Pairing and connecting a device to the speaker
You need to pair your Bluetooth device with the speaker before you can auto-link to play/stream Bluetooth music through the speaker. Paring creates a `bond’ so two devices can recognize each other.
To have the better sound quality, we recommend setting the volume to more than two-thirds level on your Bluetooth device and then adjust the volume on the speaker as required.

Pairing and playing your Bluetooth device for the first time

1. Press the Power button to turn on the speaker and  the Bluetooth indicator will flash in blue. The indicator flashes fast flashing blue indicating the speaker is discoverable.
2. Activate Bluetooth on your device according to the device’s user manual to link to the speaker. Locate the Bluetooth device list and select the device named ‘XRM08/ADRM08’. With some mobiles (which are equipped with earlier versions than BT2.1 Bluetooth device), you may need to input the pass code “0000”.
3. Once connected, there will be a beep sound and the Bluetooth indicator will remain in solid blue. You can simply select and play any music from your source device. Volume control can be adjusted from your source device, or directly from the speaker.
4. Use the controls on your Bluetooth-enabled device or on the speaker to play/pause and navigate tracks.

Note:

• If 2 Bluetooth devices, pairing for the first time, both search for the speaker, it will show its availability on both devices. However, if one device links with this unit first, then the other Bluetooth device won’t find it on the list.
• If your Bluetooth device is temporarily disconnected to the speaker, then you need to manually reconnect your device again to the speaker.
• If ‘XRM08/ADRM08” shows in your Bluetooth device list but your device cannot connect with it, please delete the item from your list and pair the device with the speaker again following the steps described previously.
• The effective operation range between the system and the paired device is approximately 10 meters (30 feet). Any obstacle between the system and the device can reduce the operational range.
• Bluetooth connectivity performance may vary depending on the connected Bluetooth devices. Please refer to the Bluetooth capabilities of your device before connecting to the speaker. All features may not be supported on some paired Bluetooth devices.

Playing audio files in Bluetooth mode
When you have successfully connected the speaker with the chosen Bluetooth device you can start to play your music using the controls on your connected Bluetooth device.

1. Once playing has started adjust the volume to the required setting using the Volume buttons on the speaker or on your enabled Bluetooth device. When you press the Volume up/down button, the volume indicator will flash in fast flashing red. If the indicator light in solid red, it indicates the volume is in maximum volume or minimum volume.
2. Use the controls on your device to play/pause and navigate tracks. Alternatively, control the playback navigate tracks. Alternatively, control the playback using Play/Pause ⏯, Next track ⏭ , Previous track buttons  on the speaker.
3. Press and hold the Next track ⏭ or Previous button ⏮ to fast-forward/Rewind the current track.
   Release the button when the desired point in the track is reached.

Note:
That not all player applications or devices may respond to all of these controls. Some mobile phones may temporarily disconnect from the speaker when you make or receive calls. Some devices may temporarily mute their Bluetooth audio streaming when they receive text messages, emails or for other reasons unrelated to audio streaming. Such behavior is a function of the connected device and does not indicate a fault with the speaker.

Speaker memory and reconnecting a device
The speaker can memorize up to 8 sets of paired device, when the memory exceed this amount, the oldest pairing history will be over written. If your Bluetooth device already paired with the speaker previously, the unit will memorize your Bluetooth device and it attempts to reconnect with a device in memory which is last connected. If the last connected device is not available, the speaker will be discoverable.

Disconnecting your Bluetooth device
Press and hold the Bluetooth pairing button for 2-3 seconds to disconnect with your Bluetooth device. The Bluetooth indicator flashes in blue indicating the speaker is discoverable again for pairing.

Playing music via auxiliary input socket
A 3.5mm Auxiliary input socket is provided on the right side of the unit to permit an audio signal to be fed into the unit from any devices that features a headphone or audio output, such as an iPod, MP3 or CD player.

1. Connect a stereo or mono audio source (for example, iPod, MP3 or CD player) to the Auxiliary input socket (marked ‘AUX’) and the Aux in indicator turns green indicating the speaker is in auxiliary input mode.
2.  Adjust the Volume control on your iPod, MP3 or CD player to ensure an adequate signal and then adjust
3. To have the better sound quality, we recommend setting the volume to more than two-thirds level on your audio device and then adjust the volume on the speaker as required.

Note:
When Aux in socket is connected an audio device, Bluetooth function will be disabled to minimize power consumption.
