link to play/ stream
Bluetooth music through your DDR-36. Paring creates a `bond' so two devices can recognize
each other.
Pairing your Bluetooth device for the rst time
1. Press the Mode button until the Bluetooth mode is selected. The Bluetooth icon on the panel
will ash.
2. Activate Bluetooth on your device according to the device's user manual to link to your DDR-36.
3. Once connected, the Bluetooth icon will remain illuminated. You can now play the music in your
Bluetooth-enabled device via DDR-36.
4. Make sure to turn down the volume from your Bluetooth device.
Note:
1) If there are 2 Bluetooth devices searching for DDR-36, it will show its availability on both devices.
However, if one device links with the DDR-36 rst, then the other Bluetooth device won't nd
the DDR-36 on its list.
2) If your Bluetooth-enabled device is temporarily disconnected to your DDR-36. As long as the
disconnection last within 1 minutes, your device can re-connect with your radio again
automatically. If the disconnection last more than 1 minutes, then you need to manually
reconnect your device again to the radio. Be aware that during the period of disconnection, no
other Bluetooth device can pair or link with your radio.
21
3) If ‘DDR-36’ shows in your Bluetooth device list but your device cannot connect with it, please
delete the DDR-36 item from your list and pair the device with DDR-36 again following the
steps described previously.
4) The effective operation range between the system and the paired device is approximately 10
meters (30 feet).
5) Any obstacle between the system and the device can reduce the operational range.
6) Different playback functions are available in Bluetooth mode(i.e. Play/ Pause/ next track/previous
track/ fast-forward/ rewind). However, Bluetooth-enabled devices vary in how they respond to
the playback dependent upon the model.
Pair with your Bluetooth device before
If your Bluetooth device already paired with DDR-36 previously, the unit will memorize your
Bluetooth device, but it does not support the automatic reconnection, reconnect with this product
following the steps below.
DDR-36 can memorize up to 8 sets of Bluetooth device, when the memory exceed this amount,
the earliest paired device will be over written.
1. Press and release the Pair button to enter the Bluetooth device memory. Then rotate the Tuning
control to nd the desired memorized Bluetooth device and press the Select button to connect
to the required Bluetooth device.
GB
2. Alternatively, repeatedly press and release the Pair button to have access to the stored Bluetooth
device and press the Select button to connect to the required Bluetooth device.
22
Disconnecting your Bluetooth device
Press the Mode button to select any bands other than Bluetooth band or press and hold the Pair
button to disconnect the link.
If you disconnect the Bluetooth device when you are in Bluetooth mode, the LED light for
Bluetooth icon will then start to ash indicating deactivation of Bluetooth.
