Turn off typeahead autocomplete temporarily

I am using bloodhound to suggest products from a list. Once selected, input fields will automatically be filled in for the user.

When a user has selected a product, the autocomplete suggestions must be disabled temporarily - but the input must still be changeable. If a user presses a button to deselect the product, all input fields will be cleared and the suggestion engine must be enabled again.

I am trying to create two functions: enableSuggestions() and disableSuggestions(). Is there any way to achieve this?

If you disable the input that typeahead works on, the suggestions will be disabled as well.

You can disable the input when a suggestion is selected (typeahead will trigger an event - typeahead:select) and remove the disabled attribute when the user deselects the product.
