Consumer App: Understanding Your Device's LED Colors

Press the button briefly (1–2 seconds) to cycle through modes in this order:

The LED will flash to confirm the selected mode:

Press and hold the button on the device for 3–5 seconds.
The LED will start blinking green.
Open the Aura Air app and follow the pairing instructions.

* If the LED does not turn green, make sure the device is fully powered on and try holding the button again.
