Probably a silly question, but where can I find a Bluetooth manager within Deepin 2014? I'm trying to see if I can install an MS Surface Arc Touch Mouse but don't see where I can go to check on Bluetooth devices. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

Please ensure the bluetooth adapter is activated, if not, just open the hardware switch, or use following commands:

sudo apt-get install rfkill
sudo rfkill unblock bluetooth

If everything fine, you could find the bluetooth icon in control center.

Bluetooth as fasheng has said is in Control Center but there are some issues with it. (I have given up on 2014 and await 2014.1. This is was just one of the features that looked pretty but didn't work.
I can get my bluetooth headset to connect using both bluez and blueman on other distros but blueman is disabled in the repos because of Control Center conflicts.

Fasheng's tip above will make (I HOPE) using bluetooth better in Deepin.
