  • Press the Power Button on the front panel to turn the Music System+ on.
  • Fully extend the rear telescoping antenna and be sure the rear antenna switch is in “External” position.
  • When powered on for the first time in DAB mode, the MSY+ will initiate an auto scan. When complete, the display will indicate how many stations were received. Be sure the rear antenna is fully extended during the auto scan and the antenna switch is in the “External” position.
  • Adjust the volume to the desired level using the front rotary knob.

Guide To Features (Front Panel)

  1. POWER: Push to power the Music System+ On or Off (Standby).

  2. VOLUME/MENU/TREBLE: Rotate clockwise to increase the volume or counter-clockwise to decrease the volume. The volume level is represented in numbers from 0 (no output) to 30 (maximum output). If the volume ever sounds distorted, reduce the level immediately. In DAB and FM modes, push and hold the knob to access the menu. See the sections marked “DAB Menu” and “FM Menu”. Push briefly and rotate counter-clockwise to reduce the treble or clockwise to increase the treble. Press the volume knob in to set or the setting will store automatically and the display will return to its previous state. This knob is also used to adjust and enter selections (by pushing the knob in) when setting the Clock and Alarms. Adjusting the volume during Snooze will cancel the Snooze mode.

  3. ALARM 1/ALARM 2: Briefly press and hold Alarm 1 or 2. A beep will confirm you are in the alarm set-up mode and the corresponding green LED will illuminate. Rotate and press the Volume knob in to adjust and set the hour (Figure 1) and minutes (Figure 2) and press in to set and move to the next setting. Note, adjusting the hour does not affect the minutes and vise-versa. Set the alarm source (Figure 3 and 4) and alarm volume (Figure 5) in the same manner. Setting the alarm source to “AUX” will cause the alarm to wake to a tone. You will not be able to set the alarm source to CD if a CD isn’t loaded inside. Bluetooth cannot be selected as an alarm source. When the alarm LED is off, press the Alarm button once to set the alarm. The display will show the time the alarm is set to wake. When the alarm LED is on, press the Alarm button briefly to turn it off. If the alarm is set and power is lost, the alarm will still sound (the tone will sound in place of radio or CD) at the designated time provided fresh batteries are correctly installed in the rear battery compartment. When the alarm activates (Alarm LED flashes) you may either turn the unit off and keep the alarm set for the next day, press the Snooze button to temporarily mute the alarm for 7 minutes, or briefly press the Alarm button to cancel activation, turning the unit off, and keeping the alarm set to wake the next day. Adjusting the volume during Snooze will cancel Snooze mode.

  4. CLOCK: Press and hold to set. A beep will confirm you are in the clock set mode. Use the volume knob to select the hour (Figure 6) and then press the volume knob in to set and cycle to the minutes (Figure 7). Adjusting the hour does not affect the minutes and vise-versa. Repeat this process to set the year, month and the day (Figure 8, 9 and 10). Once set, press the Clock button briefly to recall the date and time whenever DAB, RDS or CD Text is displayed. When the date is shown, only the month and day will show (not the year).

  5. PRESETS 1­6: Press and hold to memorize the tuned station to that particular preset. A beep will sound confirming the station has been successfully stored. Press briefly to recall the station associated with that preset. There are 6 DAB presets and 6 FM presets. If a Preset button is pressed but no station has been set, the display will show “Preset Empty” for 2 seconds. These buttons will also act as limited direct track access during CD playback. The same station cannot be saved to more than 1 preset. Note the remote control’s 1 through 6 buttons cannot be used to save favorite stations to the presets, only recall them after they have been saved using the Music System+’s front panel buttons.

  6. SOURCE/BT: Briefly press to cycle through the sources: DAB, FM, CD, Bluetooth/Auxiliary. The source can’t be changed while the alarm is sounding. If the source is changed during CD playback and the source is changed back to CD again, the CD will start playback from the first track.

  7. SLEEP: With the Music System+ playing DAB, FM, CD, Bluetooth or an auxiliary device, briefly press to begin the 20 minute Sleep timer. The corresponding green LED will illuminate while the Sleep timer is active and the display will countdown the remaining Sleep time. The Music System+ will power off automatically at the end of the Sleep cycle. Sleep cannot be activated in CD mode unless a CD is loaded. Note DAB, RDS and CD Text will not be displayed in Sleep mode.

