How to pair the Aranet4 to my smart
device
The Aranet4 device can be connected to a smart device using
the Bluetooth connection and the Aranet4 app (iPhone and
Android based). Make sure Bluetooth connectivity is enabled
on your smart device and on your Aranet4 device.

To connect your Aranet4 device to your smart device follow the
below steps:

  • Launch the Aranet4 app and on the main page (My devices)
    add a new device by clicking on the (+) symbol.

  • Select your Aranet4 device from the list.

  • When prompted, confirm the start of pairing.

  • Type in the 6 digit passcode that is shown on the display of
    your Aranet4 device.
