Power your radio

AC operation

Before you plug the AC cord into the radio, be sure the AC voltage is correct. Insert the plug on the end of the supplied power cord into the AC power socket on the back of the radio.

DC operation

For outdoor use, you can power the radio by using a 12V DC input socket from a DC power supply (not included) (example, from the power supply of vehicles or boats). An AC power adaptor with 1 Ampere and center positive in polarity can also power the radio in house.

Operating your radio FM / AM

1. The radio comes with a built-in AM / FM antenna. To improve AM reception, rotate your radio for best reception. To improve FM reception, insert the end of the supplied FM wire antenna into the F-type antenna terminal and adjust the wire for best reception. A 75ohm coaxial cable to an outdoor antenna may also be attached to the terminal. Be sure to switch external / internal antenna switch to external position while using the supplied wire antenna or connected to an outdoor antenna. In some European countries, you may have to connect the supplied antenna terminal adaptor (EU Version Only) to connect with an outdoor antenna.
2. Turn on your radio by rotating the Power knob to the FM / AM position.
3. Rotate the Tuning Control knob to select the desired station. The Tuning LED indicator will appear brightest when the best tuning has been achieved.
4. Adjust the Volume Control knob for comfortable listening.
5. To switch off the radio, turn the Power knob to the OFF position.

Listening to Bluetooth music

You need to pair your Bluetooth device with your radio before you can auto-link to play / stream Bluetooth music through your WR-11BT+. Paring creates a 'bond' so two devices can recognize each other.

Pairing your Bluetooth device for the first time

1. Rotate the Band selecting knob to select the Bluetooth function. The Bluetooth icon on the panel will flash blue.
2. Activate Bluetooth on your device according to the device's user manual to link to your WR-11BT+. Some smartphones that are equipped with earlier Bluetooth versions older than BT2.1 may need to input the pass code "0000".
3. Once connected, there will be a beep sound and the Bluetooth icon will remain illuminated blue. You can now play the music from your Bluetooth-enabled device to the WR-11BT+.

NOTE:

• If there are 2 Bluetooth devices searching for WR-11BT+, it will show its availability on both devices. However, if one device links with the WR-11BT+ first, then the other Bluetooth device won't find the WR-11BT+ on its list.
• If you take your source device out of range, the connection will be temporarily disconnected to your radio. Your radio will automatically reconnect if the source device is brought back in range within 3 minutes. Otherwise you need to manually reconnect your device again to the radio. Be aware that during the period of disconnection, no other Bluetooth device can pair or link with your radio.
• If 'SANGEAN WR-11BT+' shows in your Bluetooth device list but your device cannot connect with it, please delete the Sangean WR-11BT+ item from your list and pair the device with the WR-11BT+ again following the steps described previously.
• The effective operation range between the WR-11BT+ and your paired device is approximately 10 meters (30 feet). Any obstacle between the system and the device can reduce the operational range.
• Bluetooth / NFC connectivity performance may vary depending on the connected Bluetooth devices. Please refer to the Bluetooth capabilities of your device before connecting to your radio. All features may not be supported on some paired Bluetooth devices.
• With some mobile phones, making / receiving calls, text messages, e-mails or any other activities unrelated to audio streaming may mute the Bluetooth audio streaming or even temporarily disconnect from your device. Such behavior is a function of the connected device and does not indicate a fault with your radio.

Playing a previously-paired Bluetooth source device

The WR-11BT+ can memorize up to 2 paired Bluetooth source devices, when the memory exceeds this amount, the earliest paring device will be over written from the device.
If your Bluetooth source device was already paired with the WR-11BT+ previously, the unit will memorize your Bluetooth source device and will attempt to reconnect with a Bluetooth source device in the memory that was last connected. If the last connected Bluetooth source device is not available, the WR-11BT+ will try to connect to the second last Bluetooth source device.

Disconnecting your Bluetooth device

Rotate the Band selecting knob to any other band or off position or disconnect the Bluetoothenabled device. The LED light for Bluetooth icon will then start to flash indicating deactivation of Bluetooth.

Pairing and playing your device via NFC

The WR-11BT+ is equipped with wireless NFC (Near Field Communication) feature which allows NFC-enabled devices to pair and play music to the WR-11BT+. For non-NFC devices, please refer to the above section for standard Bluetooth pairing.

1. Rotate the Band selecting knob to the Bluetooth setting. The Bluetooth icon on the panel will flash blue.
2. Turn on your NFC feature on your device.
3. Touch the NFC area of your playing device against the NFC area of the radio. The WR-11BT+ will automatically pair your device. If you are pairing with the WR-11BT+ for the first time, your NFC-enabled device will be asked for the permission to link with the WR-11BT+. Once paired with a device, there will be a beep sound and the Bluetooth icon will remain illuminated blue.
4. Use the controls on your device to play / pause and navigate tracks.

NOTE:

• If you would like to link another Bluetooth device via NFC, disconnect the existing linked Bluetooth device first.
• The location of the NFC detection area is not the same on all devices. When connecting with other Bluetooth device via NFC, refer to the User guide of the your device for more information.
• Some metallic cases or covers for mobile phones may reduce the sensitivity of NFC. Make sure you remove it, before activating the NFC.

Disconnecting your NFC-enabled device

To disconnect your device, simply touch it again on the top of the unit. The LED light for Bluetooth icon will then start to flash blue indicating deactivation of Bluetooth.

Headphone use

Headphone use with this radio should be fitted with a 3.5mm connector. Insert the headphones connector into the socket marked on the back side of the radio. When the headphones are plugged in, the loudspeaker is automatically disconnected.

AUX IN socket

A 3.5mm Auxiliary Input socket is provided on the back of your radio to permit an audio signal to be fed into the unit from an external audio device such as iPod, MP3 or CD player.

1. Rotate the Band selecting knob to select "AUX".
2. Connect an external audio source (for example, iPod, MP3 or CD player) to the Auxiliary Input socket.
3. Adjust the volume setting on your iPod, MP3 or CD player to ensure an adequate signal level from the player, and then rotate the Volume control knob on the radio as needed for comfortable listening.

REC Out socket

The radio can be used as a separate tuner by connecting this output to a stereo receiver or pre-amplifier or you can use this output to make recordings in mono from audio programs.

Charging with USB socket

Your radio has a USB socket which is intended for charging an iPhone, smart phone or similar devices. Charge time may vary and in some cases may take longer to charge than when using the manufacturers charging unit supplied with the smart phone. Because of interference the WR-11BT+ can only charge your iPhone, Smart phone or similar device when the radio is off.

• The USB jack can only provide power to USB devices with a 1A 5V maximum input. It does not support external Hard disk drives, and some mobile phones or electronic devices.
• The charger may not supply power to some USB devices.
• Do not connect a power source to the USB port. Otherwise there is a risk of fire. The USB port is only intended for charging lower voltage devices.
• Do not insert a nail, wire, etc. into USB power supply port. Otherwise a short circuit may cause smoke or fire.
• Do not connect this USB socket with your PC USB port, as it is highly possible that it may cause breakdown of both units.
• Never use the USB socket in rainy or moist conditions to prevent moisture from entering the radio.