  8. / TUNE +/­- : Briefly press to advance to the next track on a disc or back to a previous track if the track has been playing for under 10 seconds. If the track has been playing for more than 10 seconds, pressing the button will re-start the currently playing track. Using these buttons during shuffle play may cause tracks to repeat. When listening to FM, press briefly to change the frequency up or down. In FM mode, press, hold, and release to seek for the next strongly received station. Press and hold to quickly advance through the frequencies. In DAB mode, press to access and navigate the DAB Station List. The volume knob may also be used to navigate when in the Station List. Press the volume knob in to tune a DAB station or press the “Enter” button on the remote. The Music System+ will return to the last-tuned station if no action is taken in the Station List after 3 seconds. Note the volume knob will not control the volume level when in the DAB Station List.

  9. STOP: Press to stop CD playback and return to the first track.

  10. PLAY/PAUSE: With a CD loaded, briefly press to initiate disc playback. Press during playback to Pause playback and press again to resume playback. If the CD is paused for more than 5 consecutive minutes it will revert to Stop.

  11. Briefly press to fast forward or fast reverse in approximately 10 second intervals. Press again to resume normal playback or press Play. These functions are not on the remote control. Due to the nature of MP3 CDs, using the fast reverse will cause the CD to stop playback once it reaches the start of the track. Also note fast forward and fast reverse will not operate during CD Intro mode. Pressing the fast scan buttons ( ) during shuffle play may cause tracks to repeat.

  12. EJECT: Press to Eject a CD. The display will show “Ejecting”. This button is to eject only and should NOT be used to load a CD. Always remove the disc in a straight position with-out bending the disc. In the unlikely event you experience an error or a disc remains stuck inside, disconnect the power cord for 60 seconds and reconnect firmly.

  13. AUDIO: Push briefly to cycle through Stereo, Wide mode, or Mono audio settings. The Wide mode setting is designed to create a more expansive soundstage, while the Mono setting reduces multiplex noise on weak FM stations, making otherwise unlistenable stations listenable. Regardless of the previous audio setting, the Wide mode will automatically engage each time the Music System+ is turned on.
    EQ: To temporarily turn the EQ off, press and hold the Audio button. The display will show “EQ Off” and a confirmation beep will sound. The EQ will engage again automatically the next time the Music System+ is turned on. To keep the EQ off, press and hold the Audio button and the display will show “EQ Always Off” and a confirmation beep will sound. The EQ will remain off until “EQ On” is selected. The EQ differs from Audio in that it enhances lower frequencies primarily at lower volume levels. We suggest the rear Bass level be set to the center detent position. Should the bass ever sound distorted, immediately lower the bass level and/or volume.

  14. INFO: When in DAB mode, briefly press repeatedly to view audio, signal strength, frequency, signal error, and bit rate. In FM mode, view audio, signal strength, PTY (Program Type, if any) and frequency.

  15. SNOOZE/MUTE (Top of Cabinet): When the Alarm activates, press this button to silence the alarm for 7 minutes. The display will count down the remaining Snooze time. Adjusting the volume level will cancel the Snooze mode. During normal operation, press this button to mute the audio. The display will show “Mute”. Press again to restore the audio output or adjust the volume level.

  16. HEADPHONE OUT: Connect a set of headphones (not included) to this variable stereo output for private listening. Plugging in the headphones will mute the primary speakers. The headphone’s volume is adjusted using the front panel volume knob. This stereo output accepts a 3.5 mm stereo male mini connector. Avoid using headphones at high volume levels to prevent possible hearing damage.

  17. IR SENSOR: Receives signals from the included remote control. Do not obstruct this sensor.

  18. SLOT-LOAD: Insert a disc (with printing side facing up) until it is drawn inside. The display will say “Loading”. Disc functions will not work while the disc is loading. Playback will begin automatically once the table of contents is read. The display will show “No Disc” when the unit is set to CD mode and there is no CD inside. When ejecting a CD the display will show “Ejecting”. For more, see “Important Notes About the CD Player.”

Guide To Features (Rear Panel)

