3. Bluetooth Pairing

To connect your speaker to a Bluetooth-enabled device:

  1. Ensure the speaker is powered on and in Bluetooth pairing mode (the LED indicator will typically flash blue rapidly).
  2. On your device (smartphone, tablet, etc.), go to the Bluetooth settings and enable Bluetooth.
  3. Search for available devices. Select "IP-190" from the list.
  4. Once connected, the LED indicator will turn solid blue, and you will hear a confirmation sound.

The speaker will automatically attempt to reconnect to the last paired device when powered on.

4. TWS (True Wireless Stereo) Pairing

For an immersive stereo experience, you can pair two IP-190 speakers together:

  1. Ensure both IP-190 speakers are powered on and not connected to any other Bluetooth device.
  2. On one of the speakers (this will be the primary speaker), double-press the Power button (or a dedicated TWS button if available, refer to product for exact control). You will hear a prompt indicating TWS pairing mode.
  3. The two speakers will automatically search for and connect to each other. Once paired, you will hear a confirmation sound, and the LED indicators on both speakers will change to indicate a successful TWS connection.
  4. Now, connect your device to the primary speaker via Bluetooth as described in step 3. The primary speaker's name will appear in your device's Bluetooth list.
