However, it is normal if the PAL BT plays straight out of the box. With the unit off, connect the power supply to the PAL BT and plug it into a wall outlet to charge the batteries. Like many rechargeable devices, there may be a delay before the LED starts to blink when the PAL BT is brand new and first plugged in, or when left unused for several weeks. This is a feature of the Power Management System designed to protect the batteries from damage. Bear in mind it may take up to 4 charge/discharge cycles before the batteries are operating at full capacity when the PAL BT is new or has been unused for several weeks. Leaving the PAL BT plugged in even when not in use ensures the batteries will be charged when you need it. If the PAL BT is not plugged in, the batteries will gradually self-discharge as a safety measure. There is also no harm in playing the PAL BT continuously while plugged in. 7 – ENGLISH Guide to Features (Front) 1. 2. 3. 4. 1.

Devices may pair differently. Below is a general guide. 1. Turn the PAL BT to the “BT” position, then press the Pairing button. Turn the volume up about ¼ to start. Also turn up the volume on the source device (the device you are streaming from). 2. Turn on the Bluetooth wireless technology on your enabled device. 3. Select “Tivoli Bluetooth (Not Paired)” when it appears on your device’s screen to initiate searching. Some devices may prompt you for a PIN. If so, enter “0000”. “Tivoli Bluetooth” will change from “Not Paired” to “Connected”. 4. When your device confirms pairing, you can begin playing your music files wirelessly. Adjust the volume level on your device. You should not have to pair your device again. Depending on your device, you may need to make multiple attempts at Pairing and/ or Connecting to the PAL BT, but please give your device adequate time to Pair or Connect before repeating the process. Pairing a Bluetooth Wireless Technology Enabled iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad 1. Turn the PAL BT to the “BT” position, then press the Pairing button . Turn the volume up about ¼ to start. Also turn up the volume on the source device (the device you are streaming from). 2. Select “Settings”. 3. Select “General”. 4. Select “Bluetooth”. 5. Select “Tivoli Bluetooth (Not Paired)” when it appears on the display. If you are prompted to enter a PIN, enter “0000”. “Tivoli Bluetooth” will change from “Not Paired” to “Connected”. 6. When your iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad confirms pairing, you can begin playing your music files wirelessly. Adjust the volume level on your device. You should not have to pair your iPhone/iPod/iPad again. The volume output level of music files varies. If you prefer an even higher output level, check the settings in your iPhone/iPod touch/iPad: Set the EQ Off, the SoundCheck Off, and the Volume limit Off. If you encounter a problem Pairing, press the small arrow to the right of “Tivoli Bluetooth” on your iPhone/iPod touch/iPad display and select “Forget this Device”, then repeat the Pairing process. Depending on your device, you may need to make multiple attempts at Pairing and/or Connecting to the PAL BT, but please give your device adequate time to Pair or Connect before repeating the process. 10 – ENGLISH When streaming music, you can press the blue arrow to the right of the next track button >>/ on the iPhone/iPod touch/iPad display to alternate between the iPhone/iPod/iPad and Bluetooth. • • If the audio drops out or stops during playback, move your device closer to the PAL BT, or check to be sure another wireless device is not interfering with the signal. When switching from Bluetooth to AM or FM, you may need to re-adjust the PAL BT’s volume level. About The Battery Pack The PAL BT uses a sealed pack of Lithium Ion cells. The front panel green LED serves both as a power indicator and battery power and charge status indicator. Use only an authorized Tivoli Audio PAL Series Lithium-Ion battery. The estimated battery life on a full charge is 12 hours. Low Battery With the PAL BT turned On but not plugged in, as the batteries become discharged, the green power indicator LED to blink with a short off/long on cycle, indicating the batteries are in need of being recharged. The remaining playback time from the moment the blinking begins until the PAL BT shuts off is estimated between 20 minutes and several hours. It is difficult to be more precise due to many factors including how long and how loud the radio is played, and the remaining charge left in the batteries. For instance, the PAL BT will likely play longer off of the batteries at a low volume than at higher volume levels. As you use your PAL BT, you will develop a better idea of how much playback time you have before recharging is necessary. You may also notice reduced battery playback time with PAL BT when using Bluetooth Wire¬less Technology. Using the Bluetooth wireless technology when on battery-only power will reduce the average playback time experienced with just radio listening. If the PAL BT is turned on to FM or AM and the power indicator is off, then the batteries require recharging. However, it is normal for the radio to play for a brief period if turned on after the LED has gone out. If the PAL BT is to be used away from an AC or other power source for an extended period of time, it is wise to “top-off” the charge before use, especially if the LED is blinking. Leaving the PAL BT plugged in, even when not in use, ensures the batteries will be charged when you need them. If the PAL BT is not plugged in, the batteries will self-discharge as a safety measure. There is no harm in continuously operating the PAL BT with the power supply. Note: It may take up to 4 charge/discharge cycles before the batteries are operating at full capacity when new or left unused for several weeks. 11 – ENGLISH Replacing the Battery Pack When it comes time to replace the battery pack, lift the FM antenna up, remove the two screws that hold the battery cover in place with a small Philips-head screwdriver. Lift the battery cover off, disconnect the lead from the battery pack and replace the batteries, making sure to correctly connect the leads. Replace the battery cover by inserting the bottom lip first, then screwing the cover back on. Replacement battery packs may be purchased from your authorized dealer/distributor or Tivoli Audio. CAUTION: To reduce the risk of fire or personal injury, use an exact replacement battery pack, available through Tivoli Audio or its authorized dealers, and dispose of the spent battery pack according to your state/country’s regulations. Handling the PAL BT • The PAL BT is weather resistant, but it is not weather proof. It should not be immersed in water or held under running water. It also should not be exposed to extreme temperatures. • The PAL BT is designed to be portable, but it is not indestructible. Do not drop it or subject it to strong impacts. • Always grip the PAL BT using the side indentations. • The PAL BT’s non-slip, weather resistant paint is durable, but it is not impervious to scratches. • The PAL BT’s speaker is magnetically shielded, permitting use near a computer monitor or a television set. • It is normal for the power supply to become warm during use. Cleaning To clean the PAL BT, use only a soft cloth and do not rub hard. Use a very mild cleaner only when necessary. If something is spilled on the cabinet, wash it off as soon as possible to prevent possible damage. Normal every day wear and tear, or damage resulting from cleaning or chemicals, is not covered under the factory warranty. Headphones Avoid using headphones (not included) at high volume levels to prevent possible hearing damage. Do not wear headphones while operating a motor vehicle. 12 – ENGLISH Limited Warranty Outside North America Tivoli Audio manufactures its products to very high standards and we are confident our products will perform well.
