Side panel buttons on the JBL Flip 5 Bluetooth speaker.
Gives the JBL Flip 5 Bluetooth pairing procedure. This applies mainly to iOS devices, such as the iPhone, iPod Touch, and the iPad Air. But slight variations of this also work with Android devices.
Start with your JBL Flip 5 OFF. Then run through this procedure to pair it to your iPad, iPhone, or iPod Touch iOS mobile device. We use an iPad Air tablet in this demo.
Firstly, press the Home button to reveal the mobile device’s Home screen.
Then we find ours on the second page of the Home screen on our iPad Air.
Thirdly, tap the Settings app icon.
The iPad then displays the first page of its settings.
Note that our Bluetooth is running here. But since our Flip 5 is currently OFF, it does not appear in the Bluetooth devices list. Also, it isn’t there because we’ve never paired it with this iPad before.
Then turn on the 5 by quickly pressing its Power button.
The unit then powers up.
But since our iPad does not know about it, the Flip 5 does not Bluetooth pair with the device automatically. The speaker denotes this not-paired state by leaving the Bluetooth lamp dark.
Then, to see your JBL Flip 5 on your iOS device, place it into Bluetooth discovery mode. Thus to do that, press and release the Bluetooth button.
When you press this Bluetooth button, the Flip 5 plays a repeating single pluck guitar note. Also, the Bluetooth button starts flashing white.
So we find our Flip 5 as follows.
Then tap the JBL Flip 5 entry in the Other Devices section of the Bluetooth devices list.
Our iOS device then pairs with the JBL Flip 5.
The iOS device’s Bluetooth Settings screen then changes to look something like the following.
Finally, we have now paired our JBL Flip 5 with our mobile device.
