Make sure your Bluetooth source

device and the V5BT are both

turned on and the Bluetooth

mode is selected as the source

on your V5BT.

Press the setup button on the

rear of your V5BT

(Figure 1) until

the Bluetooth source indicator

blinks amber once every second

(Figure 2). This will place the

V5BT into “discoverable”

mode.

In the Bluetooth control section

of your source device, place the

source device into “discovery”

mode. V5BT14_xxxxxx should

appear on the list of devices that

can be paired.

Pairing occurs when two Bluetooth devices “communicate” with each other and create a

connection. The Wren V5BT can “remember” the last six Bluetooth devices that have

paired with it. For best results, have your Bluetooth source device near your V5BT.

Note: Your V5BT will automatically enter pairing mode the ﬁrst time you plug it in. The following

directions are for all subsequent pairings. If you are setting up the speaker for the ﬁrst time, start

with step 3 below.

To pair additional devices with

your V5BT, simply follow the

instructions under “Pairing with

your V5BT” on pages 8-9.

When the Power button is pressed

to turn the speaker on from Sleep

or Standby mode, the V5BT will

look for the most recently paired

device that was connected to the

speaker. If that device is available,

the V5BT will reconnect to it. If the

last paired device is not available,

the V5BT will continue to search

for the next most recently paired

device. It will connect with the

most recently paired device that

it ﬁnds.

When you wish to connect to a

speciﬁc paired device, press and

hold the Source button on the

front of the speaker for three (3)

seconds. The Bluetooth indicator

will blink amber two times per

second indicating that the V5BT

is trying to connect to a paired

device. Select V5BT14 on the

source device. The Bluetooth

indicator will change to solid

blue when an active connection

is established

(Figure 5).

Many households (and many individuals) have multiple Bluetooth-equipped devices that

they use for music. The Wren V5BT can “remember” pairings with up to six dierent

Bluetooth devices, eliminating the need to go through the initial pairing process every

time you switch devices.

To clear the V5BT’s memory

of all paired devices, press and

hold the Setup button on the

rear of your V5BT and, while

holding the Setup button, press

the Power button on the front

control panel. The Volume

indicator will blink amber

two times to indicate that the

memory has been cleared. When

the V5BT is powered on again,

it will be in pairing mode and

ready to pair with a Bluetooth

device (see “Pairing with your

V5BT” on pages 8-9).

Note:After you have cleared your

V5BT’s memory, you must delete

the Wren speaker from your source

device’s list of available Bluetooth

devices before you can pair it

with the V5BT again. To delete

a previously paired Wren V5BT

from your source device’s memory,

follow the directions provided by

the manufacturer.

As with all Bluetooth pairings with audio devices, the volume control of your

Wren V5BT functions as a “master” volume control. That means that the

volume control on the V5BT governs how loud your music can play. Once you

have set the volume level on the V5BT, the volume control on your source

device allows you to play music ranging from very low to as high as your V5BT

“master” volume setting allows.. For best results, we suggest setting the master

volume control on the V5BT at or near maximum volume. The best way to

determine where to set the volume on the V5BT is to use the following steps:

• Set the volume control on the V5BT at about half of maximum.

• Set the volume control on your source device at or just below maximum.

• Play music that you are familiar with.

• Raise the volume control on the V5BT in small steps until it is as loud as you

think you will want it to play.

• Turn the volume down on your source device. You will ﬁnd that it goes from

the peak loudness you established all the way down through medium to

soft to inaudible.

• You can now use your source device to play music from very low to as

loud you have set the V5BT to play. This enables you to manage volume

remotely using your source device.

How Does Bluetooth Work?

Bluetooth wireless technology is a small-area networking protocol that removes

the need for user intervention and keeps transmission power extremely low to

save battery power. Because it is ecient and easy to use, Bluetooth wireless

technology has been widely adopted as the most popular (and familiar) way

to enable devices like smartphones, tablets, and computers to connect to and

communicate with other popular devices like audio headsets and speakers—all

without cumbersome wires. The low power limits the range of a Bluetooth device

to about 10 meters (32 feet), cutting the chances of interference between your

computer system and your portable telephone or television. Even with the low

power, Bluetooth doesn’t require line of sight between communicating devices.

The walls in your house won’t stop a Bluetooth signal. And because Bluetooth

operates by making only one connection to one device at a time, it is free from

interference and “confusion” among various Bluetooth-enabled devices.

aptX works within Bluetooth to deliver CD-quality audio over a Bluetooth wireless

connection. Simply establish a Bluetooth connection between your aptX-enabled

smartphone or tablet and your V5BT and experience high ﬁdelity wireless audio.

aptX works automatically: If your source device is equipped with aptX, it will

automatically detect an aptX-equipped receiving device (like the Wren V5BT) and

you will enjoy CD-quality sound. If your source device does not have aptX, the V5BT

will default to standard Bluetooth audio.

