Device Compatibility
Cub Connect™ is compatible with the following
devices:
• iPhone 4S/ 5 / 5S (iOS 6 or later)
• iPod Touch (iOS 6 or later and Bluetooth®
compatible)
• Android 4.3 (or later and Bluetooth®
compatible)
Smart Hour Meter
The hour meter “advertises” the hours run and the
battery voltage via a Bluetooth® antenna. There is
only one way communication, meaning the hour
meter will talk to the Bluetooth® app only.
Setup Conditions
When setting up the Cub Connect™ App, it is
important to make sure the phone power is on and
the Bluetooth® setting is on. The key should be in the
“on” position and the phone and equipment should
be within 150 ft. of each other. It is important to
remember to turn off the ignition when done using
Cub Connect™.
Finishing Setup
To finish the setup, you must enter the model and
serial number of your unit. You will need to manually
enter the 11-digit factory number from the ID tag
and you can scan the bar code from the ID tag for
the serial number. Once this is done just click on the
continue button.
Navigation Menu
There are 6 navigation options that you can choose
from in the navigation menu:
• Dashboard – Lists numerous maintenance
items you can check

Dealer locator. Enter your zip code and the mileage
range you want and the results will show in a map
view or you can select a list view. You can also get
directions and the phone number for the dealer.

You can register your unit right from the Cub
Connect™ app. Product registration is listed as an
option in the Navigation Menu. You must fill out
the required information and click on the complete
process button. It will return to the dashboard and
the Product Registration should no longer be visible.
