Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Ykall T3 speaker, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the speaker's exterior. Do not use abrasive cleaners, alcohol, or chemical solvents, as these may damage the surface.
• Waterproofing (IPX6): The speaker is IPX6 waterproof, meaning it can withstand powerful water jets. It is suitable for use in showers, by pools, or at beaches. However, it is not designed for submersion. Ensure the protective rubber flap covering the charging and input ports is securely closed before exposing the speaker to water. The speaker is not waterproof when the flap is open.
• Storage: Store the speaker in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Battery Care: To preserve battery life, avoid fully discharging the battery frequently. Charge the speaker regularly, even if not in use for extended periods.
• Avoid Impacts: Despite its rugged design, avoid dropping the speaker or subjecting it to strong impacts, which could damage internal components.
