Maintenance

Waterproof Feature

The Bobtot speaker boasts an IPX5 waterproof rating, meaning it is protected against water jets from any direction. This makes it suitable for use in environments where it might encounter splashes, such as a shower, by the pool, or during light outdoor activities.

Important: While water-resistant, the speaker is not designed for submersion. Avoid directing strong, continuous jets of water directly into the speaker grille, as this can temporarily affect sound quality.

Cleaning

To clean the speaker, gently wipe its surface with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or solvents, as these can damage the finish or internal components. Always ensure the charging port cover is securely closed before cleaning with any moisture.

Troubleshooting

  • Muffled or Distorted Sound After Water Exposure: If water enters the speaker grille, it may temporarily muffle or distort the sound. To restore clear audio, gently blow air into the speaker grille to clear any trapped water.
  • Cannot Pair Bluetooth or Frequent Disconnections: Ensure the speaker is fully charged and within the 33-foot Bluetooth range of your device. Try turning both the speaker and your device's Bluetooth off and then on again. If the issue persists, remove the speaker from your device's paired Bluetooth list ("forget device") and attempt to re-pair.
  • Low Volume When Connected to iPhone: Some iPhone users may experience lower than expected volume. This can often be resolved by disabling the "Reduce Loud Sounds" safety feature in your iPhone's Settings > Sounds & Haptics > Headphone Safety.
  • Speaker Not Turning On: Verify that the speaker's battery is charged. Connect the speaker to a power source using the provided Type-C cable and allow it to charge for a few minutes before attempting to power it on again.
