- Insert the audio plug from the right speaker into your computer’s audio-out port.
- Connect the USB-C cable from the right speaker to a USB-C port on your computer.
Notes:
- If your computer does not have an available USB-C port, connect the USB-C-to-USB-A adapter to the speaker’s USB-C cable, then plug the USB-A end into an available USB-A port on your computer.
- Your computer speakers require a minimum power input of 10W. For best performance, use a 12W adapter.

Note: If your AC adapter has an available USB-C port, connect the speaker’s USB-C cable directly to the adapter.
- Plug the AC power adapter into a wall outlet or power strip.
- Connect your audio device using a wired or Bluetooth connection. See “Connecting Wired (AUX) Devices” or “Connecting Bluetooth Devices.”

Connecting Bluetooth Devices
- Make sure your Bluetooth device is turned on and within 32.8 ft. (10 m) of the speaker system.
- Rotate the ON/OFF and VOL +/- control knob clockwise to turn on the speaker system. The status LED blinks blue to indicate pairing mode.

Note: If you have trouble pairing, refer to the instructions provided with your Bluetooth device.
Reconnecting a Bluetooth Device
Make sure the last paired Bluetooth device is turned on, has Bluetooth enabled, and is near the speaker system. When the speakers are in Bluetooth mode, they automatically search for and attempt to reconnect to the last paired device.
