seconds. A sound prompt will play to confirm both speakers are preparing to enter
TWS pairing mode.
4. Wait for the LED status indicator on the left channel speaker flashes, and the LED
status indicator on the right channel speaker turns a solid blue. Once this happens,
the TWS connection is successful.
5. Switch on the Bluetooth on your device. Ensure your device is set to be visible to all
nearby Bluetooth devices.
6. Search for "KAXP8SPKBKA" on your device and tap to connect. If you are unable
to find the speaker, try refreshing the list of available devices on your device. The
LED status indicators on both speakers will turn a solid blue if the connection is
successful.

speaker.
