underwater use.
Always make sure the cap(s) / covers(s) are clean, free from sand or debris and
correctly fitted. The speaker will only meet IP67 ratings if all rubber seals, gasket(s)
and cover(s) / cap(s) are in place. If you notice a muffling of audio after submersion
gently shake the unit to clear excess water. If your speaker is exposed to salt water
clean it thoroughly after use with fresh water.
The USB cables, power adapters, and unit with an improperly fitted cap, are
NOT waterproof.
