Bluetooth
The Mondo Elite Classic can work as a Bluetooth speaker. When you power the Mondo Elite
Classic on for the first time the Mondo Elite Classic will automatically be available to connect. If
it is not showing up on your smartphone, go into the Mondo Elite Classic main ‘Radio Settings’
menu, select Bluetooth. If the menu item
Bluetooth Pairing Mode
is displayed on the radio, then
you should see it on your smart device. Once you select the Mondo Elite Classic in your smart
device the radio will now show the name of the smartphone / tablet that it is paired too.
Now on your smart device simply press play on the music that you want to stream via
Bluetooth and the music will start playing on the Mondo Elite Classic. After your initial set up,
the next time you want to play Bluetooth you will have to select the device from the Mondo
Elite Classic menu.
For example, if you are playing Bluetooth music from your smartphone and you then later
press the preset 1 on the Mondo Elite Classic to play your previously saved radio station. To
play Bluetooth music again you will have to select your device from the Mondo Elite Classic
Bluetooth menu. After you select your device you will be shown 3 options:
Play:
If you want to play the music.
Disconnect:
If you want to stop playing music but keep the smartphone device in the
Mondo Elite Classic memory. By doing this, it will release your smartphone from playing
music but if you later press play on the Mondo Elite Classic, assuming your device is
still in range, pressing play on the Mondo Elite Classic will start playing music from your
device again.
Unpair:
Will disconnect the Mondo Elite Classic and place the Mondo Elite Classic into
pairing mode to be paired to another phone.
NOTE:
If you unpair your smart device and then want to pair back to the Mondo Elite Classic again, depending on
the smart device you may have to delete the Mondo Elite Classic name out of your device’s Bluetooth list, or turn
Bluetooth on and off on your smart device. Then the Mondo Elite Classic will display again and you can repair,
connect, and start playing.
Bluetooth Transmission to a Bluetooth Headphone:
The Mondo Elite Classic can also play music through Bluetooth enabled
headphones / earbuds.
