Bowers & Wilkins Formation Wedge Mode D'emploi page 2

Welcome to Bowers & Wilkins and Formation Wedge.
Thank you for choosing Formation. When John Bowers first established Bowers
& Wilkins he did so in the belief that imaginative design, innovative engineering
and advanced technology were keys that could unlock the enjoyment of audio
in the home. That belief continues to inspire every product we design and in
Formation has found its most advanced expression yet.
Formation Wedge is a network connected, wireless active speaker that provides
extremely high performance reproduction of Formation audio streams. Formation
Wedge is primarily intended to be configured and controlled using the Bowers
& Wilkins Home app. The app is available for both iOS and Android devices.
Some commonly used control functions are also available via touch buttons
on the Formation Wedge top panel. It is only possible to install and configure a
Formation Wedge using the Bowers & Wilkins Home app.
Formation Wedge will enable you to:
• Listen to audio from streaming services like Spotify, Apple Music, and Roon.
• Listen to network stored audio files.
• Listen to audio over Bluetooth from appropriately enabled Bluetooth
source devices.
• Listen to audio from devices such as turntables (via a phono preamp) and
CD players that are connected to a Bowers & Wilkins Formation Audio.
• Listen to audio, such as Internet Radio, from Airplay or Bluetooth compatible
services and apps.
• Listen to audio playing anywhere in your home on any Formation device
connected to your home network.
The Bowers & Wilkins Home app is required to connect your Formation Wedge
to your home network and also to establish connection with other Formation
products in your home. The Bowers & Wilkins Home app also provides some
control and configuration functions during use. Before you begin your Formation
Wedge installation please download and install the Bowers & Wilkins Home app
on your iOS or Android device. The Bowers & Wilkins Home app requires iOS
V11.4 or later, or Android V8.1 or later. Bluetooth, and WiFi services must be
enabled on your iOS or Android device. You will also need to know your WiFi
network password.
Note: Location Services must be enabled on Android devices during the
Formation setup process. This is because Formation products use a low power
form of Bluetooth (BT-LE) for service communication which on Android devices is
only switched on when Location Services are enabled. Bowers & Wilkins do not
use any location services data for marketing purposes.
