You can use your speaker just about anywhere. Here are a few things to keep in mind:
When the microphone is on, Roam tunes itself with automatic Trueplay™ for amazing sound no matter where you are and what you’re listening to.
You can place Roam 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.
Roam’s durable design includes silicone end caps to protect the speaker if it’s dropped or bumped.
For optimal performance, avoid placing Roam in direct sunlight.
Roam can be placed horizontally or vertically. When vertical, Roam takes up barely any room. Position it horizontally for added stability on uneven surfaces.
Roam has an IP67 rating—it’s dustproof and waterproof and can be submerged 1 meter for up to 30 minutes. If Roam gets saturated with water, you can dry it off this way:
Flush Roam with tap water, then give it a quick shake.
Place the speaker vertically for a few seconds until it drains, then place it face down (logo side down) on a dry towel for a few minutes.
Start playing some audio to assist with drainage.
Note:Don’t play audio when Roam is immersed in water.
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.
The microphone is used for voice control, and for automatic Trueplay tuning. Press to turn the microphone on or off—the microphone LED light will let you know when your voice assistant is listening.
When the microphone light is on,
If you have a voice assistant, voice control is on and your voice assistant is ready to respond.
Auto Trueplay tuning is enabled so Roam can automatically adjust its sound for your surroundings.
When the microphone light is off,
If you have a voice assistant, voice control is off—your voice assistant is not listening.
Automatic Trueplay tuning is disabled.
Turn Bluetooth on in your device settings.
Press and hold the power button on Roam for about 2 seconds until you hear the pairing tone (the second one), then release.
The status light blinks blue and Roam is ready to pair.
Choose Roam from the list of available devices in your Bluetooth settings.
Your device will automatically connect to Roam next time.
