Gives the JBL Clip 2 pairing procedure. This works when pairing with the iPhone, iPod Touch, and the iPad line of Apple phones, media players, and tablets. But like routines work for Android devices too.

JBL Clip 2 Pairing: Step by Step

Begin with your JBL Clip 2 powered off (power button is dark). Then run through this directions to pair it to your source device. We pair here with an iPad Air tablet.

1. Get to the Home Screen on your Phone or Tablet

Firstly, press the Home button to reveal the mobile iOS device’s Home screen.

2. Find the  Settings  App

We found ours on the second page of the iOS home screen.

3. Bring up the Settings App

Then tap the  Settings   app icon.

The device then shows the first page of its  Settings   page.

4. Go to Bluetooth Settings to Continue with JBL Clip 2 Pairing

Note that Bluetooth is running here. But the JBL Clip 2 is OFF right now. So it is not in Bluetooth discovery mode. Thus it does not show up yet. Also, we don’t see it since we’ve never paired it with this tablet before.

5. Turn On your JBL Clip 2

Power up the 2 by fast pressing its  Power  button.

The speaker then powers up, and its status lamp blinks blue.  This means that it’s ready to receive a Bluetooth connection request.

But since our tablet does not know about this speaker, the Clip 2 will not pair with it automatically.

6. Put It into Bluetooth Pairing Mode

Then, to see your Clip 2 on your iOS device, place it into Bluetooth discovery mode first. To do that, press and release the Bluetooth button.

The -Bluetooth- button.

When you press the Bluetooth Discovery Mode button, the Clip 2 makes a repeating single pluck guitar sound. Also, the status lamp changes to a fast flashing blue.
