The word 'Bluetooth' originated in Denmark at the end of the first millennium. The then Danish King, Harald Blatand, united the warring tribes of his land to become the most powerful ruler of Scandinavia. In the same spirit, the object of this new wireless protocol was to unite separate devices harmoniously. The Bluetooth protocol is simple and low cost but global and powerful.

The technology uses radio waves for connecting and exchanging information with other devices. The range is short, around 10 meters and applies to a broad range of devices; cell phones, speakers, MP3 players, cameras, printers etc and expanding rapidly.

Today, almost all laptops, handhelds and mobile phones have built in Bluetooth chips. However, desktop PCs, mostly, do not have Bluetooth incorporated in them.

Switch on the computer/cell phone then select or switch on the Bluetooth device on your hardware. The computer will automatically recognize the device and prompt a confirmation. Now, turn on the speaker and press and hold down the Bluetooth button for a few seconds. The Bluetooth light will start flashing and the device will search for other Bluetooth devices in its range to connect to. The computer/cell phone will show a list of available devices usually by their model number. Select your speakers. You will now be asked to input a PIN number or PASSWORD. It is '0000' or '1234' by default for most of the Bluetooth devices (if this does not work, refer to the speakers' user manual or visit the manufacturer's website). Once the password is accepted the pairing is complete. The indicator on your speaker will flash quickly confirming that it is connected. And you can immediately play your audio and enjoy the sound over wireless Bluetooth technology.
