USER(S)GUIDE &FLIGHT MANUAL
1. UNPACKING
The following User(s) Guide and Flight Manual provides instructions for the User on the proper operation
and usage of the Om One Levitating Blue Tooth Speaker system. Users should review this Manual
prior to using or operating the Om One Levitating Blue Tooth Speaker to ensure a safe and correct
operation of the product. Failure to follow the prescribed methods and instructions can lead to
a less rewarding experience.
The Om One comes with the following items:
• Om One Levitating Blue Tooth Speaker
• Om One Base Station
• 12VDC Power Source (AC Power Cord)
• Charging Base
• LED Charging Cable
• Users Guide
2. SETUP
The following instructions are provided for the proper setup and connection of the Om One Levitating Blue
Tooth Speaker to an Audio Source Device. The Om One Levitating Blue Tooth Speaker comes with Blue
Tooth version 4.0. It can be paired to any source device that has Blue Tooth connectivity.
• Power On: To power on the Speaker the User needs to place their thumb over the small opening at the
top of the Speaker. Place and hold your thumb over the opening for 3 seconds. When the Speaker
power’s on the narrator will say “Power On”.
• Pairing: Once the Speaker has been powered on it will automatically go into a pairing mode. Pairing is
the term used to describe the process the Speaker uses to identify available Blue Tooth sources.
Once the Speaker enters a pairing mode the narrator will say “Pairing”.
• Connecting: When the Om One identifies an available Blue Tooth source device, the User will need to
enter the source device Blue Tooth menu and look for the Om One as one of the available devices. The
User needs to select the Om One from the available device list. By selecting the Om One from the
available device list the User will cause the source device to go into the connection process. This is an
automatic process controlled by the source device. Once the Om One is connected to a source the Om
One will show on the available device list as “connected”. Now the Om One can receive audio inputs
from the source device. The User can go to the music library on the source device and select a track
from the menu. Once the User selects the track to play, it will play through the Om One Levitating Blue
Tooth Speaker.
• Audio Controls: When the Om One is connected to a source device the User can use the following Audio
Controls to control the audio output.
CONTROL LOCATION PURPOSE

3. BATTERY LIFE AND RECHARGING
LEVITATION
• Power Off: When powering off the Om One Levitating Blue Tooth Speaker the User needs to hold their
thumb over the small opening at the top of the Speaker for a period of 3 seconds. When the Speaker
powers off the narrator will say “Power Off”.
The Om One Levitating Blue Tooth Speaker comes with a rechargeable Lithium Ion Battery designed to
provide continuous playback for a period of 12 hours or more depending on playing conditions. The battery
also has a “Stand-By Mode” for when the speaker is not playing (but the power is on) for a period of 48
hours. When the battery level reaches approximately 20% the narrator will say “Battery Low”. The narrator
will repeat this message at 15%, 10% and 5% of the battery level. When the battery level reaches 0% the
narrator will say “Battery Low / Power Off”. The Om One Speaker will power off automatically when the
battery reaches 0%. If you are not sure how much battery life there is remaining, you can check the source
device. There is a small battery level indicator displayed on the device when the speaker is paired to it.
To recharge the battery the User needs to connect the Om One Speaker to a USB source using the LED
Charging Cable and Charging Base provided. The Om One Base Station has a USB output so that the
speaker can be charged by connecting the LED Charging Cable and Charging Base to the Base Station but
any USB outlet will work. To charge the speaker follow the instructions below.
• Connect the LED Charging Cable to a USB outlet. There is a USB outlet provided on the Om One Base
Station but any USB outlet will work.
• Connect the opposite end of the LED Charging Cable to the Charging Base.
• Place the Om One Speaker onto the Charging Base. Once the Speaker is placed on the Charging Base
the LED Charging Cable will light up. There will be a stream or flow of LED’s from the USB source to the
Charging Base. Depending on the amount of charge necessary the LED’s will stream or flow very quickly
towards to Charging Base. As the Speaker becomes more and more charged the stream or flow will
slow down.
• Once the Speaker is fully charged the LED stream or flow will stop. When the stream or flow stops, the
Speaker will be charged to 100%.
The following pictures and instructions are provided as a guide for the User to learn to fly or levitate
the Om One Speaker. Before attempting to fly or levitate the speaker the User needs to be aware of
a few facts.
1. Flight or levitation of the speaker is possible through the use of opposing magnetic fields. The User
should use caution when holding the speaker to make sure fingers or hands do not become trapped
between the opposing fields. If the speaker is unstable in the fields it will crash into the Base Station
and fingers or hands trapped underneath will be pinched.
2. The Base Station must be plugged into an AC Source for levitation to be possible.
3. Crashing the Speaker into the Base Station is not a good thing. We understand that in some cases it
cannot be avoided, but the User should try to take care to limit this from happening.
4. The key to levitation is patience. It will take most people several tries before they master the skill. If you
do not get it on the first try do not give up. Keep trying and eventually you will get the feel for it and be
able to do it repeatedly with very little effort.
