  • If the buttons on your portable speaker are not working properly or are unresponsive while plugged into a power source, please try running the speaker on battery.

Be sure to use a power supply that has a rating equal to or greater than the amperage rating indicated in your product specs.

To ignore a call, tap and hold center button for 3 seconds until music resumes.

  • The BDS 280/580 or 280S/580S can upscale video signals from its internal drive to UHD format, both DVD and Blu-ray discs. The 280/580 or 280S/580S have pass-through function on the HDMI inputs. They will not upscale standard format or normal HD format video signals that are fed to the HDMI inputs of the 280/580 or 280S/580S. However, 4K or UHD video signals will pass through the BDS directly to the TV screen without processing, as will HD and SD format video. (Bear in mind that this high resolution makes it even more important to use high-quality HDMI cables, especially if they must be several meters long.)

  • Many newer routers with auto detect work really well. But if you experience issues with your product, we advise you to disable this feature and have two visible Wi-Fi networks (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz network).
