3.4 Non-networked mode
If a network connection is not possible or desired
for use, Zeppelin Wireless can be put in a non-
networked mode, limiting the inputs to Bluetooth
streaming and AUX input. To put Zeppelin Wireless
in non-networked mode:
• While Zeppelin Wireless is still waiting for
network set up (indicator pulsing green), press
the Play/Pause button.
• The indicator will immediately turn orange, and
the Bluetooth button will illuminate dim blue. If
a cable is connected to the AUX input, the AUX
button will also illuminate dim white.
Zeppelin Wireless is now in non-networked mode,
and can be used for Bluetooth and AUX input only.
To set up on a network via a wireless or wired
connection, reset Zeppelin Wirless as described in
section 7.
3.5 Bluetooth pairing and connecting
Note: Upon first use, Zeppelin Wireless will enter
network connection mode, with the indicator pulsing
green. It is recommended that Zeppelin Wireless is
connected to a network before pairing Bluetooth
devices. Refer to section 3.1 for network connection.
To begin using Bluetooth or AUX inputs, refer to
section 3.4.
Zeppelin Wireless can play Bluetooth audio streams
from any Bluetooth enabled mobile device, laptop or
desktop computer.
To connect Zeppelin Wireless to a Bluetooth enabled
audio source device it must first be paired with the
device as described below. Pairing is the Bluetooth
form of an introduction and up to 8 pairings can
be stored within Zeppelin Wireless for subsequent
reconnection. If a ninth device is paired, it will
automatically replace the oldest device previously
paired.
Note: Bluetooth is designed to have a relatively
limited connection range. A maximum of around
10 metres is typical in domestic environments.
Note: If your source device does not automatically
reconnect with Zeppelin Wireless you should reselect
your Zeppelin Wireless from the source device list of
available speakers.
• With Zeppelin Wireless switched on, touch
and hold its Bluetooth button for 2 seconds.
The Bluetooth button illumination will flash
and Zeppelin Wireless will enter pairing mode
accompanied by audible feedback.
Note: Zeppelin Wireless will automatically
exit from Bluetooth pairing mode if no device
is paired within 5 minutes. To exit pairing
mode manually touch the Zeppelin Wireless
Bluetooth button twice in quick succession.
• Open the Bluetooth settings on the audio
source device and switch Bluetooth on. After a
short delay, Zeppelin Wireless will be listed as
an available Bluetooth device. Select Zeppelin
Wireless and wait for visual confirmation in the
Bluetooth settings that pairing is complete and
that Zeppelin Wireless is connected. Zeppelin
Wireless will provide audible feedback when
the Bluetooth connection is established and
the Bluetooth indicator will turn blue.
Note: If your Bluetooth audio source device
requests a four digit code, enter 1234.
• Once a connection has been established,
ensure that Zeppelin Wireless is selected as
the speaker output.
To disconnect a Bluetooth source device from
Zeppelin Wireless touch the Zeppelin Wireless
Bluetooth button twice in quick succession. This will
disconnect all connected devices. Zeppelin Wireless
will provide audible feedback when Bluetooth is
disconnected and its Bluetooth indicator will dim.
Zeppelin Wireless will automatically connect to the
last connected audio source device if the two are
brought within range of one another, even if another
paired device is also within range. If connection to
another, previously paired audio source device is
required, go to the Bluetooth settings page of the
new device and select Zeppelin Wireless from the
list.
To remove a Bluetooth device from Zeppelin Wireless
"memory" perform a reset as described in section 7.
All paired Bluetooth devices will be deleted following
a reset.
4. Zeppelin Wireless sources
Zeppelin Wireless can receive audio from four
sources, and will automatically switch between
these sources on demand: AirPlay, Spotify Connect,
Bluetooth, and AUX input. Each of these is
described below.
4.1 AirPlay
Zeppelin Wireless can receive audio from Apple
products and iTunes on Windows via AirPlay
streaming. On iOS devices, a single AirPlay speaker
may be chosen for output. In iTunes on Mac OS and
Windows, multiple AirPlay speakers may be chosen
for multi-room playback. Simply start playing audio
from any AirPlay enabled device. Zeppelin Wireless
will switch to the most recent audio streaming device
that has initiated an audio stream.
Play/pause and volume change actions on Zeppelin
Wireless will be reflected on the AirPlay audio source
device user interface (UI).
4.2 Spotify Connect
Spotify Connect lets you play Spotify through your
home speakers or TV, using the Spotify app as
remote. You'll need a Spotify Premium account to
use Spotify Connect.
Step 1. Connect your device to the same Wi-Fi
network as your phone, tablet or PC running the
Spotify app.
Step 2. Open the Spotify app, and play any song.
Step 3. Tap the song image in the bottom left of the
screen.
Step 4. Tap the Connect icon
Step 5. Pick your Zeppelin Wireless from the list.

Spotify Connect please visit www.spotify.com/

4.3 Bluetooth
For any devices that have been paired with Zeppelin
Wireless as described in section 3.5, the Bluetooth
audio device must be reconnected to Zeppelin
Wireless to be able to stream via the Bluetooth
connection. Check the Bluetooth settings on the
audio source device to see if Zeppelin Wireless is
the active Bluetooth connection and, if not, make it
active.
Zeppelin Wireless will wake from sleep when a
connection is made, but will not switch from an
active stream to the Bluetooth audio device until
an audio stream is initiated on the Bluetooth audio
device.
Play/pause and volume change actions on Zeppelin
Wireless will be reflected on the Bluetooth audio
source device user interface (UI).
4.4 AUX input
Zeppelin Wireless includes an analogue 3.5mm
jack input socket for wired connection to audio
source devices that incorporate an analogue output.
Connect to the input socket using an appropriate
cable. Zeppelin Wireless will select its analogue input
automatically when a plug is inserted and deselect
the input when the plug is removed. When Zeppelin
Wireless is active on another source, it will detect
audio activity on the AUX input and switch to this
input automatically.
See Section 4.5 for more on Zeppelin Wireless input
switching.
If the analogue audio source connected to Zeppelin
Wireless has an output volume control, set it initially
to around half volume. Use the Zeppelin Wireless
buttons to control volume rather than the source
device volume controls. Only increase the source
volume if Zeppelin Wireless maximum volume is
inadequate.
4.5 Selecting Zeppelin Wireless Streams
and Inputs
Zeppelin Wireless will automatically play the most
recent stream or input signal. For example:
• If an AirPlay stream is playing and a Bluetooth
stream is received, Zeppelin Wireless will
switch to its Bluetooth input.
• If a Bluetooth stream is playing and a Spotify
Connect stream is received, Zeppelin Wireless
will switch to its Spotify Connect input.
• If a Spotify Connect stream is playing and an
AUX input plug is inserted or an audio signal
is detected on a previously inserted plug,
Zeppelin Wireless will switch to its AUX input.
• If an AUX input signal is playing and an AirPlay
stream is received, Zeppelin Wireless will
switch to its AirPlay input.
The only circumstances in which manual input
selection may be required is when an AUX input
signal is too quiet to be detected for automatic
switching. In these circumstances the AUX input
can be selected by touching the AUX input button.
If Zeppelin Wireless is playing a stream and it is
stopped or disconnected, Zeppelin Wireless will
either switch back to the previous playing stream
or input if it is still available, or remain silent until it
receives a new stream or input signal.
