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

from your Bluetooth device. If no audio is detected for 5 minutes, the unit will automatically
shut off to save battery power.
3. When done listening, move the ON/OFF-DEMO Switch to the OFF position to turn the unit off.
Speakerphone Operation
NOTE: The unit must be powered on and linked to a Bluetooth phone to receive a call.

• Check that all connections are correct and properly plugged in.
• Make sure your device is properly paired with the Li-B43.

Trouble pairing device with Li-B43
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
Li-B43 from your Bluetooth device’s menu.
• Make sure your device is working properly. Check your device’s manual for details on Bluetooth
pairing and linking.

Pairing is the set-up process to introduce your Bluetooth-capable device to the Li-B43. Once your
device is paired, the Li-B43 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 Power ON/OFF-DEMO Switch to ON to turn on the Li-B43. The first time the
unit is powered on, it will enter auto-pairing mode and attempt to connect to a Bluetooth
device (if so, skip to step 4). Otherwise, follow step 3 to begin pairing
3. Press and hold the Bluetooth Pairing/Speakerphone Button for 3 seconds. The
Li-B43 will beep and the Bluetooth status indicator light will flash quickly.
4.
“Star Wars Li-B43” should appear in your device’s Bluetooth menu. If “Not Paired”, “Not Connected”
or similar message appears, select “Star Wars Li-B43” to connect it. If prompted for a passcode,
enter “1234” on your device’s keypad.
5. If pairing is successful, a tone will sound and the Bluetooth indicator light will glow solid, indicating
the Li-B43 is ready to play music. There should also be an indication on your device. If no device
is successfully paired within 3 minutes the Li-B43 will default to previous mode. Once the Li-B43
is paired to a device, it will attempt to autolink when the device is within range (about 30 feet).
