Bluetooth one touch connection via NFC
About NFC technology
■
Near Field Communication (NFC) is a set of standards for
devices (smartphones/tablets) to establish radio communi-
cation with each other by touching/tapping them together
or bringing them into close proximity.
Using NFC in this product simplifies the pairing method of
Bluetooth connectivity.
This audio system supports NFC-enabled device with
Android 4.1, Jelly Bean and higher.
For device with a lower Android version, refer the
operation manual of the device for recommended app
(application).
●
●
Unlike other wireless technology, NFC requires no
discovery or pairing.
Simply tap the source device to the NFC tag to instantly
enjoy seamless connectivity between your smart device
and the audio system.
NFC detection area
■
NFC detection area location may vary depending on the
device (smartphone/tablet). Refer operation manual of the
device for detail.

Caution:
Caution:
Make sure that the NFC tag is placed on a flat and
level surface.
If you choose not to use the velcro tape, do not
place the NFC tag near metal surface to avoid
connection interference during tagging.
Important:
NFC tag has unique ID for each individual set, SHARP
provides 2 identical tags for your convenience.
SHARP will not be held liable for the damages caused
by rewriting the tags.
Keep all small parts away from children as they may
be accidentally swallowed.
Peel the separator off the velcro tape (loop type) and
stick it on a desired surface.

Notes:
If a device such as microwave oven, wireless LAN card,
Bluetooth device or any other device that uses the same
2.4 GHz frequency near the system some sound interrup-
tion may be heard.
The transmission distance of the wireless signal between
the device and the main unit is about 10 m (30 feet), but
may vary depending on your operating environment. If a
steel concrete or metallic wall is between the device and
the main unit, the system may not operate at all, because
the wireless signal cannot penetrate metal.
If this unit or the source device is turned off before Blue-
tooth connection is completed, pairing will not be com-
pleted and the pairing information will not be memorised.
Repeat step 1 onwards to start pairing again.
To pair with other devices, repeat steps 1 - 5 for each de-
vice. This unit can be paired to a maximum of 8 devices.
If subsequent device is paired, the oldest device paired,
will be deleted and replaced with the new one.
Once a device is ousted or deleted from the pairing list,
the pairing information for the device is also deleted. To
listen to the sound from the device again, it needs to be
re-paired. Perform steps 1 - 5 to pair the device again.
