    • Make sure the USB cable is securely connected to your speaker and USB AC adaptor.
    • Make sure the USB AC adaptor is securely connected to a working wall outlet.
    • Charging with a USB AC adaptor won't be possible if the internal battery of your speaker is consumed or isn't used for a long time. If this happens, use the supplied AC adaptor.
    • Use a USB AC adaptor with an output current of 3.0 A or more and a USB Type-C™ cable.
      • You can use the USB AC adaptor for an iPhone® cellphone or iPad® tablet, but charging time may take much longer.
