Bluetooth Connection
First time connecting with new devices

- Bluetooth LED status light will begin blinking. Search your device’s Bluetooth list and select “CA 2.0 BT SPEAKER” to connect/pair.
- After a successful connection, a tone will sound, and the Bluetooth LED status light will stop flashing and turn solid blue.
Reconnecting with previous devices
- When the system is on, the speakers will automatically switch to the previous playing mode. If it is in Bluetooth mode, the system will automatically search and attempt to connect with the last paired device. If it is in Aux mode, press the Source button once; the system will automatically search and attempt to connect with the last paired device.
- Make sure the Bluetooth source is nearby to automatically reconnect.
Force pairing and connection with new devices
- When the system is on, the speaker system has connected to any device. Press and hold the source button for three seconds until the blue LED begins blinking. Search your device’s Bluetooth list for “CA 2.0 BT SPEAKER” and tap to connect/pair.
AUX IN Connection
The Speaker system defaults to Bluetooth mode when initially turned on.
- Press the Source button once and you will hear a tone as the system switches to AUX IN mode

- Source Button – Press the Source button once to change from Bluetooth mode to AUX IN mode.
- Auxiliary Input Jack – The auxiliary input jack is located on the back of the right speaker and allows easy connection to second audio sources.

Troubleshooting Bluetooth connections
Can’t connect for the first time
- Turn off the speaker. Then turn the speaker back on. Follow the above instructions for a first-time Bluetooth Connection.
Can’t connect when returning to the speaker system
- If the system does not automatically reconnect with your Bluetooth-enabled device, you may need to physically go to your device’s Bluetooth setting and manually select again “CA 2.0 BT SPEAKER” to reconnect.
- You may also try going to your device’s Bluetooth settings and selecting “Forget this device” to remove the speaker system from the list. You may need to turn off the Bluetooth function on your devices to fully clear the list. Then see the steps above by following the Bluetooth Connection for 1st-time connection.
- Check to see if any other devices are already connected to the system. The first indication for this is the speaker LED status light will show solid Blue. The speaker can only pair with one device at a time. Go to that source device to disconnect from the system first. Then you can follow the above steps for 1st time Bluetooth Connection.
Audio is choppy or keeps disconnecting
- Be sure to check your room environment. Bluetooth technology has a range limit of approximately 30 feet – line of sight. This generally means your best results will be limiting your source device and speakers to the same room. Extremely large rooms, or rooms with a lot of wireless electronics, wi-fi routers, etc., may affect the quality of sound, connection, or connection consistency.
- Check for obstructions, walls, too many people, or other objects that might impede the Bluetooth signal.
- Try returning the Bluetooth source device to closer proximity with your speakers.
Troubleshooting
The Speaker system will not power on.
- The power knob is not turned on. Rotate clockwise and check for the blue LED indicator light to come on.
- Verify the AC power cord is securely plugged into the wall outlet.
- Check if the wall outlet, or power strip (if used), is actually getting power, i.e. not a switched outlet.
Speaker does not produce sound.
- Verify the speaker is getting power. Check the above steps.
- Make sure the volume is turned up to an audible listening level.
- Verify that all cables are plugged into the correct jacks.
- Often the issue is not with the speakers, but the sound source. The most common is connecting to a computer using an incorrect jack/plug. Double-check the speakers are connected to the audio output jack from your computer. Often this jack will be green in color. Also, make sure the media/application’s volume settings are turned up and not set on mute.
- If you’re still having problems, disconnect the speaker source cable and connect to a smartphone, iPod, or most anything with a 3.5mm headphone output. If your speakers then work, you know the speakers are functioning correctly and the issue likely lies with the computer or other source connections.
The sound is distorted.
- Turn the volume down by 25% or 50%. If this does not work, also check the audio source volume level and decrease there if necessary.
- Set your source device master volume to 50%, then adjust the volume level on the speakers until desired.
