Battery charging tips and precautions
•
You can charge the Bluetooth speaker using the charger (sold separately).
•
If the battery is completely discharged, the Bluetooth speaker cannot be turned on
immediately when the charger is connected. Allow a depleted battery to charge for a few
minutes before turning on the Bluetooth speaker.
•
Using a power source other than the charger, such as a computer, may result in a slower
charging speed due to a lower electric current.
•
The Bluetooth speaker can be used while it is charging, but it may take longer to fully
charge the battery.
•
If the Bluetooth speaker receives an unstable power supply while charging, it may not
function. If this happens, unplug the charger from the Bluetooth speaker.
•
While charging, the Bluetooth speaker and the charger may heat up. This is normal and
should not affect the Bluetooth speaker lifespan or performance. If the battery gets
hotter than usual, the charger may stop charging.
