POWER AND BLUETOOTH™ SPEAKER OPERATION
- To charge the Wingman’s internal lithium-ion battery, connect a smartphone or tablet’s USB charger (any 1A or 2A rated USB charger) to the “IN” micro USB port (1) on the Wingman. The battery is fully charged when the Wingman’s Indicator Ring (8) turns green. A fully charged battery will provide approximately 10 hours operating time at a normal, moderate volume level. Low power is indicated by a flashing orange ring. When the battery charge drops below 3% remaining, the Wingman will power off automatically.
- The “OUT” micro USB port (3) can be used to recharge your phone if necessary while away from other power sources. Note: using the Wingman to recharge mobile devices will reduce the battery level and operating time of the Wingman.
- Hold the Power button on the Wingman (7) until the startup sound is heard and Indicator Ring flashes orange.
- Make sure the Wingman is within 10meters/32 feet from your mobile device. Activate Bluetooth® on your smartphone and select Wingman to pair (Indicator Ring stops flashing when paired with phone). Once paired, music played on your phone will be heard on the Wingman. To disconnect the currently paired device, press Plus and Minus buttons simultaneously. The LED Indicator Ring rapidly flashes, indicating the device has been disconnected, and the Wingman is ready to pair with a new device. Note: when powered on, the Wingman automatically reconnects to the last mobile device it was paired with. The Wingman can memorize up to 8 paired devices. The Wingman will shut off after 15 minutes in pairing mode if no devices have been paired, as a power saving feature.
- Use the Plus (4) and Minus (5) buttons to adjust speaker volume up or down. Press the Play button (6) to pause music, press again to resume. Press and hold the Plus button to advance to the next track. Press and Hold the Minus button to start a track over from the beginning.
- The Wingman has a microphone which allows you to take incoming calls. To answer an incoming call, press the Play button. To reject an incoming call, Press and hold the Play button. To end a call, press Play. To redial the last called number, press and hold the Play button.
USING THE WINGMAN’S REMOTE WITH THE BUSHNELL GOLF APP FOR GPS RANGING
- Download the Bushnell Golf App from the App Store (Apple) or Google Play (Android) and sign up for an account or log in.
- Bluetooth pair the Wingman Remote (2) to your phone, following the instructions on the app screens. Note: the remote control disc needs to be paired separately, in addition to the main Wingman speaker unit, as it can be physically removed and act independently.
- Select Wingman from the list of devices.
- Select “Play Golf”, then select the course you will be playing from the list of nearby golf courses.
- Press the button on the remote control to hear distances (Front, Center, Back) to the closest hole.
- Press the remote button twice to manually advance to the next hole. Hold the remote button down to hear sound effects.
BITE MAGNETIC MOUNT
The Wingman features a powerful BITE magnet incorporated into its housing, which allows the device to be securely attached to a golf cart bar or frame.
WARNING: Bite feature included with device contains a Neodymium magnet. Magnets could affect the functioning of pacemakers and implanted heart defibrillators. If you use these devices, keep sufficient distance from magnet. Warn others who wear these devices from getting too close to magnets.
- Magnet may lose part of its adhesive force permanently if exposed to temperatures above 175o F (80o C).
- Magnets produce far-reaching, strong magnetic field. They could damage TVs and laptops, computer hard drives, credit and ATM cards, data storage media, mechanical watches, hearing aids and speakers. Keep unit away from devices and objects that could be damaged by strong magnetic fields.
- Magnets have strong magnetic fields which can pinch skin and fingers. Use caution when attaching the unit to a metal bar.
TWS CONNECTION (STEREO) OPERATION (requires two Wingman speakers) **
**
The Wingman’s TWS technology enables you to use two Wingman speakers paired via Bluetooth to create a wireless dual-channel system, delivering true stereo sound. Note: a single Wingman provides mono audio, internally mixing together left and right channels of the streamed audio source. To activate TWS operation and listen to stereo music with two Wingman units:
-
Place the two speakers near each other (the distance should not be over 10 meters/33 feet).
-
Power on both speakers. Double click the Power button on one speaker to assign it as the Main (L) speaker (it will play the left channel). The LED Indicator Ring flashes orange, then the two speakers will pair to each other automatically (the other speaker will be the Satellite (R) speaker and play the right channel)
-
Once paired, the Main (L) speaker LED Indicator Ring slowly flashes orange Note: In TWS connection, only the Main
(L) speaker supports Speakerphone. -
To disconnect the TWS connection, press both Plus and Minus buttons on one of the speakers simultaneously until the LED Indicator ring rapidly blinks orange to indicate the TWS connection has been disconnected.
INDOOR/OUTDOOR EQ MODE
Double click the Play/Pause button to change the sound mode, electronically equalizing the amplifier’s tonal balance for optimum listening quality when used indoors (clubhouse/home) or outdoors (golf course). The LED Indicator Ring slowly flashes orange in Outdoor mode, and remains a solid orange in Indoor mode. Note: the Wingman default mode is Indoor.
CLEANING AND GENERAL CARE
IMPORTANT NOTE: To ensure the Wingman is water resistant, remove all
cable connections and close the port protection cover tightly after charging
and before use.
Follow these tips for proper cleaning and maintenance:
- Blow away any excessive dust or debris on exterior (or use a soft brush).
- To remove dirt or finger prints, clean with a micro-fiber cloth. The Wingman is water resistant, but should not be exposed to heavy rain or other direct streams of water, and will not withstand submersion in water or other liquids.
- When you are not using the speaker/remote, please store it in a secure, dry indoor location for additional protection.
TROUBLESHOOTING

unauthorized service attempts, which also void the warranty.
