IMPORTANT Instructions

CAUTION
Risk of Electric Shock Do Not Open

To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not remove the screws located on the back of the product. There are no parts whose maintenance can be performed by the user. If necessary, contact qualified service personnel.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user of the presence of important operating and maintenance instructions in the

The lightning bolt arrow located within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user of the presence of non-insulated “dangerous voltage” within the product that may be of sufficient magnitude to cause electric shock to the user.

WARNINGS ABOUT THE USE AND THE OPERATION OF THE UNIT

WARNING
The main switch does not completely shut off all power from the AC outlet. Since the power cord serves as the main disconnecting device for the unit from the power source, the cord should be unplugged from the AC outlet to shut down all current flow. Then, verify that the unit has been installed so as to easily unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, if necessary. In addition, to avoid fire hazard, the power cord should be unplugged from the AC outlet if the unit is not going to be used for relatively long periods of time (for example, when on vacation).

VENTILATION WARNING
Install the unit ensuring to leave room around it for proper air circulation and for improving heat radiation (at least 10 cm from top, 10 cm from rear, and 10 cm from each side).

CAUTION

• The product case is equipped with small openings which also serve for ventilation, in order to ensure reliable operation and to protect it from overheating. To prevent fire hazard, the openings should never be blocked or covered during operation (by objects such as newspapers, tablecloths, curtains, or drapes, etc.) and the device should not be placed on thick carpet or on the bed.
• If the plug of the power cord of this unit does not match the AC outlet into which you want to insert the plug itself, it must be replaced with one fit for the purpose. The replacement of the plug of the power cord must be performed only by qualified service personnel. After replacement, the old plug cut off from the power cord must be properly disposed of, to avoid possible severe electrical shock due to accidental insertion of the plug itself into a live power outlet. If you do not plan to use the unit for a relatively long period (e.g. during a holiday), unplug the power cord from the AC outlet.
• To avoid fire hazard, do not place any naked flame sources (e.g. lighted candles or similar) on the unit
• Before plugging in the device to a power source for the first time, carefully read the section below.
• The voltage of the available power supply differs from country to country and from region to region. Check that the mains power supply in the area where this unit will be used provides the required voltage (e.g. 240 V or 110 V); the value is on the label of the AC adapter.
• This product is intended for household use only. Any failure due to different uses (such as long-term use for business purposes, in a restaurant, or use in a car, or ship), which requires particular repair shall be charged to the user, even if occurred during the warranty period.
• Before using the product, always read the safety information on the back of this unit and the AC adapter label.
• Keep the product and its accessories out of the reach of children and infants. If accidentally swallowed, contact a doctor immediately.
• Keep the AC adapter away from the reach of children and infants.
• The AC adapter cord may accidentally wrap around the neck and cause choking.

WARNING REGARDING THE POWER CORD
Always hold the power cord by the plug. Do not pull the cord by the cable and never touch the power cord when your hands are wet, as this could cause short circuit or electric shock. Do not place the unit, or other objects, on the power cord and check that it is not pinched. Never tie a knot in the cord or tie it with other cords. The power cords should be routed so that they cannot be stepped on. A damaged power cord can cause fire or electric shock. Check the power cord regularly. If it is damaged, ask your nearest SIM2 BV International authorized service center or your dealer for a replacement power cord.

ENVIRONMENTAL OPERATING CONDITIONS
Ideal range of operating temperature and humidity:
from +5°C to +35°C, relative humidity less than 85% (uncovered product).
Do not install the unit in a poorly ventilated area, or in locations exposed to high humidity or direct sunlight (or strong artificial light sources).

AIRWAVE WARNINGS
This unit uses 2.4 GHz radio frequencies, also used by other wireless systems (such as microwave ovens and cordless telephones).
If there is noise on the TV screen, it is possible that this unit (or units supported by it) is causing interference with the signals from the input connector of your TV, VCR, satellite tuner, etc.

SIM2 BV International is not responsible for any malfunction of the product due to errors/malfunctions associated with its connection and/or equipment it is connected to. Contact the manufacturer of the product you want to pair.

ATTENTION TO THE AC ADAPTER
Ensure to firmly grasp the case of the AC adapter if you need to unplug it from the outlet. If you pull the power cord, it may get damaged, causing a fire and/or electric shock. Do not try to unplug the AC adapter with your bare hands. This may cause electric shock.
Do not leave the power cord of the AC adapter into the socket if the connection is unreliable, also when the plug is completely inserted into the socket. This may generate enough heat to cause a fire. Consult a dealer or an electrician to replace the outlet.

3. Connect the device to the TS522D+S unit, the device will show the “Connected” status and the radio LED will change from flashing to solid (if the pairing was successful).
4. At this point, with the TS522D+S radio it will be possible to wirelessly play the music stored inside the associated device.
5. While a device is connected via Bluetooth, if you want to pair it with another Bluetooth device, you must first disconnect it by pressing and holding the PAIR button for about 3 seconds until you hear a “beep” sound, or by disabling the connection established directly from the Bluetooth menu of the associated device. The unit will switch directly to pairing mode and, at this point, you can connect another device.
