TREBLAB HD-Force can remember up to 6 recently paired devices.
True Wireless Stereo (TWS)
The TWS technology allows you to use two speakers paired wirelessly to create a wireless dual-channel system, delivering a true stereo sound effect. While using this function, one speaker (Master, left channel) is paired with a source device, and the other (Slave, right channel) speaker is paired with the Master speaker.
- Make sure that both speakers are ON, in Wireless mode, and not connected to any source device.
- Double-press the POWER button on both speakers to enter the TWS mode. You will hear the sound prompt, and both speakers’ state indicators will start flashing BLUE and GREEN.
- Once the speakers are paired in TWS, you will hear the sound prompt, and one of the speakers’ state indicators will start flashing BLUE slowly. This will be the Master speaker.
- The other speaker’s state indicator will turn BLUE. This will be the Slave speaker.
- Enable Bluetooth on the source device and select TREBLAB HD-Force from the Bluetooth devices list.
- If prompted to connect by your device, select Yes.
- If requested a passcode, enter 0000. Now you can use the speakers in stereo mode.
- Kindly note that the maximum distance between speakers should not exceed 33 feet / 10 meters.
There are a few ways to disable the TWS function.
- When the speakers are connected to the source device, press the VOLUME + and the VOLUME – buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds on the Master speaker.r
- The connection with the source device will be interrupted, but the speakers will remain in the TWS mode. This way, you can connect another source device.
- When the speakers are connected to the source device, press the VOLUME + and the VOLUME – buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds on the Slave speaker – the Master speaker remains connected to the source device, but the Slave speaker will disconnect and enter the pairing mode.
- When the speakers are NOT connected to the source device, press the VOLUME + and the VOLUME – buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds on either speaker – the TWS connection between them will be interrupted.

Charging

To charge the speaker, plug one end of the supplied cable into the TYPE-C charging port under the rubber cover on the back of the speaker. Plug the other end of the charging cable into a standard USB port. It takes up to 4-5 hours to fully charge.
Once plugged in, the battery level indicators will start flashing slowly, showing the current battery level (for more details, please check the BATTERY LEVEL INDICATION section). This means that the speaker is charging. When the speaker is fully charged, all three battery level indicators will stop flashing and become steady.
Battery Level Indication
The HD-Force speaker is equipped with the battery level indicators – LEDs. The current charge level is displayed when the speaker is ON and when the speaker is used as a power bank in the OFF state.
- Charge level is between 0% and 30%: one LED is ON (flashing during the speaker charging or in the power bank mode).
- Charge level is between 30% and 70%: two LEDs are ON (flashing during the speaker charging or in the power bank mode).
- Charge level is between 70% and 100%: three LEDs are ON (flashing during the speaker charging or in the power bank mode).
Power Bank Mode
TREBLAB HD-Force inbuilt battery can be used as a power bank to charge your smartphone or tablet.
- Connect your device to the speaker by plugging your device’s charging cable into the USB 2.0 output port under the rubber cover on the back of the speaker. If the speaker is in the other FF state, press the POWER button to start charging.
- In case the speaker is ON, it will start charging instantly after you connect the device to the USB 2.0 output port. There is no indication signal when the smart device is fully charged. Please pay attention to your device’s battery charge indicator during the charging time.
