NFC (Near Field Communication) is a technology enabling short-range wireless communication between various devices, such as smartphones and IC tags.
Thanks to the NFC function, data communication - for example, BLUETOOTH pairing - can be achieved easily by simply touching NFC-compatible devices together (i.e., at the N-Mark symbol or location designated on each device).
  1. Set the NFC function of the smartphone to on.

    For details, refer to the operating instructions supplied with the smartphone.

    • If your smartphone OS is Android 2.3.3 or later, and less than Android 4.1:

      proceed to step 2.

    • If your smartphone OS is Android 4.1 or later: proceed to step 4.
  2. Download and install the app “NFC Easy Connect” on the smartphone.

    “NFC Easy Connect” is a free Android app you can download from Google Play.

    Download the app by searching for “NFC Easy Connect” or access it by using the following two-dimensional code.

    Fees may be charged for downloading the app.

     

    Access the following Web site:

  4. Touch the speaker with the smartphone.

    Unlock the screen of the smartphone beforehand.

    Keep touching the smartphone on the N-Mark of the speaker until the smartphone responds.

    If the speaker is off, the (BLUETOOTH) indicator begins to flash when the smartphone touches it. When the BLUETOOTH connection is established, the speaker turns on automatically.

    Follow the on-screen instructions to establish the connection.

    When the BLUETOOTH connection is established, (BLUETOOTH) indicator stays lit.

    To disconnect, touch the speaker with the smartphone again.

    • Start the app on the smartphone, and move the smartphone slowly over the N-Mark of the speaker.
    • If the smartphone is in a case, remove the case.
    • Make sure that the app screen is displayed on the smartphone.
  • If you touch a smartphone on the speaker, the smartphone terminates BLUETOOTH connection with any current device (NFC-compatible headset, etc.), and connects with the speaker (One-touch connection switching).

Note

  • If your smartphone is the type that goes into standby mode in response to a magnetic force, it may be unable to be connected by NFC.
