Voice message feedback

Follow the below steps to enable the voice message 
when performing tasks.

1. 

Enter STANDBY mode if not already.

2. 

Press and hold the   PLAY/PAUSE button on the 
remote for 5 seconds.

3. 

Repeat the same process to disable the voice 
message when enabled.

Pairing a bluetooth device

Before you can use the sound bar with your phone or 
other bluetooth capable device you will need to pair 
the device to the sound bar.

1. 

Press the SOURCE button on the main unit (3) or 
remote repeatedly until you see the blue LED.

2. 

When selected the status LED will flash while the 
unit tries to connect to previously paired devices. 
If no devices are found the status LED will remain 
flashing to indicate it is ready for pairing a new 
device.

3. 

Enable the Bluetooth function on your audio 
device and search for a device labelled ‘BUSH Q5S’ 
in the available list.

4. 

Select and enable pairing for the ‘BUSH Q5S’ 
device. If prompted for a password enter ‘0000’.

5. 

If pairing is successful the sound bar will beep and 
the STATUS LED will stop flashing.

6. 

If the connected device goes out of range, the 
sound bar will attempt to connect for 2 minutes. 
When the device comes into range the sound bar 
will reconnect again automatically.

7. 

To remove a paired device using only the sound 
bar, press and hold the PLAY/PAUSE button on the 
remote control for 5 seconds. The STATUS LED 
will begin flashing once more.

Controlling a paired device

Once connected you can either use the controls on 
the audio device to begin playback, skip tracks etc.  
Or you can use the control buttons on the sound bar & 
remote.

1. 

The   PLAY/PAUSE button on the remote when 
pressed will begin playback of the selected 
track on the audio device. Press again to pause 
playback.

2. 

To skip to the next track press the SKIP 

 button 

on the remote.

3. 

To skip to the previous track press the SKIP 

 

button on the remote.

4. 

Any further operations must be done from the 
audio device.

The volume output is effected by the volume level 
on the audio source EG: Phone or laptop, so make 
sure that is set to about 70-80% ( not too loud to 
avoid distortion).

Bluetooth notes

•  The operation range of bluetooth is approximately 

10 meters (30 Feet). Any obstacles in the path 
between devices may reduce this range.

•  Only one Bluetooth device can be paired at a time.

•  Not all Bluetooth devices are compatible.
