You can enable standby (low power) mode by deactivating Wi-Fi and clearing the Bluetooth® pairing list. Deactivating Wi-Fi will prevent the system from connecting to your network, as well as preventing the system from being controlled by the Bose Music app until it’s re-enabled.

Wi-Fi: Deactivate by pressing and holding the Play/Pause and Bluetooth buttons simultaneously for at least five seconds. Repeat to activate

Bluetooth: Deactivate by clearing the pairing list. To deactivate, press and hold the Bluetooth button for ten seconds. Activate by pairing with a Bluetooth source

Within 2.5 hours of deactivating the networks, the speaker will enter standby mode
