Audio will now play in stereo across both speakers.

To Disconnect TWS: Press the TWS button on either speaker, or power off one of the speakers.

8. Maintenance and Care

Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the speaker. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
Water Resistance: The speaker is IPX6 water-resistant, meaning it can withstand powerful water jets. It is not designed for submersion. Ensure all port covers are securely closed to maintain water resistance.
Storage: Store the speaker in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
Battery Care: To prolong battery life, charge the speaker fully at least once every three months if not in regular use. Avoid fully discharging the battery frequently.

9. Troubleshooting

Problem	Possible Solution
Speaker does not power on.	Ensure the battery is charged. Connect the speaker to a power source using the USB charging cable.
Cannot pair with Bluetooth device.	Ensure the speaker is in Bluetooth pairing mode (LED flashing). Make sure Bluetooth is enabled on your device. Move the speaker closer to your device (within 10 meters / 33 feet). Forget "PSP967" from your device's Bluetooth list and try pairing again. Ensure no other devices are currently connected to the speaker.
No sound or low volume.	Increase the volume on both the speaker and your connected device. Ensure the speaker is not muted. Check if the audio cable is properly connected in AUX mode. For USB/TF card mode, ensure the audio files are in a supported format.
Poor FM radio reception.	Connect the USB charging cable to the speaker (it acts as an antenna) and reposition the speaker for better signal.
TWS pairing fails.	Ensure both speakers are PSP967 models and are not connected to any other Bluetooth device. Place speakers close to each other during pairing. Try powering both speakers off and on again, then re-attempt TWS pairing.
