never set a passcode, enter 0000 (four zeros)

range is about 9 metres. Range is
reduced when interference is present, like walls or multiple
Bluetooth
devices in the same area

Bluetooth
button until you hear the name of the desired device
Go to the
Bluetooth
settings on your device, select the SoundLink® speaker and choose to
"Forget" or "Remove" the speaker. Next, briefly hold the
Bluetooth
button on the speaker until
the
Bluetooth
light begins flashing Blue. Try again to pair the device to the speaker
Reset the device you are trying to pair. This is typically done by rebooting/restarting it or
removing the battery and/or power cable for one minute
