Troubleshooting
Speaker not turning on
Ensure the speaker is charged. Connect the charging cable and check if the charging indicator lights up. Try a different USB cable or power adapter.
Cannot pair with Bluetooth device
Make sure the speaker is in pairing mode (press and hold the Bluetooth button). Turn off Bluetooth on your device and then turn it back on. Try unpairing other previously connected devices from the speaker or your phone.
No sound or low volume
Check the volume level on both the speaker and your connected device. Ensure the speaker is not muted. Try playing audio from a different app or source.
Poor audio quality or choppy sound
Move the speaker and your Bluetooth device closer together to minimize interference. Reduce the number of Bluetooth devices connected to your source device. Ensure your source device is not running too many demanding applications.

Verify the charging cable is securely connected to both the speaker and the power source. Try a different USB port or power adapter. Clean the charging port gently with a dry cloth or compressed air.
