Then the  Bluetooth Settings screen displays as follows. Note that our Bluetooth is active here. But our SRS X2 is currently OFF. So it cannot be in Bluetooth discovery mode. Thus it does not appear in the Other Devices list. Also, we don’t see it since we’ve never paired this speaker with our mobile device before.

5. Turn On your Sony SRS X2

So Turn on the SRS X2 by quickly pressing its  Power  button.

The speaker then powers up, and its status lamp glows green.

But since our iPad does not know about this speaker, the X2 will not pair with it automatically.

Then to see your Sony SRS X2 on your device, place it into Bluetooth discovery / pairing mode. So to do that, press and hold the Power-Pairing button. Release the button when the X2 makes two high beep sounds. Plus, the Pairing lamp starts fast flashing white.
