The wireless board receives signals from a phone (or other device) so your speaker can play music. The radio waves that carry the signals can change frequencies hundreds of times per second. This frequency hopping ensures that your signal doesn’t “bump into” any other signals in the air (like WiFi or phone calls).

Stop & Test
Pair and test your speaker!

Plug the USB cable into a USB power source.
The speaker will beep!

Check the wireless board. The blue light should be blinking. That means the speaker is ready to connect.
If the blue light is solid, your speaker is already connected to a device, and you can skip the next step.
On your device with Bluetooth technology, go to the Bluetooth settings and enter pairing mode. Select DW-CT14+ to connect.
When paired, the speaker will beep again, and the blue light will turn solid.
Play some music!

Arazoak

If the blue light isn’t on, make sure the USB cable is firmly plugged into both the wireless board and a power source. The cable should draw electricity from any from any power source with a USB port.

If you can’t find the speaker on your device, make sure the speaker’s light is blinking. If it’s solid, the speaker is connected to a different device. Turn off the Bluetooth settings on that device for the speaker to enter pairing mode again.
