from the speaker will alert you of the device's status: Bluetooth Pairing, Bluetooth Connected,
or Bluetooth Disconnected. *
4. Navigate to your Bluetooth device's setup screen, find Total PA Ultra, and connect. The
Bluetooth icon will remain solidly lit.
Note: Users should consider updating their device's OS if experiencing trouble with pairing or
playing music.

device.
* If you would like to disable (or enable) the voice prompts, press and hold the Play/Pause button on
the Media Panel.
Note: Bluetooth must be selected as the audio source in order to disable (or enable) the voice
prompts.
Pairing a Bluetooth Device Using NFC
NFC (near-field communication) allows data exchange from devices, such as pairing, by gently
bumping them together. Check in your device's manual to see if this feature is supported.

3. Power on Total PA Ultra.
4. Touch and briefly hold your device to the NFC logo located on Total PA Ultra's rear panel.
5. Follow the pairing instructions that appear on your phone. If a passcode is required, enter
"0000".
6. To unpair, gently bump your device against the NFC logo.
