A secure connection between the SoundGate 3 and mobile telephone must be established prior

to Bluetooth® streaming. Ensure the SoundGate 3 and mobile telephone are positioned within one meter

(3 feet) of each other, and follow the steps below to pair the devices.

1. Prepare the mobile telephone for Bluetooth®pairing

As this process may vary from one mobile telephone to the next, refer to the instruction manual for

the mobile telephone when available. If the manual is not readily available, Bluetooth® settings can

typically be found under the mobile telephone’s “Settings” menu.

Here is an example, using an iPhone 5 mobile telephone:

· Press the “Settings” icon on the home screen

· Press “Bluetooth®”

· If Bluetooth® function is turned OFF, swipe your nger across the touch screen from left toright to

turn the function ON

The mobile telephone is now prepared to search for other active Bluetooth® devices within range.

2. Prepare the SoundGate 3 for Bluetooth®pairing

· Press and hold the SoundGate 3 Power key for 5-6 seconds

· The LED indication will begin ashing rapidly blue. This indicates that the SoundGate 3

is in pairing mode. Pairing mode will be active for two minutes.

3. Activate pairing

· Once both devices are in active pairing mode, the Bluetooth® mobile telephone will locate

the SoundGate 3, and the name “SoundGate 3” will appear in the mobile phone display

· Select “SoundGate 3”

· When prompted to enter a pin code by the mobile telephone, enter “0000” (four zeros)

and press “OK”. The phone will now complete pairing and connect the two devices.
