User's Manual

Pairing is the set-up process to introduce your Bluetooth-capable device to the iBT280. Once your device is paired,
the iBT280 can recognize it and you can play your audio through it.
1. Turn on your Bluetooth device and make it “discoverable” by turning on Bluetooth mode (check in
Options or Settings).
2. Press and release the
Power Button to turn on the iBT280. The first time the unit is powered
on, it will enter auto-pairing mode: the unit will beep and the Bluetooth status indicator light on
top of the unit will flash quickly while the unit attempts to pair. (If Color Mode is on, the cabinet
lights will flash blue and red.) “iHome iBT280” should appear in your device’s Bluetooth menu.
3. Select “iHome iBT280” on device to begin/complete pairing. If prompted for a passcode, enter
“1234” on your device’s keypad. 1 beep will sound and the Bluetooth status indicator light will appear
solid blue (in Color Mode, cabinet will flash blue twice), indicating the iBT280 is paired and ready
to play music. There should also be an indication on your device. If no device is successfully paired
within 3 minutes the iBT280 will default to previous mode.
Manual Pairing
To pair with a different device or at a different time:
1. Make sure unit is powered on.
2. Press and hold the BluetoothPairing Button for 2 seconds.
3. Select “iHome iBT280” on device to pair.
Once the iBT280 is paired to a device, it will attempt to autolink when the unit is turned on and
when the device is within range (about 33 feet).
