About the FM transmitter
The availability of the FM transmitter may vary by
country. At the time of writing, the FM transmitter may
be used in the following European countries:
and United Kingdom. For the latest information, and

With the FM transmitter, you can play songs in your
device through any compatible FM receiver, such as a
car radio or a home stereo system.
The operating distance of the FM transmitter is up to a
maximum of 2 metres (6.5 feet). The transmission may
be subject to interference due to obstructions, such as
walls, other electronic devices, or from public radio
stations. The FM transmitter may cause interference to
nearby FM receivers operating on the same frequency.
To avoid interference, always search for a free FM
frequency on the receiver before using the FM
transmitter.
The FM transmitter cannot be used at the same time as
the FM radio of your device.
The operating frequency range of the transmitter is
from 88.1 to 107.9 MHz.
When the transmitter is on and transmitting sound,

is on, but not transmitting anything, is displayed
and a periodic tone sounds. If the transmitter is not
transmitting anything for several minutes, it switches
off automatically.
