This document describes the ISB2139 Bluetooth Speaker, a portable audio device designed for versatile music playback and hands-free communication. The speaker integrates several input options, allowing users to enjoy audio from various sources, and features intuitive controls for ease of use.

Function Description

The ISB2139 Bluetooth Speaker serves as a multi-functional audio output device. Its primary function is to play audio wirelessly via Bluetooth, making it compatible with smartphones, tablets, and other Bluetooth-enabled devices. Beyond wireless connectivity, the speaker offers playback from physical media through its TF card and USB slots, enabling users to play music directly from memory cards and USB flash drives. An AUX-IN slot provides a wired connection option for devices without Bluetooth capabilities, ensuring broad compatibility.

In addition to music playback, the speaker includes an FM radio function, allowing users to tune into local radio stations. A built-in microphone facilitates hands-free calling when connected to a smartphone via Bluetooth, enhancing its utility beyond just audio entertainment. The device is designed for portability, making it suitable for use in various settings, both indoors and outdoors.

Usage Features

The ISB2139 speaker is equipped with a set of clearly labeled controls that simplify operation. The central control panel features five main buttons:

Previous/V- (1): This button serves a dual purpose. A short press navigates to the previous song during music playback. A long press decreases the volume, providing precise control over the audio output level.
Play/Pause (2): This button manages playback. A single press pauses music, and another press resumes it. In FM radio mode, pressing this button initiates an automatic search for available channels, simplifying the tuning process.
Next/V+ (3): Similar to the previous track button, a short press of this button advances to the next song. A long press increases the volume, allowing users to quickly adjust the audio level to their preference.
Microphone (4): Dedicated to hands-free communication, this microphone enables users to take calls directly through the speaker when it is paired with a smartphone. This feature is particularly useful for conference calls or when a user's hands are occupied.
Power On/Off & Mode Shift (5): This multi-functional button is crucial for the speaker's operation. A long press turns the device on or off. A short press cycles through the available input modes: TF card, USB, AUX-IN, and FM radio. This allows users to seamlessly switch between different audio sources.

The speaker's Bluetooth connection process is straightforward. To connect, users press and hold the Power On/Off & Mode Shift button (5) until the indicator light flashes blue and red alternately, signaling that the speaker is in pairing mode. Users then search for "D11" on their mobile device's Bluetooth settings and select it to establish a connection.

When a TF card or USB flash drive is inserted, the speaker automatically detects the media and begins playing music from it, eliminating the need for manual mode selection in these instances. For wired connections, an AV cable (included in accessories) is used to link the AUX-IN slot on the speaker to the audio output of a mobile phone or other device.

The FM radio function is accessed by pressing the Power On/Off & Mode Shift button (5) until the FM mode is activated. Once in FM mode, pressing the Play/Pause button (2) initiates an automatic scan for radio channels. Users can then adjust the volume using the Previous/V- (1) and Next/V+ (3) buttons.

An LED indicator provides visual feedback on the speaker's status, including charging.

Maintenance Features

The ISB2139 Bluetooth Speaker incorporates features that facilitate its maintenance and ensure its longevity.

Charging: The speaker is equipped with a DC Charge Slot, allowing it to be recharged using a standard power source. During charging, the LED indicator displays a red color, providing a clear visual cue that the device is receiving power. This helps users monitor the charging process and ensures the speaker is ready for use.
Durable Design: While specific material details are not provided, the design suggests a robust construction suitable for portable use. The various slots (TF Card, USB, AUX-IN, DC Charge) are clearly labeled and appear to be integrated securely into the device's housing, minimizing the risk of damage during regular use.
FCC Compliance: The device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules, indicating that it has been tested and found to meet specific standards for electromagnetic interference. This compliance suggests a design that aims to minimize interference with other electronic devices and radio communications, contributing to a more reliable user experience. Users are advised to follow the provided guidelines regarding interference, such as reorienting the receiving antenna or increasing separation between equipment and receiver, if issues arise.
RF Exposure Safety: The device has been evaluated to meet general RF exposure requirements and can be used in portable exposure conditions without restriction. This ensures user safety regarding radio frequency emissions during operation.

Overall, the ISB2139 Bluetooth Speaker is designed to be a user-friendly, versatile, and portable audio solution, offering multiple playback options and hands-free communication capabilities, all while adhering to relevant safety and performance standards.
