Troubleshooting

Speaker won't turn on

Ensure the speaker is adequately charged. Connect it to a power source using the provided Micro-USB cable and wait for the charging indicator to show activity. Try a different power adapter and outlet if necessary.

Audio skipping or cutting out

Move your Bluetooth device closer to the speaker. Minimize interference from other wireless devices or physical obstructions. Ensure your device's software is up to date.

Speaker not charging

Verify that the Micro-USB cable and power adapter are working correctly. Clean the Micro-USB port on the speaker gently with a dry, soft brush to remove any debris. Try a different charging cable and adapter.
