ENGLISH

The setup process in the Bowers & Wilkins Music 
App will ask you to name the ‘Space’ in which your 
Panorama 3 is to be used. A list of suggested space 
names is provided but you can also create your 
own. When you have selected or created a space 
name, the app will ask you to press the Multifunction 
button on the top of your Panorama 3 to confirm the 
selection.

If a wireless network connection for your Panorama 
3 is to be used, the next setup stage is to connect 
your Panorama 3 to your home WiFi network. The 
app will ask you to confirm the correct WiFi network 
and ask you to input its password. Alternatively, 
if your Panorama 3 is connected to your network 
router using an Ethernet cable and a USB-C to 
Ethernet adaptor, this stage of the setup process will 
be bypassed.

Note: If you already have other Bowers & Wilkins-
compatible products connected to your WiFi 
network, the Panorama 3 will not require you to 
input your WiFi password as this will be shared 
securely via the Quick Connect function.

With WiFi network configuration and space selection 
complete, you will need to configure the input you 
have selected for the connection to the TV. The 
app will step you through setting up your TV. If you 
have connected to the TV with HDMI ARC/eARC, 
the Bowers & Wilkins Music App will show you how 
to connect the Panorama 3 to the TV and enable 
CEC. This allows you to control the audio on the 
Panorama 3 with your TV or set-top box remote 
control. If you have connected the TV with the 
optical connector, the Bowers & Wilkins Music App 
will show you how to connect the Panorama 3 to the 
TV and disable the TV’s internal speakers. You will 
next be asked if you want the Panorama 3 to learn 
the IR commands of your TV remote, allowing you to 
control the Panorama 3 with this remote.

Note: If the Panorama 3 does not receive IR 
commands during the setup process, you may 
need to enable IR support on external devices 
on your TV. Please refer to your TV manual for 
further information.

6. Standalone Bluetooth Setup

It is possible to use your Panorama 3 over Bluetooth 
without the need to connect the product to a 
network. With your Panorama 3 in setup mode – 
indicated by the Multifunction button pulsing slowly 
amber – press and hold the Multifunction button 
for 5 seconds. The Panorama 3 will play an audio 
prompt and the Multifunction button will flash blue. 
This indicates that the Panorama 3 is in Bluetooth 
pairing mode and can be connected to via your 
source device’s Bluetooth menu. The Panorama 3 
will be available in the Bluetooth menu under the 
name ‘Panorama 3’.

Note: In this configuration, the product can no 

longer be set up onto a network. To connect the 
Panorama 3 onto a network when in Standalone 
Bluetooth mode, you will need to perform a 
factory reset of the product via the Reset button 
on the rear of the product (see section 4).

The Panorama 3 can be paired with multiple devices 
by pressing and holding the Multifunction button for 
5 seconds to enter pairing mode. The Panorama 3 
can support pairing with up to eight devices.

Note: The Panorama 3 will remain in pairing 
mode for 2 minutes and time out if no device is 

paired within that time. To re-enter pairing mode 
press and hold the Multifunction button.

7. Using Your Panorama 3

7.1 Spaces 

Spaces are a core concept of the Bowers & Wilkins 
Music App and compatible products. A ‘Space’ 
is a room or a specific area in your home in which 
you listen to music. It is not possible to use the 
Panorama 3 with any other device in the same 
space.

7.2 Dolby Support

The Panorama 3 will support Dolby Digital audio in 
the following formats:

• 

Dolby Digital

• 

Dolby Digital Plus™

• 

Dolby Atmos

• 

Dolby TrueHD

For all of these audio formats, the Panorama 3 will 
automatically optimise playback and provide the 
best audio performance possible.

7.3 Streaming Music

You can use your Panorama 3 to play audio from 
streaming services such as Spotify, Apple Music, 
Qobuz and Tidal. These can be streamed directly 
from the Bowers & Wilkins Music App, Spotify 
Connect®, AirPlay® 2 or Bluetooth.

7.4 Playing Audio via the Bowers & Wilkins 
Music App

Once you have connected to your product and 
enabled a music streaming service in the Bowers & 
Wilkins Music App, you can browse music from your 
streaming service. Once you have selected the track 
you want to play, simply click the ‘Play’ button. If you 
only have a single space, the music will automatically 
play in that space. If you have multiple spaces, 
clicking ‘Play’ will display a list of the available 
spaces in your home, and selecting a space will play 
the audio through the selected space.

7.5 Playing Audio via Spotify Connect

Use your phone, tablet or computer as a remote 
control for Spotify. Go to https://www.spotify.com/

n how.

7.6 Playing Audio via AirPlay

AirPlay enables apps on Apple mobile, laptop or 
desktop devices to stream audio over a network to 
any AirPlay-compatible speakers, such as Panorama 
3. AirPlay-enabled apps will display the AirPlay icon.

To use AirPlay, open the app you wish to use and 
select the content you wish to play. Tap on the 
AirPlay icon to display a list of available devices 
followed by the space name you wish to use.

7.7 Playing Audio via Bluetooth

Bluetooth enables audio apps on mobile, laptop or 
desktop devices to stream material over a wireless 
connection to your Panorama 3.

To use Bluetooth, you will first need to pair your 
device to the Panorama 3. On the Bowers & Wilkins 
Music App, select Settings and then select the 
space that contains the device you want to pair with. 
Selecting ‘Pair new device’ will put the Panorama 
3 into Bluetooth pairing mode. Go to the Bluetooth 
menu of your device and pair it with the Panorama 
3. The Panorama 3 will use the space name in the 
Bluetooth pairing menu. Once paired, you can play 
audio via any app on your source device. You can 
see a list of the devices paired to your Panorama 3 
in the Bowers & Wilkins Music App.

Note: The Panorama 3 will remain in pairing 
mode for 2 minutes and time out if no device is 
paired within that time. To re-enter pairing mode, 
repeat the steps above.

8. Bowers & Wilkins Music App

The Bowers & Wilkins Music App opens on the main 
page. At the bottom of the page are four navigation 
icons for the main sections of the app: browse, 
library, search and settings. The icon illuminated in 
yellow indicates which page you are on.

8.1 Browse

The browse page of the Bowers & Wilkins Music 
App has content arranged in multiple rows in 
a ribbon view that you can search through by 
swiping right and left. The browse page shows 
recommended playlists that are generated based on 
your musical taste, your recently played music and 
some recommended playlists curated by Bowers & 
Wilkins. You can also scroll down and browse music 
from any specific streaming services you have linked 
to your app.

Note: The recommendations are based on the 
genres, artists, albums and tracks that you 
have liked. To like any material, simply click the 
heart symbol. The more you like, the better the 
recommendations will be. Your recommendations 
will stay with you and your Bowers & Wilkins 
account and are not linked to your music 
streaming service.

8.2 Library

The library page groups together all the material that 
you have liked either in the Bowers & Wilkins Music 
App or in any of your streaming services. You can 
search content here by music, podcasts and radio. If 
you have liked material in a streaming service native 
app, it may not appear in the Bowers & Wilkins 
Music App Library straight away.

8.3 Search

You can search for any music via the search function 
in the Bowers & Wilkins Music App. The app will 
search for results from all your linked streaming 
services.
