Note: When the system is not playing music it will go automatically
into auto standby mode. To reactivate the system, simply start
playing music and the system will resume automatically. A slight

resynchronization with the primary speaker. During this phase the front
LED of the secondary speaker will be blinking.

will need to be manually powered on first to resume playing music.
The system also features sound prompt commands for the following
action / operation
1. Power On
2. Power Off
3. Bluetooth pairing mode
4. Bluetooth connection success
5. Association mode (see Speaker association section)
