Remote control

First use
Connect the soundbar with the power adapter cable (11) and a socket. Connect the included antenna with the antenna interface (14) and place the antenna near a window, a spot with low radiation of other electric devices to avoid signal distortion.
Press and hold the power button (6) for three seconds. The soundbar starts up in DAB mode. Now it searches for DAB stations automatically. You can also use the soundbar with Bluetooth, AUX-In, USB stick, optical in or HDMI ARC. With the mode button (7) you can change the mode from Bluetooth to AUX, USB, FM/DAB+-radio, optical in or HDMI ARC.

Modes
Switch through the modes by press the mode button (7) on the soundbar or the mode button on the remote control (2).

Bluetooth Mode
The speaker must be powered on before you begin to initiate the pairing. Pairing is the process of establishing a link between TX-139 and a Bluetooth device.
Note: Activate the Bluetooth feature on the phone, and set the phone to search for Bluetooth devices. Check the user guide of your phone for instructions.
Select the soundbar ,,Technaxx TX-139″ from the list of found devices. When asked the PIN code, please enter “0000” to pair the speaker to your phone.
If the pairing is successful, you will hear a connection sound and the speaker enters idle state.
