Bluetooth®
You can listen to tracks from a media device if connected to the soundbar via Bluetooth® wireless technology.
Pairing Bluetooth® Devices
The first time you use your Bluetooth® device with the soundbar, you will need to pair them with one another. Activate Bluetooth® on your compatible device, and set it to search for compatible devices. Select ‘BAUHN ASBBT-0724’ from the list of found devices.
Note: Only one playback unit can be connected to the soundbar. If the soundbar is already connected to another playback unit, the soundbar will not appear in the Bluetooth® selection list. To disconnect the existing paired device. Press and hold the / buttons on the soundbar simultaneously to disconnect the paired Bluetooth device. If your device asks for a passkey (depending on the device manufacturers, model and software version), then enter the digits “0000” and press OK.
18 | BLUETOOTH

The operational range between this soundbar and a Bluetooth® device is approximately 10 metres (without any object between the Bluetooth® enabled device and the soundbar). Any obstacles between the devices can reduce the operational range.
Before you connect a Bluetooth® enabled device to this soundbar, ensure you know the device’s capabilities. Compatibility with all Bluetooth® devices is not guaranteed.
If the signal strength is weak, your Bluetooth® receiver may disconnect, but it will re-enter pairing mode automatically.
If a mobile phone on which you are playing music receives a call, the music will be interrupted. The phone call audio however is not played via the soundbar. Once you end the call, the devices are connected to each other again and playback resumes.
Your device will also be disconnected when your device is moved beyond the operational range. If you want to reconnect your device, place it within the operational range.
If the connection is lost, follow the instructions (left) to pair your device to the soundbar again.
