POWERBANK
Soundwave comes with a USB-A output port, which is capable of supplying up to 5V⎓2A (10W).
Whilst charging another device, the LED battery indicator lights will flash. The number of lights flashing will indicate how much charge is remaining in the speaker’s powerbank.

MULTIPOINT CONNECTION
Multipoint is a feature that allows Soundwave to connect to two Bluetooth devices at once. This means that you can listen to music from one device, whilst still hearing notifications and receiving calls from another device.
To setup Multipoint:

1. Connect your first Bluetooth device.
2. Hold down the UNISYNC button for 2 seconds to disconnect Bluetooth.
3. Connect your second Bluetooth device.
4. Hold down the power button for 2 seconds and turn off Soundwave.
5. Hold down the power button for 2 seconds and turn on Soundwave.

Soundwave will announce “Bluetooth connected” twice. Soundwave will play audio from the last device it receives a command from, but it will treat the device with calls and notifications as priority.
