5. Bluetooth feature with audio control 

 

 
The X1slim is equipped with Bluetooth transmitter that allows you to pair up to 2 Bluetooth devices 
simultaneously.    It must be understood that NOT just ANY 2 Bluetooth devices will always work. When 
pairing two devices, Bluetooth only permits 1 hands free device and 1 audio device.    You cannot pair 2 
audio devices and you cannot pair 2 hands free devices.    It will only allow 1 of each kind.    An example of a 
hands free device is a cell phone.    An example of an audio device is an iPOD/MP3 player with a Bluetooth 
adapter.    Please note some Smart phone’s (iPHONE/Android phones) take up BOTH devices when paired 
to the X1slim.    This is why you will be able to listen to music and answer the phone from a smart phone.   
These phones do not have an option to disable this.    Some motorcycle specific GPS devices also take up 
both devices when paired.    This is why you can listen to music, hear your voice prompted directions, and 
answer your phone through them. 
 
* You will find a chart below that explains the different combinations of accessories and what will work. 
 

Bluetooth feature: 

The Bluetooth feature will allow you to listen to the music, GPS direction, and/or 

answer phone calls wirelessly. 
 

Pairing:

 

In order to pair the X1 slim to a Bluetooth device you must follow the directions below. Please 

make sure that the device you are trying to pair is Bluetooth capable.   
 

Make sure the X1 slim is in the OFF position and the device you want to pair is near.    Please 
note that you must make sure any other Bluetooth devices in the area are turned off. 

Press and hold the Intercom button 

  and slowly turn the Power knob on. You will see “Bt rd” 

letter in LCD display.   

Continue to hold the Intercom button until you see the Bluetooth LED 

 rapidly blinking.  

Release the Intercom button at this time. 

Follow the “pairing” instructions for your Bluetooth device.    Please allow about 30 seconds for 
your device to search X1slim. If done correctly, you will notice the name “

X1SLIM

” on your 

devices Bluetooth list.     
 
The following is an example of how to pair an iphone with the X1slim.    Go to Bluetooth settings 
as pictured below.    Once the iphone finds the X1slim as a Bluetooth device, you will see “X1slim 
Not Paired”. You simply touch that device then it will automatically pair.
