5. Joining Wireless Networks and
configuring iTunes
In order to play your iTunes music on your A5 using
AirPlay, your A5 must join the same network as the
computer on which iTunes is installed and running.
A5 network addressing is set to DHCP which means
that once it has joined the wireless network it will
not require any further configuration. You will need
to know your home wireless network name and
password before you start.
5.1 Set up your A5 with your iOS device
(iPod touch, iPad or iPhone)
• Get the Bowers & Wilkins AirPlay Setup
App from the App Store or by visiting
www.bowers-wilkins.com/setupapp
• Follow the onscreen instructions.
5.2 Set up with Mac or PC
• Get the Bowers & Wilkins AirPlay Setup App from
the Mac App Store (Mac users only) or by visiting
www.bowers-wilkins.com/setupapp
• Follow the onscreen instructions.
5.3 Setting up A5 using a wired
connection
To set up A5 to join your wireless network you
should first connect it physically to the Mac/PC using
an Ethernet cable. You will need to ensure that your
Mac/PC wireless capabilities are disabled. Once
connected you can browse to the A5 setup page.
Follow the steps described below.
Note: A5 can also use a wired network for
AirPlay streaming.
• Unplug every cable from the A5.
• Using an Ethernet cable connect the A5 rear panel
ETHERNET socket to an Ethernet socket on the
computer.
• Connect the power cable. A5 will switch on with
the indicator pulsing red.
• Once the A5 indicator begins to flash yellow.
Press and hold the '+' volume button on A5 for
4 seconds. A5's indicator will show solid purple
once the wired network connection is established.
• Using an internet browser application running on
the computer connected to the A5 type the A5
default network address (http://169.254.1.1) in the
browser address field and press "return". This will
open the A5 setup page.
• The setup page provides the option to change
the A5 name. Changing the name is useful if more
than one A5 is to be connected to the network.
Enter a new name (A5 Kitchen for example) in the
Name box.
• Select your home network Name from the
drop down list and enter the Password in the
appropriate box. Take care to type the password
correctly.
• When you are finished, click on the Apply button,
then close the A5 setup page. Disconnect the
Ethernet cable.
• The A5 indicator will change to steady purple when
the wireless network connection is established.
This will take up to 3 minutes.
Note: If A5 fails to connect to your home wireless
network, the most likely fault is an incorrectly
entered network password. Follow the reset
instructions in Section 7 and begin the network
setup procedure again.
5.4 Configuring iTunes
With A5 connected to your home network (wired or
wireless) you can configure iTunes to use it as an
output device. Configure iTunes by selecting A5 in
the devices menu at the bottom right hand corner
of the iTunes display. iTunes will now play through
the A5.
Multiple A5 units can be connected to the wireless
network and used to provide audio in separate
rooms. Each will be available in the iTunes devices
menu, identified by either the names specified in the
setup page, or by default the last three digits of their
serial numbers.
6. A5 Firmware Update
Updated A5 firmware may from time to time be
made available for download from A5's support
section of the Bowers & Wilkins website.
7. A5 Factory Reset
A5 has a pin-hole reset button located on its rear
connection panel. The reset button is illustrated in
Diagram 6. To return the A5 network settings (AirPlay
input) to the factory defaults, ensure the power cable
is connected, and power the A5 on. Press and hold
the reset button for 2 seconds. The indicator will
flash red twice.

8. Cleaning A5
Use a clothes brush or damp cloth to clean the
grille cloth. Wipe other surfaces with a clean lint-free
cloth. If you wish to use a cleaning agent, apply it
onto the cleaning cloth, not directly onto A5. Test
a small area first, as some cleaning products may
damage some of the surfaces. Avoid products that
are abrasive, or contain acid, alkali or anti-bacterial
agents.
