How to use

Place the MS16BT on a stable surface and connect it to mains power. Use the LED display and remote control to select the source: press Bluetooth to pair a smartphone or laptop, insert a CD to play audio or connect a USB flash drive (max 32 GB). For radio listening, switch to FM and use automatic or manual tuning to find stations, then save them to the memory. Adjust sound with the equalizer presets, or fine‑tune bass and treble manually; enable LOUDNESS when listening at low volume for fuller sound. Set the clock and alarm via the display menu to wake to radio, CD/USB playback or a buzzer.

Recommendations

To ensure reliable USB playback, format drives to FAT32 and avoid multi‑partition flash drives; keep firmware/firmware‑related updates and CDs clean to prevent read errors. For best sound placement, position the unit where the exposed speakers are unobstructed and allow a few centimetres of clearance around the housing for ventilation.
