FAQ
Is my tablet or smartphone compatible with SoundLink around-ear wireless
headphones II?
Bose SoundLink around-ear wireless headphones II are compatible with other Bluetooth devices
that use Bluetooth 2.1 (or later) specifications that support the Bluetooth A2DP, hands-free and
headset profiles.
Can these headphones simultaneously be connected to two devices?
Yes, they can maintain a connection to two Bluetooth devices at the same time by using
multipoint technology.
What is NFC?
Near Field Communication (NFC) is a short-range wireless technology that enables two NFC-
enabled devices to communicate when they are placed in close proximity, typically less than 10
cm (4 in). When an NFC-enabled device, such as a smartphone, is placed near the right earcup of
the headphones, it pairs them to the device via Bluetooth. Placing the device near the earcup a
second time will unpair the headphones.
How do I pair SoundLink around-ear headphones II with my mobile device?
For NFC-enabled phones, simply turn on the headphones by sliding the three-position power
switch to the middle position. Then tap the back side of your phone on the front of the right
earcup where you see the embossed NFC logo, and follow the prompt to accept a connection. If
you don't have an NFC-enabled phone, first, make sure that the headphones are turned on by
sliding the power switch to the middle position. Next, press the power switch to the Bluetooth
icon until the Bluetooth LED flashes blue or the voice-enhanced user interface gives you
additional directions. Now, follow the directions within the smartphone's Bluetooth menu to
connect the headphones. The NFC function in iPhone 6/6 Plus or 7/7 Plus only enables Apple
pay functionality. It doesn't facilitate pairing. Please use pairing instructions for phones that are
not NFC enabled.
Do these headphones work with my TV? Would they work with a Bluetooth
transmitter?
No. Many TVs do not have wireless Bluetooth functionality. Although a transmitter will
technically work, the experience does not meet Bose expectations. There will be a distracting
delay between the audio and video that detracts from the experience.
