• The power supply must be used indoors only. It is neither
designed nor tested for use outdoors, in recreation
vehicles, or on boats.

• Make no modifications to the product or accessories.
Unauthorized alterations may compromise safety,
regulatory compliance, and system performance, and
may void the warranty.

• Where the mains plug or appliance coupler is used as the
disconnect device, such disconnect device shall remain
readily operable.

• Do not place any naked flame sources, such as lighted
candles, on or near the apparatus.

• The battery is only intended for use with the power supply
or charger provided with the speaker. Refer to charging
instructions in the speaker owner’s guide. Do not continue
charging the battery if it does not reach full charge within
the 10 hours. Overcharging may cause the battery to
become hot, rupture, or ignite. If you see any heat defor­mation or leakage, properly dispose of the battery.

• Do not attempt to charge the battery in temperatures
outside the range of 32°-104°F (0°-40°C).

ignite. Using the product in this manner also may result in
a loss of performance and a shortened life expectancy.

• If the battery is damaged and ignites, do not use water
to extinguish flames. Instead, use a functioning fire
extinguisher.

• Do not step on, throw, or drop batteries or the power
supply or expose them to a strong shock. Do not pierce,
crush, dent, or deform the batteries or power supply in any
way. If either becomes deformed, properly dispose of it.

• Do not short-circuit batteries. Avoid storing them around
metal objects such as keys, pocket change, paper clips,
and jewelry.

• Do not dismantle, open, or shred the battery.

• The battery is intended to be used only with the Bose

Placing the speaker

When using your SoundLink® Bluetooth®

Mobile speaker II indoors, the tonal quality
can vary depending on where the speaker is
placed in a room. When moving the speaker
around within a room or from room to room,
keep the following guidelines in mind:

• The speaker is designed to sound best
when placed on a shelf, counter, desk, or
tabletop that is 24 to 48 inches high.

• For best bass response, the speaker should
be placed near a wall; bass response
decreases as the speaker is placed closer
to the center of a room.

• When operating the speaker, always use the
cover as a stand. Do not lay the speaker on
its back. Sound is emitted from both the
front and rear of the unit.

10

• The speaker should not be placed in small
areas that are enclosed on all sides except
the front, as this will adversely affect sound
quality.

• Do not place the speaker on wet or dirty
surfaces. Doing so could transfer dirt, sand,
or moisture onto the speaker when the
cover is closed.

If you are using your speaker outdoors, you

should expect the tonal quality to change as
you move farther from the speaker.
