to connect a smartphone to a speaker or a
headset. There are basically two steps to making
Bluetooth work.
PAIRING:
The two devices get to know each other.
CONNECTING:
The two devices do something together (like play
music).
“Hi. I’m a phone.”

Bluetooth Wireless Connection Tips
•Make sure the Bluetooth capability of your device is turned on.
•Make sure there’s nothing plugged into the speaker’s AUX IN
jack when you’re trying to use Bluetooth.
• The Bluetooth wireless connection works up to a range of roughly
33 feet (10 meters). This range may vary, however, based on other
factors, such as room layout, wall material, obstacles, your device’s
Bluetooth performance, etc. If you’re having problems connecting to
this speaker, move closer to it.
• Make sure your device supports audio transfer A2DP.
•If your device asks you for a password to connect, use “0000”.
Choose 808 Hex TL from
the pairing options on
your smartphone. (If it’s
not in the list, choose
“Scan” from your phone’s
Bluetooth menu.)
