4. Product characteristics

The FM transmitter is used to send music or speech from a mobile device (smartphone, tablet, etc.) in high quality to an FM playback device (e.g. car radio) in the car, caravan or boat. At the same time, up to two devices can be charged simultaneously via the USB ports. The FM transmitter is compatible with all devices that have a Bluetooth ® function. The FM transmitter can also send music or voice directly from a USB stick (max. 32GB) or a micro-SD card (max. 32GB).

5. Operation

• Plug the FM transmitter into a car power socket, then establish the Bluetooth® connection between the mobile device and the FM transmitter as described below.
• Alternatively, audio files can be transferred directly from a USB stick or a micro-SD card.

Note           ****

• On some types of vehicle, the ignition must be switched on for the voltage to travel to the 12V vehicle socket. For more information, please refer to your vehicle’s owners’ manual.
• Disconnect all cable and vehicle electrical system connections after use.

5.1 Bluetooth® pairing

Note           ****

• Check whether your mobile device (MP3 player, mobile phone, etc.) is Bluetooth®-capable.
• If not, you can only use the FM transmitter for playback by means of a USB stick or a micro-SD card.
• Note that the maximum range for Bluetooth® is 10 metres without obstacles such as walls, people, etc.
• Ensure your Bluetooth®-enabled device is switched on and that Bluetooth is activated.
• Plug the FM transmitter into a car socket that is close to the car radio
• Ensure that the FM transmitter is within the Bluetooth® range of max. 10 metres.
• Open the Bluetooth® settings on your device and wait until the list of found Bluetooth® devices shows BT21H.
• Select BT21H and wait until the FM transmitter is showing as connected in your device’s Bluetooth® settings. The display now shows a transmission frequency.

Note – Bluetooth® password               ****

Some devices require a password in order to connect to another Bluetooth® device.

• If your device requests a password to connect to the FM transmitter, enter 0000.

Note – connection impaired               ****

After the FM transmitter and device have been paired, a connection is established automatically. If the Bluetooth® connection is not established automatically, check the following:
