Before you begin:
For your safety, the PAL BT is shipped from the factory with discharged batteries. However, it
is normal if the PAL BT plays straight out of the box. With the unit off, connect the power supply
to the PAL BT and plug it into a wall outlet to charge the batteries. (See “Fast Charge Mode”).
Like many rechargeable devices, there may be a delay before the LED starts to blink when
the PAL BT is brand new and first plugged in, or when left unused for several weeks. This
is a feature of the Power Management System designed to protect the batteries from
damage. Should you experience this, you may “jump start” the “Fast Charge Mode” by
playing the PAL BT (while plugged in) for approximately 2-3 hours and then turning it off
(but still plugged in). The green LED should begin to flash at that time indicating Fast Charge
Mode is active. In order to complete the charge cycle, leave the PAL BT plugged in for an
additional 4-5 hours even if the LED has stopped blinking.
Bear in mind it may take up to 4 charge/discharge cycles before the batteries are operating
at full capacity when the PAL BT is new or has been unused for several weeks.
Leaving the PAL BT plugged in even when not in use ensures the batteries will be charged
when you need it. If the PAL BT is not plugged in, the batteries will gradually self-discharge
as a safety measure. There is also no harm in playing the PAL BT continuously while
plugged in.
Jump Start
In the event there is no power from the battery after giving it a full charge, the battery may
have self-discharged. In this case, try this simple procedure:
1. Play the PAL BT at moderate volume for 3 hours while connected to the external adapter.
2. After 3 hours, switch the PAL BT off. The green power LED should begin to flash
indicating the battery is charging.
3. When the LED stops flashing, keep the PAL BT switched off but leave it plugged into
the external adapter for an additional 4-5 hours to complete the charging process.

streaming from).
2. Turn on the Bluetooth wireless technology on your enabled device.
3. Select “Tivoli Bluetooth (Not Paired)” when it appears on your device’s screen to initiate
searching. Some devices may prompt you for a PIN. If so, enter “0000”. “Tivoli Blue-
tooth” will change from “Not Paired” to “Connected”.
4. You will hear a ring tone from the PAL BT 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 PAL BT, but please give
your device adequate time to Pair or Connect before repeating the process.
Pairing a Bluetooth®wireless technology enabled iPhone/iPod touch/iPad:
1. Turn the PAL BT to the “BT” position. 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”.
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 PAL BT 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 PAL BT, 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.
• The PAL BT will remember pairing information for up to 8 devices. Additional 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 PAL
BT, 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 the PAL BT’s
volume level.

10 – ENGLISH
About the battery pack:
The PAL BT uses a sealed pack of 6 high capacity Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) cells. Unlike
Nickel Cadmium (NiCd) batteries, NiMH batteries have no memory effect, provide a longer
operating time, and do not use toxic metals. The front panel green LED serves both as a
power indicator and battery power and charge status indicator thanks to the PAL BT’s
innovative Power Management System.
Fast Charge Mode:
With the PAL BT turned Off but plugged in, from full discharge, the batteries will be com-
pletely charged within approximately 3.5 hours. During this period, the green LED will blink
with a long off/short on cycle. The LED will turn off when the batteries are fully charged.
Once the PAL BT has been fully charged using the Fast Charge Mode, do not unplug it
and then immediately plug it back in again, as this will restart the Fast Charge Mode even
though the batteries are fully charged. Doing this repeatedly will damage the batteries.
See also “Before You Begin”.
Trickle Charge Mode:
With the PAL BT On and plugged in, the batteries will be completely charged in approxi-
mately 24 hours. During this period, the LED will remain On continuously.
Low Battery:
With the PAL BT turned On but not plugged in, as the batteries become discharged, the
Power Management System will cause the green power indicator LED to blink with a short
off/long on cycle, indicating the batteries are in need of being recharged. The blinking will
grow faster as the batteries get closer to discharge until the PAL BT shuts itself off to protect
the batteries. The remaining playback time from the moment the blinking begins until the
PAL BT shuts off is estimated between 20 minutes and several hours. It is difficult to be
more precise due to many factors including how long and how loud the radio is played, and
the remaining charge left in the batteries. For instance, the PAL BT will likely play longer off
of the batteries at a low volume than at higher volume levels. As you use your PAL BT, you
will develop a better idea of how much playback time you have before recharging is neces-
sary.You may also notice reduced battery playback time with PAL BT when using Bluetooth
Wireless Technology. Using the Bluetooth wireless technology when on battery-only power
will reduce the average playback time experienced with just radio listening.
If the PAL BT is turned on to FM or AM and the power indicator is off, then the batteries
require recharging. However, it is normal for the radio to play for a brief period if turned on
after the LED has gone out.
If the PAL BT is to be used away from an AC or other power source for an extended period
of time, it is wise to “top-off” the charge before use, especially if the LED is blinking.
To do this, follow the procedure described under “Fast Charge Mode”.
Note that the power indicator LED will blink with a different cycle during Fast Charge Mode
while the batteries are charging. Because the PAL BT’s NiMH batteries have no memory,
it is not necessary to wait until the batteries are exhausted before recharging, although
recharging from complete discharge will also do no harm.
Leaving he PAL BT plugged in, even when not in use, ensures the batteries will be charged
when you need them. If the PAL BT is not plugged in, the batteries will self-discharge as a
safety measure. There is no harm in continuously operating the PAL BT with the power supply.

