Manufacturer-documented Reviewed 2026-11-09 · Revision 1
Follow these checks in Audio Fix →When this guide applies
Known standby with mains connected; no unplug/replug cycle.
Connection scope: Bluetooth. Symptom: Power-on or automatic standby isn’t working.
This is a documented check, not a diagnosis of your equipment. The model name does not confirm the selected input, mode, software or connected partner.
If your exact model or a required setting is unknown, use the “I don’t know” branch below. Do not apply a similarly named model’s instructions.
Checks and possible outcomes
Start at step-0. Follow the link that matches what you actually observe. Alternative branches are not a single sequence of actions.
step-0
Is mains connected and Deep Standby the known state?
An unlit LED could also mean disconnected power; do not guess during an update.
Look for: Confirm the stated prerequisite or observation; unknown is not a fault diagnosis.
- If Yes / this check is completed → Is the speaker idle with no active playback?
- If No / this cannot be confirmed → Keep the observation for manufacturer support
- If I do not know / cannot check → A required observation is unknown

step-1
Is the speaker idle with no active playback?
This is a standby wake check, not interruption of a running stream.
Look for: Confirm the stated prerequisite or observation; unknown is not a fault diagnosis.
- If Yes / this check is completed → Briefly operate a top-panel control
- If No / this cannot be confirmed → Keep the observation for manufacturer support
- If I do not know / cannot check → A required observation is unknown

step-2
Briefly operate a top-panel control
Any button can wake Deep Standby. Do not hold Play/Pause for five seconds; that requests Deep Standby instead.
Look for: Perform only the stated check, then confirm whether it could be completed.
- If Yes / this check is completed → Does the speaker wake and expose normal controls?
- If No / this cannot be confirmed → Keep the observation for manufacturer support
- If I do not know / cannot check → A required observation is unknown

step-3
Does the speaker wake and expose normal controls?
Reconnect the intended source separately; wake does not prove a media route.
Look for: Confirm the stated prerequisite or observation; unknown is not a fault diagnosis.
