When you purchase an IRX108BT or IRX112BT the unit will power off by itself if it is idle for a few hours. The default status in the firmware is to go into standby mode automatically.

As of September 2023, from firmware V6.0 (IRX108 IRX112) JBL Professional has added a disable/enable function.
To disable auto-standby mode:
- Power the speaker on and then power it off again.
- When the speaker is OFF, press and hold the power button in for 5 seconds.
- If the power LED flashes on and off for 3 seconds, it means you have successfully disabled the auto power off function. (if it lights solid for three seconds it mean that auto-off has been enabled)
If this procedure does not work, it means the Firmware on the IRX is too old and you will need to book a JPRO Service Request to update the firmware. The Service Request is done by requesting a a JPRO SRA ticket via our online portal using the link on this page.
