■ 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

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.
