Connecting to a paired controller

After the controller has been paired with a device, the device will remember the controller and you only need to use the (XBOX) button to turn the controller on and off.

Power On: Press (XBOX) button for 1 second until it the logo lights up
Power Off: Press and hold (XBOX) button for 5-10 seconds until the logo light turns off

Troubleshooting

• If the Xbox controller asks for a PIN on pairing or it doesn't work despite being paired, make sure it's updated with the latest firmware.
• If the controller is already paired to another device, turn off the controller, and then press and hold the Pair button for a few seconds until it starts blinking. If this doesn't work, turn off Bluetooth on the other device or walk outside away from any nearby devices and retry the pairing process.
