Listening to music from the connected BLUETOOTH device

You can enjoy listening to music of a BLUETOOTH device and operate it by the speaker via a BLUETOOTH connection if it supports the following BLUETOOTH profiles.

A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile)

Enables you to enjoy high-quality audio contents wirelessly.

AVRCP (Audio Video Remote Control Profile)

Enables you to adjust the volume and operate to play, pause or skip to the beginning of the next/current track.

Operations may vary depending on the BLUETOOTH device. Refer also to the operating instructions supplied with the BLUETOOTH device.

Note

  • Make sure beforehand that the volume on the BLUETOOTH device and speaker are set to a moderate level to avoid sudden loud sound output from the speaker.

  • Depending on the BLUETOOTH device, adjusting the volume of the speaker may not be possible on the BLUETOOTH device while playback on the device is stopped/paused.

  • This speaker does not support the BLUETOOTH profile HFP (Hands-free Profile)/HSP (Headset Profile) that enables hands-free calls with a BLUETOOTH mobile phone.

  1. On the BLUETOOTH device, make sure that a BLUETOOTH connection is established with the speaker.
  2. Start playing music on the BLUETOOTH device.
  3. Adjust the volume by pressing the – (volume) button or the + (volume) button on the speaker or operating the BLUETOOTH device.

    When you press the – (volume) button or the + (volume) button on the speaker or adjust the volume on the BLUETOOTH device, the (power) indicator flashes once or 3 times.

    Depending on the BLUETOOTH device you are using, the speaker's (power) indicator may not flash, even if you adjust the volume using the BLUETOOTH device.

    Hint

    • In a noisy place or a place that is exposed to strong winds or echoes (sound reflections), the speaker may fail to detect the voice command. In such a case, press and hold the (play) button on the speaker for about 3 seconds. This action is equivalent to saying “Ok Google” to the speaker.

    During playback, you can use the (play) button on the speaker to perform the following operations.

    Pause

    Press the (play) button during playback to pause. Press it again to cancel pause.

    Skip to the beginning of the next track

    Press the (play) button twice quickly during playback.

    Skip to the beginning of the current or previous track*

    Press the (play) button 3 times quickly during playback.

    * The speaker acts differently depending on the BLUETOOTH device in use.

Note

  • If the communication condition is poor, the BLUETOOTH device may react incorrectly to the operations on the speaker.

  • When using in a place with a high temperature, the volume may decrease to protect the built-in battery.

  • If the built-in battery level is low, the maximum output of the speaker decreases.

  • Depending on the BLUETOOTH device, it may be necessary to adjust the volume or set the audio output setting on the connected device.

  • Noise or sound interruption may occur depending on the BLUETOOTH device connected with the speaker, the communication environment or the usage environment.

  • Video viewing using a BLUETOOTH connection is not recommended. A slight misalignment occurs in video and audio.
