You can put your speaker just about anywhere. Here are a few guidelines:
Move is made to give you powerful sound anywhere—auto Trueplay tuning periodically
balances the sound for wherever you are and whatever you’re listening to. The microphone
has to be on for automatic tuning so if you don’t leave the microphone on all the time,
turn it on for a few minutes whenever you move your speaker so it can automatically
adjust the sound for your new surroundings.
Move sounds great even when placed next to a wall or on a shelf. For best performance,
leave at least 1" (2.5 cm) space around the back of the speaker.
It’s ultra durable. With a tough outer shell and IP56 rating, Sonos Move is built to withstand
falls, bumps, moisture, dust, UV rays, and extreme temperatures. Just don’t leave it out in
a soaking rain storm, and remember that the charging base that’s included is for indoor
use only.
Don’t use or store your Sonos Move upside down.
Auto Trueplay
You can put Sonos Move just about anywhere. Auto Trueplay tuning optimizes the sound for wherever
you are and whatever you’re listening to. Your speaker’s microphone is used to detect the environment
so auto Trueplay can make periodic tuning adjustments to deliver the best sound.
If you don’t want the microphone on all the time, be sure to turn it on whenever you move the
speaker. Your Sonos Move starts retuning when you pick it up, and continues to adjust the sound for
a few minutes after you place it in a new location.
Note: Auto Trueplay is disabled while you’re using Bluetooth.
Microphone on/off
The microphone is used for voice control, and for auto Trueplay tuning. Touch to turn the
microphone on or off.

Switch modes
Set Move up on your WiFi, then use the mode switch on the back of Move to switch between
Bluetooth and WiFi. When you use Bluetooth for the first time, you’ll need to pair Move with your
mobile device. Once paired, they’ll reconnect automatically next time.
Bluetooth pairing
1. Turn Bluetooth on in your mobile device settings.
2. Press the mode button on the back of Move to switch it to Bluetooth.
3. Choose Move from the list of available devices on your mobile device. If it’s not there, press
and hold the mode button and then choose Move from the list when it appears.
