Charging Your Speaker

Your speaker has a built-in, rechargeable lithium Ion battery. To avoid damage, do not attempt to remove the
battery. The full performance of the battery is only achieved after a few charging-discharging cycles. Charge
the battery fully before rst use. To do so, follow the steps below:

1. Connect one end of the included USB charging cable to the charging port on your speaker. Then plug the
other end of the USB charging cable into a USB port on your computer or a suitable power adapter in order
to recharge the internal rechargeable battery.

NOTE: The internal battery of your speaker takes approximately two hours to charge when completely
drained.

NOTE: Overcharging could reduce the life of the battery. A charged battery will lose its capacity if it is not
used on a regular basis.

Important!
To avoid a complete discharge of the battery, charge your speaker at least once every six
months.

Pairing Your Speaker with a Bluetooth Device

Your speaker can be paired with most Bluetooth devices so that you can stream music wirelessly. In
order to pair your speaker with a phone, follow the steps below:

1. Slide the Control Switch on the rear of your speaker to the Bluetooth position. The LED indicator light
will turn blue and blink rapidly. This indicates that your speaker is in pairing mode.

2. Go to the Bluetooth Manager of your Bluetooth device.

3. Search Bluetooth devices and select your speaker (most frequently listed as “Retro speaker”) to start
connecting.

4. Enter “0000” if your device asks for the PIN code.

5. Once paired, the LED indicator light will slowly blink blue every few seconds.

1. Slide the Control Switch on the rear of your speaker to the
induction position.

2. Play an audio track on your smartphone, and use your
phone’s volume controls to control the volume level.

3. Place your smartphone so that it rests against your
speaker’s Induction Audio Pad. For best results, try to line
up your smartphone’s speaker so that it is as close as
possible to the Sensor Point on the audio pad.

NOTE: When playing music, volume can be controlled by turning the volume knob. Use the buttons on the
front of your speaker to play and pause a track, to advance to the next song in a playlist, or return to the last
track.

Audio Pad.