11 – ENGLISH
Note: It may take up to 4 charge/discharge cycles before the batteries are operating
at full capacity when new or left unused for several weeks.
Replacing the battery pack:
When it comes time to replace the battery pack, lift the FM antenna up, remove the two
screws that hold the battery cover in place with a small Philips-head screwdriver. Lift the
battery cover off, disconnect the lead from the battery pack and replace the batteries,
making sure to correctly connect the leads. Replace the battery cover by inserting the
bottom lip first, then screwing the cover back on. Replacement battery packs may be
purchased from your authorized dealer/distributor or Tivoli Audio.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of fire or personal injury, use an exact replacement
battery pack, available through Tivoli Audio or its authorized dealers, and dispose
of the spent battery pack according to your state/country’s regulations.
Handling the PAL BT:
• The PAL BT is weather resistant, but it is not weather proof. It should not be
immersed in water or held under running water. It also should not be exposed to
extreme temperatures.
• The PAL BT is designed to be portable, but it is not indestructible. Do not drop it or
subject it to strong impacts.
• Always grip the PAL BT using the side indentations.
• The PAL BT’s non-slip, weather resistant paint is durable, but it is
not impervious to scratches.
• The PAL BT’s speaker is magnetically shielded, permitting use near
a computer monitor or a television set.
• It is normal for the power supply to become warm during use.
Cleaning:
To clean the PAL BT, use only a soft cloth and do not rub hard. Use a very mild cleaner
only when necessary. If something is spilled on the cabinet, wash it off as soon as possible
to prevent possible damage. Normal every day wear and tear, or damage resulting from
cleaning or chemicals, is not covered under the factory warranty.
Headphones:
Avoid using headphones (not included) at high volume levels to prevent possible hearing
damage. Do not wear headphones while operating a motor vehicle.

Voordat u begint:
Voor uw eigen veiligheid is de PAL BT het verlaten van de fabriek met ontladen accu's. Het
is echter normaal dat het PAL-BT speelt recht uit de doos. Met het toestel uit, sluit de
voeding aan op de PAL BT en steek de stekker in een stopcontact om de batterijen op te
laden. (Zie "Fast Charge Mode").

Net als veel andere oplaadbare apparaten, kan er een vertraging voordat de LED begint
te knipperen wanneer de PAL-BT is gloednieuw en eerst wordt aangesloten, of wanneer

loten) voor ongeveer 2-3 uur en deze uit te zetten (maar nog steeds aangesloten). De groene

capaciteit als de PAL-BT nieuw is of niet is gebruikt voor enkele weken.

batterijen worden opgeladen wanneer u het nodig hebt. Als de PAL BT niet is aangesloten,
de accu's zal geleidelijk aan zelf-ontlading als een veiligheidsmaatregel. Er is ook geen
kwaad in het spelen van de PAL-BT continu wanneer aangesloten inch.

externe adapter.

knipperen met vermelding van de batterij wordt opgeladen.
