Pairing with a Different Device

When you power ON the speaker, it will automatically link with the previously paired Bluetooth device 

as long as that device is still within range (approx. 30 feet). To pair with a different device follow steps

1. Slide the

wirelessly from your paired  Bluetooth device.

2.  Use controls on your Bluetooth device to play, pause and navigate tracks. 
3. Press the 

 –

  or  

 

+

  Button

 to adjust the iBT70 volume. You can also adjust volume on your device. 

4. When done listening, slide the

 Power On/Off Switch

 to OFF turn the unit OFF. Remember to turn 

off your device, too.

Trouble pairing device with iBT70

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

our website for updates on pairing. 

• When you power ON the speaker, 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 iBT70 

from your Bluetooth devices menu. 

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

and linking.

carry strap. Insert this loop through the desired channel, then pull the 
loop back through the larger loop formed in the carry strap to tighten.

Power On/Off Switch

 to ON to turn on the iBT70. 

The first time the unit is 

powered on

device (if so, skip to step 4). Otherwise, follow step 3 to begin pairing.

3.  

Press and hold

 the 

Bluetooth/Speakerphone Button

 for 2 seconds. The iBT70 will 

beep and the Bluetooth status indicator light on top of the unit will flash quickly.
If Color Mode is on, the cabinet lights will flash blue and red. 

4. “iHome iBT70” should appear in your device’s Bluetooth menu. If “Not Paired”, “Not Connected” or similar 

message appears, select “iHome iBT70” to connect it. If prompted for a passcode, enter “1234” on your 
device’s keypad.

5. If pairing is successful, 1 beep will sound and the Bluetooth status indicator light will appear solid blue (in 

Color Mode, cabinet will flash blue twice), indicating the iBT70 is ready to play music. There should also 
be an indication on your device. If no device is successfully paired within 3 minutes the iBT70 will default 
to previous mode. Once the iBT70 is paired to a device, it will attempt to autolink when the device is 
within range (about 30 feet).
