BLUETOOTH PAIRING

If that device is powered off or out of range, the speaker will automatically enter Bluetooth® pairing mode. If the speaker is connected to a device and you want to connect a different device, press and hold the Bluetooth Button for 2 seconds to disconnect the first device and put the speaker in Bluetooth pairing mode.
With the speaker in Bluetooth® pairing mode, open the Bluetooth settings on your device and scan for nearby Bluetooth devices.
Locate and select the MP43247 entry. If prompted for a passcode, enter 0000 (four zeros).

Note : that if no device is connected within 10 minutes of initiating Bluetooth pairing mode, the speaker will exit Bluetooth pairing mode.

BASIC OPERATION

With the speaker powered off, press and hold the Power Button for 2 seconds to turn the speaker on.
With the speaker powered on, press and hold the Power Button for 2 seconds to turn the speaker off.

If your device does not have Bluetooth® or if you do not want to use Bluetooth, you can listen to audio using a physical connection.

TRUE WIRELESS STEREO MODE
If you have two 43247 speakers, you can connect them together to form a stereo pair for true stereo audio playback by performing the following steps.

Ensure that neither speaker is connected to a Bluetooth® device and that both speakers are powered off.
Power on both speakers, then touch the two of them together on the side opposite the 3.5mm Audio Jack and Micro USB Charging Port. The speakers will automatically connect to each other and an audio tone will be heard. The Bluetooth Button on one speaker will blink and will illuminate solid on the other speaker, indicating that TrueWireless™ Stereo Mode is active.
Open the Bluetooth settings on your mobile device and scan for nearby Bluetooth devices.
Locate and select the MP43247 entry. If prompted for a passcode, enter 0000 (four zeros).
To break the TrueWireless Stereo Mode connection, touch the two speakers together again on the side opposite the 3.5mm Audio Jack and Micro USB Charging Port.
