Troubleshooting

Problem	Solution
Speaker won't turn on.	Ensure the speaker is fully charged. Connect it to a power source using the USB cable and allow it to charge for at least 30 minutes before attempting to power on again.
Cannot pair with device.	Make sure the speaker is in pairing mode (flashing Bluetooth indicator). Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your device. Move the speaker closer to your device (within 30 feet). Turn off and on both the speaker and your device's Bluetooth. If previously paired, try "forgetting" or "unpairing" the speaker from your device's Bluetooth list and then re-pairing.
No sound or poor sound quality.	Check the volume levels on both the speaker and your connected device. Ensure the speaker is properly paired and connected to your device. Move the speaker closer to your device to avoid interference. Try playing audio from a different application or device to rule out source issues. Ensure no other Bluetooth devices are interfering with the connection.
Speakerphone not working.	Ensure the speaker is connected to your phone via Bluetooth. Check your phone's audio output settings during a call to ensure it's routed to the Bluetooth speaker. Ensure the speaker's microphone is not obstructed.
