5 English       INTRODUCTIONThank you for purchasing the Parrot SOUND SYSTEM sound system.The Parrot SOUND SYSTEM is a wireless sound system based on the Bluetooth technology.Plug in the speakers and use your Bluetooth-compatible mobile phone, smartphone, PDA, computer, or MP3 player to stream your MP3 tracks to the speakers. Your device acts as the transmitter and the speakers act as the receiver. Transmitting music in this way is known as streaming.       Parrot SOUND SYSTEM • The Parrot SOUND SYSTEM also features a line-in socket that can be used for any music stored on an MP3 player, CD player, and so on. In this case, an audio lead is required to connect the device to either of the two speakers (supplied). • Go to www.parrot.biz/www.parrotsound.com and select Support to find the list of Bluetooth devices with streaming capability.Parrot  SOUND SYSTEM

Select «Parrot SOUND SYSTEM». You are prompted to enter a PIN code: Enter «0000» on your source device.• The Parrot SOUND SYSTEM is ready to receive music.• Subsequent connections will be established from your device, without any need to re-enter the PIN code.• Note: holding down the        for three seconds restores the factory settings. Playing music• Press «Play» on your source device and the music will automatically be sent by Bluetooth to the speakers. • Play, forward/rewind, stop and pause can be controlled via the source device.• The volume can be adjusted on the speakers using the buttons.• To mute the speakers (i.e. turn the sound off), hold down        for two seconds. To cancel the mute, press          or • Only one source device can be connected at any one time to stream music to the speakers.• Note: some source devices may disconnect from the system if they are not used for a certain amount of time or if they are moved away. To use the Parrot SOUND SYSTEM again, you might need to re-establish the connection from the source device. No action needs to be performed on the Parrot SOUND SYSTEM system. Refer to the user guide for your source device or check out our website at www.parrot.biz/www.parrotsound.com for further details on the appropriate procedure.CONFIGLEDVolume + ; Volume -LED         KIT CONTENTS    The kit includes:   • Two Parrot SOUND SYSTEM speakers   • The RCA audio lead   • Two mains leads   • Four adhesive pads.   • Two brackets.   • Four screws for fixing the wall brackets to the speakers   • Two adhesive pads to be fixed to the rear of each speaker if wall-mounting.   • Two removable black magnetic speaker covers   • The user guide.   • The quickstart guide.   • The Parrot product guide     USING FOR THE FIRST TIMEConnecting your source device    • Switch the speakers on.

7 EnglishParrot  SOUND SYSTEM               PLACING THE SPEAKERS Wall-mounted: • Use the bracket and the two screws supplied. Do not forget to stick the adhesive pads to each speaker.  Placing on the floor  • Stick the four adhesive pads beneath each speaker. Adhesive padsAdhesive pads          USE WITH THE RCA SOCKET • Use the RCA socket to connect a device (Discman, MP3 player, hi-fi…) • Connect the RCA cable to one of the speakers - the music will be sent by Bluetooth to the other speaker.  • The RCA socket is active when no Bluetooth device is connected.   • Note: if you are using the Bluetooth feature and RCA socket at the same time: the first device to be  connected  and  active  (i.e. playing the music) will take priority.  For example, while you are listening to music by Bluetooth, you will not be able to use the device on the RCA socket. You must first stop streaming from the Bluetooth device to free up the speakers and you can then use the device connected to the RCA socket. If you are using the RCA socket, you must stop using the device before you can start streaming by Bluetooth.
8  Parrot  SOUND SYSTEM   Red - flashing slowly    Streaming in progress and the speaker has been         muted (no sound). Press          or       to return         to active mode.           REMOTE CONTROL OF THE SPEAKERS  •  The  AVRCP  Bluetooth  profile  (Audio  Video  Remote  Control  Profile)  built into  the  speakers  allows  the  volume  to  be  controlled.  You  can  therefore  ad-just  the  volume  using  devices  supporting  this  profile.  To  set  it  up,  briefly  press the  button        to  enable  the  speakers  to  be  detected  by  a  Bluetooth  device. Search  for  peripherals  on  the  device  and  connect  it  using  PIN  code  «0000».       MODE DEGRADE               DEGRADED MODE • When the speakers are in degraded mode, it means that the auto-setup phase did not finish correctly. Both speakers therefore work as two independent speakers. Just one speaker is active and streams the signal in mono (the LEDs are red). • To return to normal mode, bring the speakers close together (less than 10m) and they should  automatically switch back  to normal mode  by restarting the auto-setup phase. • Note: the auto-setup phase can also be started by holding down the button          for two seconds.      MEANING OF THE LEDs               COLOUR                    MEANING  Alternating blue/red    The two speakers are in the auto-setup phase.  Dim blue     The speakers will be undetectable for any         Bluetooth device that has not already been        paired. This prevents an unauthorised device         from connecting and streaming music.  Bright blue     One or more sources are connected to the         speakers. Waiting for music.  Blue - flashing quickly  The speakers are detectable and are ready to be        detected by the source.  Blue - flashing slowly   Streaming in progress and the speakers have        been muted (no sound).           Press        or        to return to active mode.           Alternating blue/red    The two speakers are in the auto-setup phase.   Dim red      The speaker will be undetectable for any         Bluetooth device.           Bright red    One or more sources are connected to the         speaker. Waiting for music.  Red - flashing quickly   The speaker is detectable and ready to be         detected.  • The red LED means that the system is being used in mono.  • The blue LED means that the system is being used in stereo
