Once connected in Streaming mode, the
smartphone is considered to be a media
source.
Connecting Apple® players
Connect the Apple® player to the USB socket
using a suitable cable (not supplied).
Play starts automatically.
Control is via the audio system.
The classifications available are those of the portable device connected (artists/
albums/genres/playlists/audio books/
podcasts). It is also possible to use a
classification structured in the form of a
library.
The default classification used is by artist. To
modify the classification used, return to the
first level of the menu then select the desired
classification (playlists for example) and
confirm to go down through the menu to the
desired track.
The version of software in the audio system may
not be compatible with the generation of the
Apple
® player.
Information and advice
The system supports USB mass storage
devices, BlackBerry® devices or Apple® players
via the USB ports. The adapter cable is not
supplied.
Devices are managed using the audio system
controls.
Other devices, not recognised on connection,
must be connected via Bluetooth streaming, if
compatible.
To protect the system, do not use a USB hub.
The audio system will only play audio files with
".wav", ".wma", ".aac", ".ogg" and ".mp3" file
extensions, at bit rates between 32 Kbps and
320 Kbps.
It also supports VBR (Variable Bit Rate) mode.
No other file types (".mp4", etc.) can be read.
All ".wma" files must be standard WMA 9 files.
The supported sampling rates are 11, 22, 44 and
48 KHz.
To avoid reading and display problems, we
recommend choosing file names less than 20
characters long that do not contain any special
characters (e.g. “ ? .
; ù).
Use only USB memory sticks in FAT32 format
(File Allocation Table).
We recommend using the original USB
cable for the portable device.
Telephone
Pairing a Bluetooth®
telephone
The services available depend on the
network, the SIM card and the
compatibility of the Bluetooth devices used.
Consult the telephone user guide and the
service provider to check which services are
available.
The Bluetooth function must be activated and
the telephone configured as "Visible to all” (in the
telephone settings).
To complete the pairing, whichever procedure is
used (from the telephone or from the system),
ensure that the code is the same in the system
and in the telephone.
If the pairing procedure fails, we
recommend deactivating and then
reactivating the Bluetooth function on the
telephone.

of detected devices.
In the system, accept the connection request
from the telephone.