  1. ANTENNA SWITCH: Switch between the internal and the external DAB/FM antenna.
  2. EXTERNAL ANTENNA: An external telescoping antenna is affixed to this input. Adjust for best reception. For more, see the section marked “Digital Radio/FM Reception”.
  3. AUX IN: To hear audio from another device such as a TV or MP3 player, connect said device’s audio output to this stereo input and set the Source button to AUX. Switching to the Auxiliary position does not turn on the connected device. This stereo input accepts a 3.5 mm stereo male mini connector. Note you may need to adjust the volume level differently for an auxiliary device than the level used for radio or CD listening.
  4. MIX IN: Connect your computer’s (or other device’s) audio output to this input to hear its audio mixed in with the tuner, CD, or auxiliary device if one is connected. The volume level of this input must be adjusted at the source. This input accepts a 3.5mm male stereo mini connector.
  5. REC OUT: You can record from the Music System+ by connecting a cassette deck’s audio input (or other recording device) to this fixed level stereo output. The primary speakers will not be muted when using this output. This jack accepts a 3.5 mm stereo male mini connector.
  6. BASS LEVEL: Turn this control knob to the right to increase the bass volume level or to the left to decrease the bass volume level. The subwoofer is designed to subtly augment the lower bass frequencies, not overpower the sound. Tivoli Audio recommends setting this knob to the center detent position. If the bass should ever sound distorted, immediately lower the bass level control and/or the front volume control.
  7. POWER INPUT: Connect the supplied power cord to this input and plug the cord into a wall outlet not controlled by a switch. If the power cord is removed from the unit or unplugged from the wall outlet, please wait 60 seconds before plugging the cord back into the Music System+. When power is restored the unit will auto eject a CD if one is inside.
  8. BATTERY COMPARTMENT: Properly install the included “AA” batteries to maintain the clock and alarm settings during a power outage. Check the batteries annually. The display will show “No Batteries” if there are no batteries installed or the batteries have no or low power. Dispose of spent batteries according to your state/country’s regulations. When operating on the battery back-up power, the Music System+’s display and LEDs will not illuminate in order to conserve power, but if set, the alarm will still sound at the designated time. In such a case, the tone will sound instead of the radio or CD to further conserve battery power.

Remote Control (Remove clear tab over battery before use)

In addition to duplicating most of the front panel controls, the remote control adds the following functions:

  1. REPEAT: With a CD playing, press once to repeat the track being played; Press twice to repeat the entire disc; Press again to cancel the Repeat mode or press stop. The Repeat Once ( ) and Repeat All ( ) icons will show on the Music System+’s display when active. Repeat 1 cannot be used in conjunction with Shuffle.

  2. SHUFF (SHUFFLE): With a CD playing, briefly press to play the tracks in random order. The Shuffle icon ( ) will show on the Music System+’s display when active. Press the Shuffle button a second time to cancel shuffle play or press Stop. Otherwise, CD playback will stop once all tracks have been played. Pressing the track up or down ( ) on the remote and on the Music System+ during shuffle play may cause tracks to repeat. Note that MP3 CDs with many tracks may repeat some songs in Shuffle mode. Shuffle cannot be used in conjunction with Repeat 1, Repeat All, or Intro.

  3. INTRO: With a CD playing, briefly press to audition 10 seconds of each track. The Intro icon ( ↵ ) will show on the Music System+’s display when active. Press a second time to cancel Intro play or press Stop. Otherwise, CD playback will stop once all tracks have played.
    Note: The above functions cannot be activated while the disc is loading. If two of the above functions are used at the same time, both icons will alternate on the display until finished.

  4. FOLDER +/– : Advance or go back to a previous MP3 folder.

  5. MENU/SELECT: Same function as pressing the Volume Control in on the Music System+ to set selections or adjust the treble.

  6. 7, 8, 9, 0: Use these buttons in addition to the 1-6 buttons to access a CD track directly. A two second window is provided to enter another digit after the first digit is entered. Saved favorite station presets can be recalled using the 1 through 6 buttons on the remote control. However, favorite stations can only be saved using the 1 through 6 buttons on the Music System+’s front panel. Controlling volume via the remote is performed using the up/down arrow buttons, while DAB and FM tuning is controlled using the Left and Right arrow (CD track) buttons. When operating the remote control at close distances the display might pulse. This is normal and is a direct result of the remote’s ability to operate at greater distances. When it comes time to replace the remote control’s battery, use a 3V Lithium Cell #CR2025, installed with the positive side facing the bottom side of the remote.

WARNING: DO NOT INGEST BATTERY, CHEMICAL BURN HAZARD. The remote control supllied with this product contains a coin/button cell battery. If the coin/button cell battery is swallowed, it can cause severe internal burns in just 2 hours and can lead to death. Keep new and used batteries away from children. If the battery compartment does not close securely, stop using the product and keep it away from children. If you think batteries might have been swallowed or placed inside any part of the body, skeek immediate medical attention.

Getting the most from your Music System+

  1. Treat the Music System+ as you would a home stereo system. Although the audio from a computer or laptop can be connected to the Music System+, it’s not intended for near-field (close-up) listening like “computer speakers”. As with a home stereo system, listening at a distance will yield the best results.

