Plus/Minus Volume ButtonsCharging contacts Charging contactsIntroductionThank you for purchasing the Split Rechargeable Speakers with Charging Base. The Split is all about options. This unique unit features 2 separate speakers with individual controls which can be used connected together for great stereo sound via Bluetooth or aux in, or separated for even better stereo sound image via True Wireless. Each speaker can also be used as a separate mono speaker. Speakerphone capability allows you to listen to calls from either or both speakers. The included charging base charges speakers for portable use. A micro USB charging/audio port on each speaker lets you charge the speakers when you’re away from the charging base, and play audio from any device equipped with a headphone jack. Please read the following instructions carefully before use and save for future reference.Controls OverviewEach speaker has the same controls and can be used independently (2 mono speakers) or together (stereo). By default, the left speaker (speaker A) is the Master speaker and controls the Slave speaker, the right speaker (speaker B) when the speakers are connected. When speakers are separate, whichever speaker is powered on becomes the master when connected to the other speaker.