It is important to note that aptX needs to be supported on both sides of the

Bluetooth connection. To determine if a Bluetooth-enabled device supports aptX,

just look for the aptX logo on the product’s packaging:

For an up-to-date list of devices equipped with aptX, go to the “Support” page on the Wren

website (www.wrensound.com/support), select “V5BT14” from the drop-down menu, and click

on the “aptX Compatibility” button.

Add a second Wren speaker to

create a room-ﬁlling stereo pair!

CSR TrueWireless Stereo is a breakthrough in Bluetooth technology that

enables you to combine two V5BT speakers to create a genuine stereo pair with

discrete signals for the right and left channels as in a traditional Hi-Fi setup.

The result is a case where the combination of one + one is far greater than

two. You’ll get much more powerful bass, much more volume, a much bigger

stereo image, and more detailed, lifelike sound. It’s essentially like playing music

through a larger traditional Hi-Fi system, but without the bulk of CD players,

ampliﬁers or receivers, interconnecting cables, and a jumble of speaker wire.

How It Works

CSR’s TrueWireless Stereo technology is based on

the use of two Bluetooth devices, one as the right channel (the “control

speaker”) and the other as the left channel. The control of the music from

the source device is supported on the right speaker, which then relays the

audio stream to the left speaker. This allows the product to work with any

Bluetooth audio device already on the market. Audio is streamed from

the audio source to the right channel and is relayed to the left channel

using CSR’s proprietary synchronization protocol, resulting in truly

wireless stereo sound from the V5BT speakers. This technology is further

enhanced by Wren’s proprietary DSP technology that adjusts the signal

for each channel to create an accurate stereo image.

If you have previously paired your

device with either speaker, we

recommend un-pairing your device

from the speakers by selecting “Forget

this Device” or “Drop Device” on your

source device’s Bluetooth menu.

Place the V5BT speakers as you would

a stereo pair. Ideally, the speakers

should be about as far apart from

each other as the listening area will

be from each speaker, as in the

illustration on the following page.

Connect each speaker to a power

outlet and turn power on.

On the right speaker, simultaneously

press the Source button and the Volume

Up (+) button. The Bluetooth indicator

will begin ﬂashing blue.

On the left speaker, simultaneously

press the Source button and the

Volume Down (-) button. The Bluetooth

indicator will begin ﬂashing blue.

The right and left speaker will connect

to each other; this may take up to

15 seconds. When the speakers are

connected the Aux indicators on both

speakers will turn solid white and the

left speaker’s Bluetooth indicator

with be solid blue. The right speaker’s

Bluetooth indicator should be blinking

amber, indicating the system is ready

to pair to your source device.

In the Bluetooth control section of

your source device, select “discovery”

mode. The right speaker’s ID, “Wren

V5BT14_xxxxxx,” should appear on

the list of devices that can be paired.

Setup Once you have two Wren V5BT speakers, TrueWireless Stereo setup is easy.

Just follow the steps on the pages 15-17:

TrueWireless Stereo setup when it is

already in TrueWireless Stereo mode,

press and hold the Setup button

on the back of the right speaker

until the Bluetooth indicator ﬂashes

amber and follow the instructions on

pages 8-9, “Pairing with Your V5BT,”

beginning with step 3. Once you are

paired and connected to the new

source device, the right speaker’s

Bluetooth indicator will turn solid

blue and its Aux indicator will remain

solid white.

Select “Wren V5BT14_xxxxxx.” If your

source device asks for a passkey, enter

“0000” (four zeros) and press “OK.”

The Bluetooth indicator on the right

speaker will blink amber two times

per second when pairing is in process;

when connected, the Bluetooth

indicator will turn solid blue and the

Aux indicator will be solid white. You

are now in TrueWireless Stereo mode.

Using TrueWireless Stereo Once you have established a TrueWireless

Stereo connection between your right and left speakers, you are ready to enjoy big,

bold stereo sound. Here’s how it works:

To play music, simply select the

right speaker from your device’s

speaker selector and begin

streaming music from any source

on your device. You will notice that

the left speaker does not appear

in your source device’s speaker

selector: that’s because it is already

paired with the right speaker and

will accept a Bluetooth signal from

the right speaker only.

You can balance the output of

each speaker relative to your

listening position by using each

speaker’s volume control. This is

especially useful if your listening

area is closer to one speaker than

to the other. If you are about the

same distance from each speaker,

you will probably want to turn

each to maximum volume and

use your source device to adjust

the overall volume of the system.

(See “Important Note on Volume

Control” on page 12.)

Your speakers will remain in

TrueWireless Stereo mode until they

are disengaged. Even when they

enter “sleep” (power saving) mode,

they will remain in TrueWireless

Stereo mode and will operate in that

mode when they wake up.

To disengage the TrueWireless Stereo

mode and use your Wren V5BTs as

individual speakers, press and hold

the Power button for 7 seconds until

the speaker turns o. When you turn

on the speaker it will no longer be in

TrueWireless Stereo mode. Be sure

to do this to both speakers when

you want to disengage from

TrueWireless mode.

If you unplug your speakers to

move them to another location or

lose power for any other reason,

TrueWireless Stereo mode will be

disengaged and the speakers will

default to the original individual

speaker mode.
