Operating Instructions

Maintenance

Cleaning and Care

• Cooler Interior: The insulated lining should be hand washed only. Use mild soap and water, then rinse thoroughly. Allow to air dry completely before closing or storing to prevent mold or mildew.
• Exterior: Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Speaker Area: Keep the speaker grilles clean and free of debris. Use a soft, dry brush if necessary.
• Storage: Store the cooler in a cool, dry place when not in use.

Important Note: While the product is designed for outdoor use, it is not fully waterproof for submersion. Avoid submerging the speaker portion in water. The cooler section is designed to hold ice and liquids, but users have reported potential leaking issues. Consider using a plastic bag liner inside the cooler if using loose ice to prevent leaks and protect the speaker components from excessive moisture.

Troubleshooting

• No Power: Ensure the speaker is fully charged. Connect to a power source and check the charging indicator.
• Cannot Pair Bluetooth:
  1. Ensure the speaker is in pairing mode (flashing LED).
  2. Turn off and on your device's Bluetooth.
  3. Move your device closer to the speaker (within 33 feet).
  4. Ensure no other devices are currently paired with the speaker.
• Poor Sound Quality:
  1. Check the volume levels on both the speaker and your connected device.
  2. Ensure the speaker is within Bluetooth range and there are no obstructions.
  3. Verify the audio source on your device is playing correctly.
• Cooler Leaks: The cooler is designed with an insulated lining. If leaks occur, ensure the zipper is fully closed. For optimal leak prevention, especially with loose ice, consider using a separate plastic liner bag inside the cooler compartment.
