Operation
1. Insert transmitter to 12V car cigarette socket power.
1.1. You take a normal SD card or a USB flash drive and copy the MP3 files
from the PC directly on the memory media.
Do not (!) create folders, only copy the music files.
1.2. Search for a free frequency in the car radio (means you hear a hissing
and no radio) and save this frequency on one of the storage spaces of the
car radio.
1.3. Adjust the same frequency on the device with the |<< or >>| key and
confirm it with the „CH“ button.
1.4. Plug in the memory media (SD card or USB flash drive) and the playback
starts automatically.
Please take a look for the correct card position – plug it into the device
with the contact area on top.
(Normally the device only reads SD cards up to 4GB, but we also tested it
successfully with SDHC cards up to 32GB.)
Important is the FAT32 formating and that the files are „normal“ MP3 files
(no .wma files or files coded with DRM).
2. When connected, the tranmitter music playback starts automatically and the
frequency is shown on the display. After approx. 30 seconds the display turns off
automatically. By pushing any key, the display recovers. By pushing (PAUSE)
the LEDs are flashing.

The device plays the files in order of saving them on the memory media. If
you save the files 1,2,3 in the row 2-1-3 then they are played in the row (2-1-3).
Please notice that e.g. the Windows Explorer only shows a sorting of files virtually,
means the files are show virtually in a special row, but on the memory media
nothing is changed.
3. The “CH” key switchs between emission frequency. By pushing the key,
the display shows current frequency while music is playing. Push the

key and
the next frequency is shown, push the

key and the previous frequency is
shown.
4. By pushing the key the broadcasted music pauses and by pushing it
again, playback starts again.
By pushing the „PLAY“ key of the device a little bit longer, you can change the
playback mode of the device.
„ALL“ – The device plays all music files in the row again and again.
„onE“ – The actual played music file is played again and again.
„rAn“ – Random playback.
5. By pushing the

key the previous title is played. Push the key for some
seconds, volume is reduced.
6. By pushing the

key the next title is played. Push the key for some seconds,
volume is increased.
7. No audio signal for the device, it shuts OFF automatically after 55 seconds.
