Intermittent audio from product

When in multipoint, a secondary Bluetooth device could possibly receive a text/email notification and try to broadcast audio to your product. This could interrupt the primary Bluetooth connection/audio stream which effects Bluetooth bandwidth, causing intermittent audio or sporadic Bluetooth connections.

To eliminate any interruptions, we recommend turning off Bluetooth on your secondary device which is connected to your Bose product.

An error may have occurred while creating the group. End the group and try re-grouping the products again.

Your Bose product remembers the last several devices it connected to so it can quickly reconnect to them. In case there is an issue with the device memory, clear it and then try to reconnect the device. For more information, see Clearing the product memory of paired Bluetooth devices and Connecting a Bluetooth device.

In the Bluetooth menu of the Bluetooth device, you'll find a list of Bluetooth products that have been previously connected. Your Bose product might show up one or more times in the list (i.e. it might be listed a second time with "LE-" in the name). Select each entry for your product and remove it by selecting Forget, Unpair, Delete or something similar. After, try connecting again. For more information, see Connecting a Bluetooth device.

On a computer, visit btu.bose.com and follow the instructions to ensure your product has the latest features and enhancements. See Updating the software or firmware of your product.

This range can be reduced by obstacles (e.g. walls, doors, appliances, other wireless devices, etc.). Try moving the device and product closer together.

A weak connection to the cell service could cause poor audio quality while on a call. Try the call again when the reception improves.

Different media types might produce different quality sound. For example, Podcasts, music stored locally on your phone, MP3s, streaming music services (Spotify, Pandora), videos on your device or stored in the cloud, etc. can all vary in quality. Try different media to determine if the issue is specific to certain media.

If the issue only occurs with a particular app, it is likely related to the app or app settings.

Much like rebooting a smartphone, your product might need to be reset on occasion to correct minor issues. For more info, see Resetting your product.

If your Bose product can connect to another device, Bluetooth functionality is working. In cases like this, the issue could be with the first device or its settings.

Some wireless devices can cause interference with a Bluetooth signal.
Common examples include:

• 2.4 GHz router
• cordless phone
• wireless speaker adapters
• home security motion sensors
• fluorescent lights
• microwaves
• wireless mice and keyboards

If there are such devices, disconnect one at a time and check if the issue improves. If so, consider relocating your product or the device.
