Quick Links

Congratulations on your purchase of an ARC series console. One possible feature with your
console is the Bluetooth channel. This section of the manual will assist with the operation of
the Bluetooth feature.
Bluetooth is an optional feature for the ARC series consoles (ARC-10 series & ARC-15). The Part
number in the order will specify 'blue' at the end, if you have purchased a Bluetooth version. For
example, the ARC-10BP-blue has Bluetooth, but the ARC-10BP does not.
On your ARC series console, you will
notice your Bluetooth controls on the
left side of the meter panel. The
antenna is located on the top, and
there are 2 buttons with specific tasks.
Bluetooth audio will play out the
Bluetooth channel (CH 10 for ARC-10,
CH 15 for ARC-15). This is the phone
hybrid channel, and may alternatively
be used with your phone hybrid. The
phone and Bluetooth audio sums into
this channel.
