Bluetooth mode. Open Bluetooth on your source device such as your smartphone or computer and search/scan

for “Como Audio Blu”, then pair and connect on your phone. Once you’ve paired you shouldn’t need to do it

again. If your source device prompts you to enter a passcode, enter “0000”. The Blu’s ﬂashing blue LEDs will

change to steady blue once connected to your source device. Adjust your source device’s volume (if available)

as desired. Como Blu will remember up to ﬁve paired devices.
