hörbert Bedienungsanleitung deutsch
Seite 2/6
To open hörbert, unscrew the backscrew completely
counterclockwise.
A suitable tool for this is, for example, a
coin.
Now slide the back panel out downwards. Make sure
that it does not slip out unintentionally.
Remove the supplied memory card from the glassine bag
if you have ordered a memory card for it, or use your own
SDHC card between 4 and 512 GB and insert it into the SD
card slot provided inside hörbert. Inserting or changing
memory cards may only be done by an adult!
Insert or change batteries
Switch off hörbert before opening the rear panel! Batteries
may only be inserted or changed by an adult!
Place hörbert in front of you with the colored keys facing
down.
To open hörbert, turn the back panel screw
counterclockwise all the way out. A suitable tool for this is
e.g. a
coin
. Now slide the back panel out downwards.
Make sure that it does not slip out unintentionally.
To remove the batteries, pull them vertically upwards out of
the battery clips (7). The batteries fit very tightly so that they
cannot fall out during play.
Tip: As an aid, thread a string underneath a battery. This
makes it easy to pull it up without damaging the circuit
board, the battery or the battery clips
. Now insert four AA
batteries (1.5 V) or, even better, rechargeable batteries
(1.2 or 1.5 V) into the battery clips. Make sure that the +
and - poles are in the correct position.
Tip: The batteries audibly click into place. Now push the
back panel back in and tighten the back panel screw
clockwise. For the last turns, you can again use a coin as
an aid.
Safety note
: Do not use batteries where the casing is
damaged (e.g. scratched open). This can lead to short
circuits and damage to the batteries and the device.
Always use four batteries of the same type from the same
pack.
Switch on and off
Switch hörbert on by pressing the top of the rotary knob (1)
once
. hörbert will continue to play from the last passage
heard after a short acknowledgement tone. Switch hörbert
off again after use by pressing the rotary knob (1) again.
By default, hörbert does not switch off by itself, but
continuously repeats the tracks behind the last pressed
selection button. It is possible to set an automatic switch-off
time (sleep timer). See the SET functions from page 3.
Set volume
If you turn the rotary knob (1) counterclockwise, hörbert
becomes quieter. If you turn the rotary knob (1) clockwise,
hörbert will play louder. When the maximum volume is
reached, hörbert no longer gets louder.
hörbert offers an additional volume limitation (Piano/Forte).
See the SET functions starting on page 3.
Navigation through the contents
The content on hörbert is organized in so-called "playlists".
Behind each of nine colored buttons (2) is a playlist, e.g. a
complete music CD or a radio play.
To navigate through the music and radio plays on hörbert,
press one of the colored selection buttons (2). Now hörbert
plays the first track of the playlist that was stored behind this
button.
The next time you press the same button, hörbert jumps to
the second title of the playlist that was stored behind this
button, and so on. After the last title hörbert jumps back to
the first title of the playlist behind this key.
Fast forward and rewind
As long as the fast forward button (3) is pressed, hörbert
plays fast forward. You can listen along to find a specific part
of a title. Pressing the skip back button (4) takes you back
to the beginning of the currently playing title. If you then
press the return key again
twice in quick succession
, you go
to the previous track in the playlist, and so on. This can be
repeated until you reach the first title of this playlist..
Handling of the memory card
The memory card is inserted in the card holder (9).
Above it, there is a printed card symbol that shows you the
direction in which the card must be pulled out of the card
holder. The memory card has a recess on its upper edge,
which you can use to pull it out with your thumbnail. Other
cards can also be pushed out with the thumb and light
pressure from above on the visible card surface.
Please handle the card and the card holder with care, these
parts are very delicate compared to the rest.
To insert the memory card, please also follow the printed
card symbol above the card holder (9). Place the card on
the symbol and then carefully push it down into the card
holder (9) until it can be seen a little in the slot of the card
holder.
(Open and close hörbert as described under "Inserting or
changing batteries").
Maintenance and care
Wood is a natural product. As such, hörbert's case may
react to moisture by swelling and warping.
Although we counteract such problems by the stable
construction, you should always keep hörbert dry and not
expose it to great cold or heat.
Over time, the wooden case will darken. This is also a natural
process over which we, as the manufacturer, have no
influence.
For cleaning, we recommend wiping hörbert with a dry or
only very slightly damp cloth. Do not use any cleaning
agents for this purpose, as they can lead to severe
discoloration or be absorbed by the wood and then slowly
released into the environment.
By design, hörbert has a saliva-proof and sweat-proof
varnish that protects the wood from contamination and
moisture fluctuations.
Other than the occasional replacement of batteries and
digital content, hörbert requires no further care.
Nevertheless, it is recommended to check hörbert for
damage from time to time to avoid risking injury to children
playing with it.
Most damages in the wood can be corrected with a very fine
sandpaper, because the material wood is very "good-
natured" in this respect.
