- Turn on the Creative T100 by pressing the power button. The device should enter pairing mode automatically, indicated by a blinking LED light.
- Make sure your mobile device is within close range, ideally within 10 meters (33 feet).
Pairing Your Creative T100 with a Mobile Device
Follow these simple steps to pair your device:
- Open the Bluetooth settings on your mobile device.
- Scan for available devices. Your Creative T100 should appear as “Creative T100” or a similar name.
- Select the Creative T100 from the list of available devices.
- If prompted, enter the default pairing code “0000” or “1234”.
- Once connected, the LED indicator on the T100 will turn solid or stop blinking.
