Connect the AC power adapter to the rear jack of the DC-7BT connector labeled “DC In” and then plug the adaptor supplied AC power adaptor into a wall power outlet. The blue LED light will flash once to indicate the docking station is powered up and ready to be paired with your Bluetooth source device (such as iPad, cell phone, etc.)

Bluetooth Pairing

1.Go to the Bluetooth Manager of your source device by following these steps.

a.From your source (iPhone, iPod etc.) home page, select

“Settings”

b.Inside Settings tap on “General” or “Wireless settings”

c.Inside General, tap on “Bluetooth”

2.Select “Bluetooth devices” or “Bluetooth settings” and scan for (Bluetooth) devices.

3.A device should soon be displayed on the list that usually reads “Bluetooth Music Receiver”. Select it by touching it or clicking on it.

4.If required enter ‘0000’ when the player asks for the pin code.

This will allow the source to pair with the DC-7BT Bluetooth Dock.

5.Once paired, the blue LED light on the DC-7BT will flash once. The blue LED light will stay on when a connection is established.

Some devices, such as the iPhone, will connect immediately after pairing and the LED will stay on. Other devices, such as laptops, may ask you if you wish to connect and the LED may turn off until after pairing is established.

Although the DC-7BT can only play music from one device at a time, it is capable of being paired with up to eight source devices. This means that you only have to enter the PIN code one time for each device.

Your DC-7BT Bluetooth Dock is now connected and ready to play music! Simply play music on your device, as you normally would and the sound will come out of your stereo speakers.

Please note the DC-7BT Bluetooth Dock has a max 50’ (15m) range.

Reconnecting your Device

If you move out of range or turn off the Bluetooth feature on your iPhone or iPod, the DC-7BT will disconnect from your device. To reconnect, simply access the Bluetooth Manager on your device, and select the appropriate device listed. You should not be asked to enter the PIN code again.

Changing Connected Device

If you want to switch from one device to another follow these steps:

1.End the existing Bluetooth connection with the connected device. Access the Bluetooth Manager and disable the Bluetooth function of the iPhone or iPod touch.

2.The DC-7BT Bluetooth Dock can now be connected to a different source such as an iPhone or iPod.

3.Follow the directions in “Bluetooth Pairing” to connect to a different device.

Out of Range or Lost Signal

If the source music device is out of range (beyond 30-50 feet) of the DC-7BT or if something is blocking the signal, the LED light will turn off to indicate that the Bluetooth connection with the music device has been lost. To avoid lost connections:

1.Move the music device back into range (within 30-50 feet) and/or make sure there is a clear line of sight and that there are no obstructions between the DC-7BT receiver and the music source (iPhone or iPod etc.).

2.Within 15 seconds the connection will automatically be reestablished and the blue LED light will turn on.

3.If the connection is lost for more than 15 seconds, the connection will need to be reestablished. Follow the directions in “Reconnecting your Device” above.

You can quickly solve most problems with your DC-7BT Bluetooth Dock by following the advice in this section.
