Bluetooth

The Encore+ can work as a Bluetooth speaker. When you power the Encore+ on for the rst

time the Encore+ will automatically be available to connect. If it is not showing up on your

smartphone, go into the Encore+ 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 Encore+ 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 Encore+. After your initial set up, the next

time you want to play Bluetooth you will have to select the device from the Encore+ menu.

For example, if you are playing Bluetooth music from your smartphone and you then later

press the preset 1 on the Encore+ to play your previously saved radio station. To play

Bluetooth music again you will have to select your device from the Encore+ 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

Encore+ memory. By doing this, it will release your smartphone from playing music but if

you later press play on the Encore+, assuming your device is still in range, pressing play on

the Encore+ will start playing music from your device again.

Unpair: Will disconnect the Encore+ and place the Encore+ into pairing mode to be

paired to another phone.

NOTE: If you unpair your smart device and then want to pair back to the Encore+ again, depending on the smart

device you may have to delete the Encore+ name out of your device’s Bluetooth list, or turn Bluetooth on and

off on your smart device. Then the Encore+ will display again and you can repair, connect, and start playing.
