4. Maintenance and Care
4.1 IP68 Waterproof Design
The KingSom Floating Pool Speaker boasts an IP68 waterproof rating, making it suitable for use in pools, hot tubs, and other wet environments. When water enters the speaker, its advanced technology causes vibrations that automatically "pop out" the water, ensuring sound quality is not interfered with while in use.
Figure 6: The speaker's IP68 waterproof design allows it to float and function perfectly in water, with water automatically expelling from the speaker grilles.
4.2 Cleaning and Storage
- After use in chlorinated or saltwater, rinse the speaker with fresh water to prevent residue buildup.
- Wipe the speaker dry with a soft cloth before storing.
- Store the speaker in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
