CS533 User Manual Troubleshooting Overview Operation problems can be due to a variety of causes. The first step in solving them is to make sure that all cables are securely attached and seated completely in their sockets. In addition, updating the product’s firmware may solve problems that have been discovered and resolved since the prior version was released. If your product is not running the latest firmware version, we strongly recommend that you upgrade.
Appendix Symptom Bluetooth won’t connect or pair with my mobile device. Possible Cause Bluetooth is not in sync with your mobile device. Action The best way to resolve any Bluetooth connectivity issue is to clear the Bluetooth connection (see Clear Bluetooth Pairing, page 12), and re-connect Bluetooth (see Connecting Bluetooth, page 6). Another possibility is that the mobile device is placed too far from the CS533 to establish a connection, or Bluetooth is not turned on from your device.
