Maintenance

Waterproof Information (IPX7)

Important: Do not charge the speaker if it is wet. Always ensure the ports are completely dry before connecting the charging cable.

Battery Care

• Avoid exposing the speaker to extremely high temperatures, as this can degrade battery performance.
• Store the speaker in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place when not in use for extended periods.
• Repeated charging and discharging, even when done correctly, will gradually shorten the usable time of the battery.
