MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR
Q: Why isn’t there sound coming from any of my speakers?

turned up. Also, make sure your audio device is not set to “MUTE” and volume is turned up.
Q: Why isn’t there sound coming from one of the speakers?
A: Ensure the audio cord to the BoomChair™ 3.2 is securely connected as described in the Setup Guide.
Make sure that both the left and right channel audio inputs and outputs are securely connected to the BoomChair™ 3.2 and audio device.
