Using the 

B66

Pairing is the set-up process to introduce your Bluetooth-capable device to the B66. Once your device is 

paired, the B66 can recognize it and you can play your audio through it. 

1. Make sure your Bluetooth device is fully charged. Turn on your Bluetooth device and make 

it “discoverable” by turning on Bluetooth mode (check in Options or Settings).

2. Slide the 

Aux/    /Off

 Switch on the back of the unit to the     position (center). A tone will 

sound and the Bluetooth indicator will flash blue as the B66 searches for a connected device 

for 10 seconds. After 10 seconds, the Bluetooth indicator will flash blue and red and a tone 

will sound, indicating pairing mode.

3. “Xi-B66” should appear in your device’s Bluetooth menu. If “Not Paired”, “Not Connected” or similar 

message appears, select “Xi-B66” to connect it. If prompted for a passcode, enter “1234” on your device’s 

keypad.

4.  If pairing is successful, a tone will sound and the Bluetooth indicator light will glow solid, indicating the 

B66 is ready to play music. There should also be an indication on your device. If no device is successfully 

paired within 2 minutes the B66 will default to previous mode. Once the B66 is paired to a device, it 

will attempt to autolink when the device  is within range (about 30 feet).

Pairing with a Different Device

When the speaker is in       mode, it will automatically link with the previously paired Bluetooth device as 

long as that device is still within range (approx. 30 feet). So, to pair with a different device you must turn 

off the Bluetooth capability of the already paired device.

Playing Audio Via Bluetooth 

1.  Move the 

Aux/   /Off Switch

 to the Bluetooth position (center) to listen to audio streamed wirelessly 

from your paired iPad, iPhone, iPod or other Bluetooth device.

 The 

Power/Charging/Pairing Indicator Light 

on the front of the unit will flash blue and a tone will 

sound as the unit searches for a previously paired device, and then turn solid blue once a previously 

paired device is detected.

2.  Use the controls on your device to play or pause audio, navigate tracks and control volume from your 

Bluetooth device. 

3.  When done listening, move the 

Aux/   /Off Switch 

to the OFF position (right) to turn the unit off.

Using the 

B66

Playing Audio via Aux In

1.  Connect a standard 3.5mm audio cable (not included) to the 

Aux-in

 jack on the back of the unit and 

connect the other end to the headphone or line-out jack on your audio device. 

2.  Move the 

Aux/  /Off Switch

 to the Aux position (left) to listen to audio via aux in. The 

Power/Charging/Pairing Indicator Light 

on the front of the unit will glow blue.

3.   Power on the audio device and use the controls on the device to play or pause audio, navigate tracks 

and control volume.

Trouble pairing device/computer with B66

Bluetooth implementation varies depending on your device’s hardware and operating system. Please see 

our website for updates on pairing. 

•  When the speaker is in     mode, it will automatically link with the last previously paired Bluetooth   

device if the device is still within range (approx. 30 feet). To pair with a different device you must turn 

off Bluetooth capability on the already paired device, or take it out of range.

•  If your device does not auto-link when within range, re-pair the device. To do so, first delete the B66 

from your Bluetooth devices menu. Move the 

Aux/   /Off Switch

 on the unit to the    position (center) 

to begin pairing (see page 5 for pairing details).

•  Make sure your device is working properly. Check your device’s manual for details on Bluetooth 

pairing and linking.
