8 Operation Pairing a Bluetooth Device 1. Turn on your Bluetooth device. 2. Power on Total PA Glow. 3. Use the Mode button to select Bluetooth mode, which appears as "bt" in the display. Total PA Glow will automatically go into pairing mode to search for Bluetooth devices. You will know you are in pairing mode when the Bluetooth icon is flashing. 4. Navigate to your Bluetooth device’s setup screen, find Total PA Glow, 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. 5. To disconnect pairing, turn off Bluetooth on your device or select Forget this device from your device. Troubleshooting If the sound is distorted: Try lowering the volume control of your sound source or musical instrument. Also, try to reduce the overall volume of Total PA Glow. If there is too much bass: Try adjusting the tone or EQ control from Total PA Glow or your sound source to lower the bass level. This will allow you to play the music louder before clipping (distortion) occurs. If there is a high-pitched whistling noise when using a microphone: This is probably feedback. Point the microphone away from the speaker. If you can’t hear the microphone over the music volume: Turn down the music volume from your source. When I press Previous ( ) or Next ( ), it doesn’t increment to the next FM station: Short presses of the button will jump to presets. Hold the button down to seek to the next station. (If applicable) If the radio station channel is flashing: The unit is currently muted. Unmute to stop the flashing and resume playback. If the Bluetooth logo is flashing rapidly: The unit is currently in pairing mode. If the Bluetooth logo is flashing slowly: A device is paired, but the music is muted. Unmute to stop the flashing and resume playback. The USB track number (Example: 001) is flashing slowly: The USB drive music playback is muted. Unmute to stop the flashing and resume playback. The LCD shows “NONE”: The unit is in USB/SD mode, but there is no USB drive attached or no SD card inserted.
