Maintenance
Waterproof Care (IPX7)
The Soundcore Motion B is IPX7 rated, meaning it can be submerged in up to 1 meter of water for 30 minutes. To maintain its waterproof integrity:
- Ensure the charging port cover is securely closed before exposing the speaker to water.
- Do not expose the speaker to saltwater or other chemicals, as this may damage the seals.
- After exposure to water, especially chlorinated or saltwater, rinse the speaker with fresh water and dry it thoroughly before charging or using the ports.
Cleaning and Storage
- Clean the speaker with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Store the speaker in a cool, dry place away from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight.
- If storing for an extended period, charge the battery every 3 months to prolong its lifespan.
Troubleshooting
No Power
- Ensure the speaker is fully charged. Connect it to a power source using the Micro USB cable.
- Press and hold the power button for at least 3 seconds to ensure it's not just a short press.
Cannot Pair via Bluetooth

- Make sure Bluetooth is enabled on your device and it is within 33 feet (10 meters) of the speaker.
- Try forgetting "Soundcore Motion B" from your device's Bluetooth list and re-pairing.
- Restart both the speaker and your Bluetooth device.
Poor Sound Quality or Distortion
- Ensure the speaker and your device are within range and there are no obstacles interfering with the Bluetooth signal.
