Basic Setup:
Press the Power button on the top of the speaker. The Bluetooth light should start flashing blue if it’s ready to pair.
Check your device’s audio output — make sure it’s actually sending the audio to the Bose speaker.
The speaker might be connected to another phone or laptop. Disconnect that one first.
Reset the speaker:
-
Turn It On
-
Put in Pairing Mode
-
If it doesn't automatically go into pairing mode, press and hold the Bluetooth button (the icon looks like a "B" with sharp angles) until the light starts blinking blue.
-
This means it's ready to connect to a device.
-
-
Connect Your Device
-
On your phone, tablet, or computer, go to Bluetooth settings.
-
Look for “Bose Mini SoundLink” in the list and tap to connect.
-
You should hear a voice prompt say “Connected to <device name>” if it succeeds.
-
-
Play Your Audio
-
Open a music app, podcast, or video and hit play.
-
Audio should come through the speaker.
-
-
Already Connected?
-
Bluetooth Already Paired to Something Else?
-
Still Not Working?
-
Hold the Power button for 10 seconds until it turns off.
-
Then turn it back on and try again.
