Receiving a call

You can enjoy a hands-free call with a BLUETOOTH mobile phone that supports the BLUETOOTH profile HFP (Hands-free Profile) or HSP (Headset Profile), via a BLUETOOTH connection.

  • If your BLUETOOTH mobile phone supports both HFP and HSP, set it to HFP.
  • Operations may vary depending on the BLUETOOTH mobile phone. Refer to the operating instructions supplied with your mobile phone.

About ring tone

When an incoming call arrives, a ring tone will be heard via the speaker.

The ring tone varies in the following ways, depending on your BLUETOOTH mobile phone.

  • Ring tone set on the speaker
  • Ring tone set on the BLUETOOTH mobile phone
  • Ring tone set on the BLUETOOTH mobile phone only for a BLUETOOTH connection
  1. Connect the speaker with a BLUETOOTH mobile phone.

    The (BLUETOOTH) indicator lights up in white when the BLUETOOTH connection is established.

  2. Press the (call) button when a call is received.

    Talk into the microphone of the speaker.

    When an incoming call arrives, playback pauses and a ring tone is heard from the speaker.

    If no ring tone is heard via the speaker
    • The speaker may not connect with a BLUETOOTH mobile phone with HFP or HSP. Check the connection status on the BLUETOOTH mobile phone.
    • Switch the call device to the speaker by pressing and holding the (call) button for about 2 seconds.
  3. Tap the VOL (volume) -/+ buttons to adjust the volume.

    When you tap the VOL (volume) -/+ buttons, the (power) indicator flashes once in green.

    When you tap the VOL (volume) –/+ buttons at the lowest or highest level, the (power) indicator flashes three times in green.

  4. To end a call, press the (call) button.

    If you were listening to music when the call arrived, playback will be resumed when the call ends.

Hint

  • Some BLUETOOTH mobile phones have handset use priority when receiving a call. In the case of the HFP or HSP connection, talk on the speaker by pressing and holding the (call) button for about 2 seconds, or by using your BLUETOOTH mobile phone.
  • If you adjust the volume on the speaker when not talking, the playback volume is adjusted.
  • If the caller cannot hear or can barely hear your voice, talk more directly into the microphone of the speaker.
  • During a call, tap the VOL (volume) -/+ buttons on the speaker to adjust the volume. In the speaker, the volume of music playback and calling is set independently.

Note

  • The sound is output from the left speaker only during a call. 
  • Depending on the BLUETOOTH mobile phone, playback may not pause when an incoming call arrives.
  • Use a BLUETOOTH mobile phone at least 50 cm from the speaker. Noise may result if the speaker and the BLUETOOTH mobile phone are too close.
