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 centres everywhere, and apply these pads to the bottom of the rubber ‘feet’ before you place the product on fine wooden furniture.

BT OPERATION

Bluetooth wireless technology is a short-range radio technology that enables wireless communication between various types of digital devices, such as mobile phone or computer. It operates within a range of about 10meters (30 feet) without the hassle of having to use cables to connect these devices. Since the Bluetooth technology does not require line of sight between the communicating devices, it is not necessary to line up the transmitting device and the receiver, as in the case of infrared technology.

Communication System and Bluetooth Profile of this unit
There are many available Bluetooth Profiles describing the basic communication methods, specific functions and uses, to enable communication between devices.

This unit supports the following:
Communication System: Bluetooth Specification version 5 Bluetooth
+Enhanced Data Rate (EDR) Profile : A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile) A2DP enables audio streaming from an A2DP equipped Bluetooth stereo audio source device (eg mobile phone) to this unit. By converting wireless stereo audio signal to analogue audio signal, you can enjoy listening to the sound through this speaker system. AVRCP (Audio/Video Remote Control Profile) is a technology that allows a single remote control to control all Bluetooth enabled Audio Video equipment to which a user has access.
