Full amount due before shipping. It is our dream someday to be able to stock pile an unlimited supply of
these radio's, but this is just not the case, sorry for the inconvenience, due to the incredible demand,
construction time of your radio, may vary due to limited component availability, there are so many hours
in a day, and we are working as fast as we can to fill the orders that are coming in, these are hand built
by craftsmen here in the USA! Thanks for the wonderful response to the addition of the extremely
popular Bluetooth feature, and the incredible volume through our website sales, we are now backlogged
about 12 weeks, so please allow and plan for this situation, and please,.. no car show deadlines!
I have had enough heart attacks this last season! The only way to get one is to order one right here and wait!
If you are impatient or in a hurry,.. or have to know details and receive "updates", ask for
"promises", etc. that just are impossible to produce, please don't buy from us, the stress is killing me.
Antique Automobile Radio Inc. in Florida does not provide "accurate predictions", because the
subcontractors who make all of the unique and individual parts that go into these radios are also
doing the best that they can to keep up.. US Customs is also a point of bottleneck to slow down
the transportation of these very special parts as well. The factory only lets us know and
informs us "when" they can complete a build within the next week... they make 96 very unique
and different models of radios,.. nobody else does this. They build the best radios and are simply
overwhelmed with orders.
The Bluetooth feature is hidden under normal circumstances. The radio will play and pushbuttons will function just like all of our other radios. The
microphone is internal and there are no external indications that would detract from the original look of the radio. All Bluetooth functions are accessed
through the pushbuttons when in the Auxiliary mode. You can still connect other devices through the AUX jack on the back of the radio, but when
Bluetooth is active it will have priority. Our radios work well with all major phone brands currently on the market. There are some differences
in terminology between phones and other Bluetooth devices, so what follows is a generic explanation of how to operate your radio. The term
Phone
when used here applies to any Bluetooth device including Tablets, etc.
Be safe! Entertainment electronics can be distracting. Make sure the following procedures are done before you leave your driveway.
In order to connect to your Bluetooth phone, you must first
pair
your phone with the radio. Typically, you should only need to do this the first
time you use your phone with this radio. Your radio will remember the last 4 Bluetooth devices that have been paired with it. To pair, first go
to the Bluetooth screen on your phone, tablet or similar device. Start a search for devices Turn the radio on and wait for the screen on your
phone to show
AARInc. BTDBvx.x
(where
x.x
is the current firmware version). Select it. The phone will show that it is paired.
Note:
If no other Bluetooth devices are connected when the radio is initially turned on, the radio will enter pairing mode automatically. If the
radio doesn't detect a nearby Bluetooth device after about 30 seconds it will exit the pairing mode. This will happen no matter what mode the
radio is in (AM, FM or Aux mode). If your phone is already paired, the radio will attempt to connect with it automatically. If your phone becomes
disconnected for any reason (i.e. you get out of the car with the phone) you can reconnect by turning the radio off/on again, or by pressing
the center pushbutton on the radio, or by connecting thru the phone's Bluetooth menu.
This illustration shows all of the Bluetooth connected features currently available:
To access these features you must put your radio in the Auxiliary Mode See the instructions that came with your radio for how to enter Aux. Mode.
If you are not paired with the device you want to use, search for Bluetooth devices with your phone, and press and hold the center button. Your phone
should enter pairing mode and pair. If you are paired but not connected, just press and release the center button to connect. Your radio will make an
audible acknowledgment that it is now connected. The AM/FM/Stereo indicator will be blue when Bluetooth devices are connected. Your radio is
operating much like a wireless headset. You can stream music and/or make and answer calls without taking your eyes off the road.
You should set your volume on the radio to the level you prefer, then turn on your phone and adjust the phone volume to match the radio level.
This avoids getting blasted when switching between audio sources.
PHONE CONTROL
Once paired and connected, the radio will monitor your phone for incoming calls. If it detects an incoming call, the radio will ring through the speakers
and switch to Bluetooth mode if you are listening to the radio programming. You may chose to ignore the phone call by pressing the
REJECT CALL
button, in which case the call will be diverted to voice mail and the radio will resume playing where it left off, or you may
ANSWER
by pressing the
middle button. If another call comes in while you are already on the phone, you may place the first caller on hold by pressing the
HOLD/RELEASE
button, or you may reject the 2nd caller. Press and hold the middle button to
HANG UP
or end the call. The radio will acknowledge each condition
with an audible tone. If you were not in Bluetooth mode when the call came in, the radio will return to its previous state.
While a call is in progress, you may adjust the volume for the incoming call to make it easier to hear the caller. Press the
VOL>
or
buttons to raise or
lower the caller's volume. When the call is ended, the volume will return to the default media level.
To place a call to someone in your phonebook
(note: not all phones support this feature),
you must be connected and in Bluetooth mode. Press and
hold the
VOICE COMMAND
button. When you hear the acknowledge tone, say
"Call Home"
(or any name that is in your phonebook.) The phone will
attempt to place a call to that number.
MUSIC CONTROL
To play music, start your playlist from your phone (NOT while driving!). You may pause or play the selection at any time by pressing the center button.
Navigate the playlist by using the
PREV
. and
NEXT
buttons. The
EQ
button on the right allows you to adjust the sound of your music with EQUALIZER
settings. Each time you press and hold the
EQ
button the color of the indicator LED will change briefly. The color indicates the new setting according to
the table below. Your setting is saved and will be used each time you play your music. Each time you
PAUSE
, and then
PLAY
your music the LED will
briefly display the color of your current equalizer setting.