  2. The Wide mode and EQ settings allow you to tailor the Music System+’s sound to your liking depending on the program material, room size and volume level. We’ve spent countless hours of critical listening using a variety of material with different settings and at different volume levels. In general we recommend the treble control be kept in the “0” position. At high volume levels, for the most accurate reproduction, we recommend keeping the EQ off and the Audio
    setting in Stereo or Mono (not Wide) mode.

  3. Should you ever experience a problem, remove the batteries and the power cord for 60 seconds, then reinstall the batteries and re-attach the cord. This should restore normal operation.

Important Notes About the CD Player

  • Do not try to insert a disc in the slot if one is already inside the unit.
  • The display does not show the total disc time for MP3/WMA CDs due to their often very lengthy table of contents. Total time will be shown for commercial music CDs but if either track +/- buttons are pressed, the total time will disappear since the initial mode was changed.
  • You may experience a delay in playback when inserting MP3 or WMA discs while the player reads the directory. Playback will be delayed slightly while the table of contents is read.
  • Disc functions will not work while the disc is loading.
  • Do not use the Eject button to load a CD.
  • Changing sources while a CD is playing causes the CD to stop playback. Playback will resume when the source is set to CD again.
  • The sound quality of MP3, CD-R/CD-RW, and even commercially recorded discs can vary greatly. The same holds true for the sound quality of portable MP3 players.
  • Do NOT use any CD lens cleaning discs since these are not designed for slot-load machines.
  • Avoid bending the disc when loading or ejecting.
  • Do not move the unit while a disc is playing and do not ship the unit with a CD inside.
  • Do not insert specially shaped discs or 3″ CD “single” discs.
  • Paper labels stuck to CDR/CDRWs may become loose and possibly damage the player.
  • CDs with severe scratches may not play properly.
  • Do not insert anything except a CD inside the loading slot.
  • In the rare event you experience an error, unplug the power cord for 60 seconds and then plug it back in firmly.

Bluetooth Operation

Prior to pairing, verify your device supports Bluetooth and your device is not connected to any other Bluetooth product. Devices may pair differently. Below is a general guide.

  1. Turn on the Music System+ to the Auxiliary position. This will power on the Bluetooth. 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. You will hear a ring tone from the Music System+ confirming connection and 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 Music System+, but please give your device adequate time to Pair or Connect before repeating the process.

Reception/RDS

The internal DAB/FM antenna will provide good reception. The supplied external DAB/FM antenna will usually provide improved reception. Fully extend the antenna. If a noisy FM station is received, setting the Audio button to “Mono” may help to clear up some of the multiplex noise.
The Radio Data System (RDS) transmits text information along with audio broadcasts. Program Service data will be shown in the upper right corner when available. Not all FM stations utilize RDS, thus text data may not be present with some stations. For stations using RDS, text may not appear or may appear scrambled if the signal is too weak. Experimenting with the FM antenna position may improve RDS reception. RDS content is determined by each individual FM station, therefore if any data is shown incorrectly, this is not a fault of the unit. There are also limitations in terms of the kinds of characters that can be displayed. Therefore it is not unusual to see a different character or blank space in cases where the precise character can’t be reproduced. Note RDS text will not be displayed in Sleep mode.
Buildings made with concrete, steel, or aluminum siding will hinder reception. Household appliances, electric blankets, computers, and other electronic devices can also adversely affect reception or inject noise. If you experience this, move the Music System+ further from the offending device or plug it into an electrical outlet not shared by another device.

Placement

Place the Music System+ on a solid, flat, stable surface strong enough to support its weight. Placement in a bookcase, cabinet, or close to walls or corners may inflate the bass, creating an unnatural sound. Do not obstruct the vents on the rear panel, as these are for sound as well as internal heat ventilation.
The CD player built into the Music System+ has excellent shock protection, but it is not shock proof. We, therefore, recommend the Music System+ be placed on a flat, level surface that is not subject to vibration.
The Music System+ is shielded and may be placed near or below a TV or computer monitor.

Cleaning

For your own safety, be sure the Music System+ is disconnected from the power outlet during cleaning. Never use any harsh cleansers or solvents on your radio. Fingerprints may be removed from the cabinet using the included cloth. The face may be cleaned with a slightly damp cloth only if necessary.
An important note about the wood cabinet: The variation in color and grain are characteristics of real wood and contribute to the cabinet’s natural beauty. The veneer for each cabinet is unique. As a result, the cabinet’s finish may not match other Tivoli Audio products.
Depending on the veneer, you might also notice the wood darken over time with exposure to light. This is normal.
It is also possible dyed veneers such as blue, red, etc., could fade from exposure to sunlight.
This is not covered under the warranty.
