Speaker setup and power
Before first use, connect the speaker to an AC outlet using the provided USB cable and power supply to activate the battery. The battery light will blink amber while charging and glow green when fully charged. To power on, press the Power button.

Bluetooth pairing
You can pair your mobile device using standard Bluetooth settings or NFC. To pair via Bluetooth, turn on the feature on your device and select the speaker from the list. For NFC, tap and hold your device against the top center of the speaker (Bose logo). The speaker can store up to eight paired devices and connect to two simultaneously.

Care and maintenance
Clean the speaker surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaners. Do not allow liquids to enter any openings. For technical support or replacement parts, visit worldwide.Bose.com/Support/SLRPii.
