How To Pair Sylvania Bluetooth Speaker? (Pairing Tips)

Sylvania produces some of the most innovative Bluetooth speakers. Some speakers from the manufacturer have integrated LED lights that can be used during a power outage. Thus, some models, like the Bluetooth Moonlight Speaker (SP136), function as speakers and emergency lights. I purchased the speaker for this reason and because they have a quality sound. 

The manufacturer has multiple models, and some come in pairs making it hard for users to learn how to operate them adequately. Therefore, this article will show you how to get various models of Sylvania Bluetooth speakers in pairing mode and connect them to various devices. 

How To Pair Sylvania Bluetooth Speaker


Key Takeaways

  • Sylvania has a wide variety of Bluetooth speakers. They come in different models, and some have unique operating methods.
  • However, all Sylvania Bluetooth speakers will automatically go into pairing mode when you turn them on for the first time.
  • If you have a model that comes with a pair of speakers like the Rock Bluetooth Outdoor speaker (SP247-B), turn both speakers on and wait for them to pair before attempting to pair a source device to the speakers.
  • Some models have a mode button (labeled M), while others have a multifunction button that you can use to get the speaker in pairing mode. 
  • Before using the speaker, ensure it is adequately charged to avoid connection issues.
  • Ensure the speaker and source device are within ten meters or thirty-three feet of each other when pairing them.
  • If the speaker was previously paired to a source device, it will automatically connect to that device the next time you power it. That is assuming Bluetooth on the source device is on and in range.
  • If prompted for a PIN by the source device when pairing to a Sylvania speaker, use 0000.

The speakers will pair within ten seconds, and the Bluetooth LED on the primary speaker will flash while the one on the secondary speaker will be solid Blue.

If the speakers do not pair, double-press the power button on one of them, and they will attempt to connect again. 

You can also double-press the power button on one of the speakers to disconnect them.

General Overview

The power button on Sylvania speakers can be a button or a switch. If it is a button, press and hold it for three to five seconds, and the speaker will turn on and go into pairing mode.

Sylvania speakers with a button labeled M use that button to get into pairing mode. You repeatedly press the M button until the Blue LED starts flashing to show the speaker is ready to pair. 

Some models have a Bluetooth button that is labeled by the Bluetooth logo. Press and hold this button until the Bluetooth LED flashes to get such speakers in pairing mode.

Some models do not have an M or Bluetooth button, but the Play/Pause button works as a Bluetooth button. When you power on such speakers for the first time, they automatically go into pairing mode. 

If the speaker is already connected to a source device and you want to put it in pairing mode, press and hold the Play/Pause button for five seconds, and the blue LED will start flashing.

Some models, especially the older ones, do not have a button to force the speaker into pairing mode. Instead, you turn off Bluetooth on the source device to disconnect the speaker and have it in pairing mode. 

If you have a speaker model that comes as a pair, the speakers will automatically pair with each other within seconds of turning them on. Once they are connected, they will appear as one speaker on your source device.

A flashing Blue LED indicates that the speakers are in pairing mode, while a solid Blue LED means the speaker is connected to a device.

To complete connecting the speakers to a source device, open Settings and go to Bluetooth or connectivity settings, search for the speaker and select it. If prompted for a PIN, enter 0000. 

The speaker’s name will be Sylvania, followed by the speaker’s model name, for instance, ‘Sylvania SP136.’

However, some models will only show the model name without the word Sylvania. 

Instructions on enabling Bluetooth connectivity on various Operating Systems like Android, iOS, macOS, and Windows are available on their respective websites.
