4. You will hear a ring tone from the Music System Three confirming connection and you
can begin playing your music files wirelessly. Adjust the volume level on your device.
You should not have to pair your device again. Depending on your device, you may
need to make multiple attempts at Pairing and/or Connecting to the Music System
Three, but please give your device adequate time to Pair or Connect before repeat-
ing the process.

14 – ENGLISH
Pairing A Bluetooth Wireless Technology Enabled
iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad
1. Press the Music System Three's front panel Bluetooth button or change the source to
Bluetooth. This will power on the Bluetooth. Turn the volume up about ¼ to start. Also
turn up the volume on the source device (the device you are streaming from).
2. Select “Settings” (depending on software version).
3. Select “General”.
4. Select “Bluetooth”.
5. Switch Bluetooth “On” to initiate searching.
6.
Select “Tivoli Bluetooth (Not Paired)” when it appears on the display. If you are
prompted to enter a PIN, enter “0000”. “Tivoli Bluetooth” will change from “Not Paired”
to “Connected”.
7.
You will hear a ring tone from the Music System Three and you can begin playing your
music files wirelessly. Adjust the volume level on your device. You should not have to pair
your iPhone/iPod/iPad again.
The volume output level of music files varies. If you prefer an even higher output level, check
the settings in your iPhone/iPod touch/iPad: Set the EQ Off, the SoundCheck Off, and the
Volume limit Off.
If you encounter a problem Pairing, press the small arrow to the right of “Tivoli Bluetooth” on
your iPhone/iPod touch/iPad display and select “Forget this Device”, then repeat the Pairing
process. Depending on your device, you may need to make multiple attempts at Pairing
and/or Connecting to the Music System Three, but please give your device adequate
time to Pair or Connect before repeating the process.
When streaming music, you can press the blue arrow to the right of the next track button >>/ on
the iPhone/iPod touch/iPad display to alternate between the iPhone/iPod/iPad and Bluetooth.
NOTE:
• The Music System Three will remember pairing information for up to 8 devices. Ad-
ditional devices can be paired, but the least-recently used device will be replaced by
the newly paired device.
• If the audio drops out or stops during playback, move your device closer to the Mu-
sic System Three, or check to be sure another wireless device is not interfering with
the signal.
• When switching from Bluetooth to AM or FM, you may need to re-adjust (lower) the
radio’s volume level.
About the Battery Pack
The installed Li-Ion battery pack is partially charged. To charge the battery pack, con-
nect the provided external power supply to the radio and plug it in. A full charge will take
approximately 12 hours, while 2-3 hours will provide about a 75% charge. The display will
show the charging/battery status only when operating on battery power.
Battery almost empty, please charge 1/3 charged
2/3 charged Fully charged

15 – ENGLISH
The flashing plug icon means the battery is charging, while the steady plug icon means
the adapter is connected.
Keeping the adapter connected even after the battery pack is fully charged will do no harm.
Partial charging is preferred over full charging of a very low battery pack. Playback time on
battery power varies by volume level and program material. When operating on battery-
only power with the Music System Three turned off, all power to the unit is cut in order to
preserve battery power. Therefore, the remote control will not function and the Sleep timer
and Alarms will not operate.
Should you need to replace your battery pack, only use a genuine Tivoli Audio replace-
ment battery pack.
CAUTION: Danger of fire or explosion if the battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace
only with the same type. Dispose of spent battery according to your country’s
regulations.
AM/FM Reception
The included external FM antenna will provide good reception. In strong FM signal loca-
tions, reducing the antenna’s length may provide better reception. This antenna has no
effect on AM reception.
If you are listening to a noisy FM station,press the Stage button on the remote until an
“M” appears on the display. Placing the tuner in Mono may make noisy FM stations more
listenable.
For the AM band, since the AM ferrite rod antenna is internal, rotate the Music System
Three for best reception. An optional external wireless AM antenna may provide improved
AM reception.
Buildings made with concrete, steel, or aluminum siding will hinder reception. Household
appliances, electric blankets, computers, CD players, and other electronic devices can also
adversely affect reception or inject noise. If you experience this, move the Music System
Three further from the offending device or plug it into an electrical outlet not shared by
another device.
RDS (FM Band only)
The Radio Data System (RDS) transmits text data along with the audio broadcast. Not all
FM stations utilize this service, thus text may not be present with some stations. For sta-
tions broadcasting RDS, the text still might not appear, or might appear scrambled if the
signal is too weak. In such cases, experiment with the position of the FM antenna. Note:
RDS content is determined by each individual FM station.
Placement
Place the Music System Three on a flat, stable surface. For proper bass and ventilation,
do not obstruct the rear bass ports. The Music System Three is not video shielded and
should be kept at minimum of 127 mm away from a computer monitor or television set.
Placement in a bookcase, cabinet, or close to walls or corners may inflate the bass, creat-
ing an unnatural sound.

16 – ENGLISH
Cleaning
Never use any harsh cleansers or solvents on your radio.
Handling your Music System Three
Do not allow water or other liquid or objects to get inside the rear port tubes. The
Music System Three should not be immersed in water or held under running water. It also
should not be exposed to extreme temperatures. The Music System Three is designed to
be portable, but it is not indestructible. Do not drop it, throw it, or subject it to strong
impacts. Always grip the Music System Three using the integrated carry handle to reduce
the chance of it slipping out of your hand.