STEP #1: Connect the Base Station to an AC Source using the AC Power Cable provided.
Plug this end into here. Plug this end into here.
PORTABILITY & RANGE
STEP #2: Hold the Speaker with both hands as shown
Hold it like this. Don’t hold it like this.
STEP #3: Hold the Speaker over the center of the Base Station as shown. When the Speaker is in the
center of the Base Station the blue LED Logo will light up.
Look for the blue LED to light up.
STEP #4: Slowly lower the Speaker down towards the Base Station. You will start to feel the pull of the
magnets. Do not let the speaker go. Continue to “feel” for the spot where the magnets take over. In some
cases depending on the amount of force you are holding the speaker, you may feel a slight vibration on the
speaker. Do not be alarmed. This is normal and can be used as a guide to tell you when you are in the
sweet spot.
Lower the Speaker down until you feel the magnets take over.
The Om One Levitating Blue Tooth Speaker is portable. It does not have to be levitating above the Base
Station to play audio output. You can take it out to a party or picnic and it will provide hours of audio
playback provided the battery has a sufficient charge.
The range on the Blue Tooth module is approximately 10 meters. If the source device moves out of range
the playback will stop. If this happens you may have to reconnect the Speaker to the source device,
through the source device Blue Tooth menu. If the source device is only out of range for a few seconds the
source device should reconnect automatically.
Step #5: Gradually release pressure on the speaker and feel for the spot where the magnets take over.
There is a point where you will feel the speaker start to float or levitate on its own. When you reach this
point you should be able to remove your hands and the speaker will levitate on its own. As the speaker
levitates, the positioning magnets will hold it in place and the speaker will start to rotate on its own.
Gradually let go and the Speaker will start to float.
Congratulations you have just completed flight training. You might want to practice several times once
you have got the speaker to levitate. It will help you to remember the necessary feel to getting the speaker
to float.

STEREO PAIRING INSTRUCTIONS
SAFETY STUFF
Now you are about to learn something really cool about the Om One Levitating Blue Tooth Speaker. If you
have two of them they can be paired together so they will play in a mode called “True Wireless Stereo”. To
pair them together in this mode you will need to follow these instructions.
• First you need to pair one of the Speakers to a source device as described in the “Setup” section of this
User(s) Guide.
• Once you have one of the Speakers paired to the source device you need to shut off the Blue Tooth
controls on the source device. Usually there is a small switch on the source device in the Blue Tooth
menu that shuts off the Blue Tooth controls. Don’t worry, when you come back and turn these controls
back on the Om One will still be one of the available devices.
• When the Blue Tooth controls are shut off the Om One Speaker will go back to the pairing mode.
Take the Speaker in your hand and shake it from left to right one time. You will hear a ring tone
from the Speaker.
• Now turn on the second Speaker. Follow the instructions in the “Setup” section of this User(s) Guide to
turn the unit on. When you hear the narrator say “Power On” “ Pairing”, shake the Speaker from left to
right one time. You will hear the same ring tone as before. You may hear the ring tone a few times from
both Speakers as they search for each other. Try to hold the Speakers a few inches from each other
during this process so they can find each other.
• After a few ring tones the Speakers will find each other. When they do the narrator will say “Left
Speaker” from the Speaker you first paired to the source device. And from the second Speaker the
narrator will say “Right Speaker”. Now the two Speakers are paired together.
• After the two Speakers are paired together, you will need to go back to the source device and turn the
Blue Tooth controls back on. When they are turned back on you need to locate the Om One on the list
of available devices and select it again so that the source reconnects to it.
• When the source device reconnects to the Om One you can start to play audio output from the source
device just as before, except now the two Om One Speakers will play in stereo (left and right channels).
• There will also be a battery level indicator on the source device showing the battery level of the Om One.
This indicator only indicates the battery level on the left speaker. There is no battery level indication for
the right speaker, however if the right speaker reaches a 20% battery level the narrator on the right
speaker will say “battery low”. This message will be repeated for every 5% of battery level remaining just
as before in the section for battery life and recharging.
Here is all the legal mumbo-jumbo about electrical safety.
1. Do not take the Base Station into the bathtub with you when it is plugged in. That would be bad for you
and the Base Station.
2. Do not take the Speaker into the bathtub with you. It is not designed to go swimming and will not work
too good if it fills up with water.
3. Do not put the speaker in the oven. It is not made to be used in extreme temperatures.
4. Try not to drop the speaker from a height greater than 48”. It might not work too well if it is repeatedly
dropped from high places.
5. The Base Station electronics actually run off of a 12VDC supply. Please only use the power cord we
have provided. Using an alternative power cord may damage the Base Station and prevent the
Levitation Circuits from working. If you lose the power cord please contact us and we will be happy to
send you a new one.
Legal Stuff: We are required to tell you this stuff or the lawyers will have a tantrum.
