Remote control battery replacement
1. Remove the battery cover on the rear of your remote control by applying pressure to the catch
in the direction shown by the arrow in the diagram, and then lifting the cover.
2. Insert 2 x AAA size batteries into the compartment. Make sure the (+) and the (-) ends of the
batteries are positioned as shown inside the compartment.
3. Close the battery cover by inserting the retaining lugs rst, then apply pressure to the free end
such that the catch latches the cover securely.
4. If the remote is not to be used for an extended period of time it is recommended that the
batteries are removed.
IMPORTANT:
The batteries should not be exposed to excessive heat such as sunshine, re or the like. After
use, disposable batteries should if possible be taken to a suitable recycling centre. On no
account should batteries be disposed of by incineration.

Connect the speaker system
1. Extend the speaker wires and connect to the speaker output L and R.
NOTE:
On the supplied wires, the copper wires is dened as Positive in polarity
while the tin plated wire is Negative in polarity
2. Make sure the Channel (L and R) and also polarity (+ and -) are all
correctly connected.
IMPORTANT:
Do not switch on the power until the speaker system is connected.
Using the touch panel
The DMS-37BT sound system has a stylish touch panel instead of
conventional buttons.
To operate the buttons simply touch the button area with the tip of a
finger for about half a second. Sleep function and Bluetooth paring
function marked with a dot (●) are accessed by means of a long touch
(2-3 seconds) on the appropriate button until the display on the sound
system shows that the command has been accepted.
You may find that at first, the sound system does not always detect
that you have touched a button. If so, try touching with a little more
pressure, or for slightly longer. You will soon find the optimum touch
needed to control your sound system. (See also the section of” Touch
Panel Sensitivity Control”)
The panel may be cleaned using a dry cloth. Do not use abrasives,
cleaning uids or solvents.
Remote control functions
Most of the functions of the DMS-37BT sound system can be controlled
using either the touch panel or the remote control.
However, there are a few functions which are only accessible using the
remote control. These are:
DAB / FM radio station presets DAB / FM auto-tune
DAB menu function CD / USB / SD CARD track access
by numbers
CD / USB / SD CARD random
track control
Audio mute
As with the front panel, some operations require a longer operation
of the button (explained in the relevant sections). In this case simply
keep your nger held on the remote control button for 2-3 seconds until
the display on the sound system shows that the command has been
accepted.

Bluetooth remote control options
Your radio has the option of being controlled by an application installed
on an Apple iPhone, iPod touch or iPod. The Bluetooth facility allows
you to ensure that your radio can only be controlled by your own Apple
device rather than someone else’s.
Download the control application of 'Sangean R' on Apple store if
you are using iOS system or Google play if Android system is used.
Details of how to link Bluetooth to you iPhone / iPod touch are explained
in the later section called “Listening to Bluetooth music”
Note:
Only support resolution of 400x800 pixel& 1080x1920 pixel of a Android
smartphone. Resolution other than the one mentioned above may result
in different screen display.
Using the sound system for the rst time
1. Place your sound system on a at surface.
2. Fully extend the telescopic aerial. The aerial should be fully extended
and positioned vertically for optimum reception.
3. Plug the mains lead into the mains socket located on the back of your
sound system ensuring that the plug is pushed fully into the socket.
4. Plug the other end of the mains lead into the wall socket and switch
on the wall socket.
IMPORTANT:
The mains plug is used as the means of connecting the sound system
to the mains supply. The mains socket used for the sound system must
remain accessible during normal use. In order to disconnect the sound
system from the mains completely, the mains plug should be removed
from the mains socket outlet completely.
5. When your sound system is first switched on the clock display will
show 12:00 and the unit will enter standby mode. It will then scan for
DAB radio stations and when stations have been found the clock and
date should be set automatically. Note that the display will not show
any scanning message for this rst scan.
6. If no stations have been found then the clock will not set. You may
need to relocate your sound system to a position giving better reception.
You should then carry out an auto-tune to nd DAB stations. See the
section of 'DAB operation' and also 'Finding New Stations' in the
following pages. The clock will then be set from a DAB broadcast.

received your radio will display “Service not available”.
6. If no signals are found it may be necessary to relocate your sound system to a position giving
better reception, and then repeat the scan using the Auto-tune facility (see the section of
“Finding New Stations”).
Note that radio station name and frequency displays shown in this user guide may differ from
those that you see on your radio. Broadcasters may change radio station names that are
transmitted, and the frequencies used for DAB and FM radio stations may not be the same in all
