2. Connect the other end of the lead to the audio output on your audio source.

3. Make sure all connected Bluetooth audio devices are paused.
   Note : Audio leads are not included.

CLEANING THE SPEAKER

Clean your speaker regularly to keep it fresh and last longer.
Unplug any leads before cleaning the speaker and make sure everything is completely dry before plugging in any audio or USB leads.
The silicone sleeve and strap can be removed and cleaned separately.
Use a disinfectant wipe or a lint-free cloth, slightly damp with 70% isopropyl alcohol or 75% ethyl alcohol to gently clean silicon parts. Dry them with a towel before putting them back on the speaker.
Carefully clean the speaker mesh and openings with a dry and soft brush, or a cotton swab.

• Do not use any sharp or metal objects.
• Do not use compressed air.
• Do not use products containing bleach or hydrogen peroxide.
• Do not submerge the speaker in any cleaning agents.

BATTERY CARE GUIDE
Your speaker comes equipped with a high-performance lithium-ion battery and the life span is affected by charging and usage. Follow the guidelines below to keep your battery in great condition for as long as possible.

• Avoid using fast chargers if possible. Fast charging causes stress on the battery and will degrade it.
• Avoid charging the battery when it is already full or letting it drain completely. Try keeping the charge between 30% and 80%.
• If the speaker is stored for a long time, do so with a halfcharged battery and in a cool, dark, and dry place.
• Do not use or charge the speaker in hot and unventilated places, 45°C/113°F and above, such as in a parked car or by a window in direct sunlight.
• Avoid charging the battery at low temperatures, below 10°C/50°F and using the speaker below 0°C/32°F.
• Avoid strong mechanical shocks such as dropping the speaker on hard surfaces as it might damage the battery.

PERFORMING A FACTORY RESET

A factory reset will return the speaker to its original settings, excluding any firmware updates.
Note: This will delete all user settings meaning the speaker will need to be set up again.

1. Ensure that the speaker is on.
2. Push and hold the Bluetooth button for 7 seconds. All indicators turn off and the speaker restarts.
3. Remove Middleton from your audio device’s Bluetooth list before pairing again.

MARSHALL BLUETOOTH APP
Download the Marshall Bluetooth app to get the most out of your speaker and keep it up to date with the latest software.

ATTACHING THE CARRY STRAP

1. Remove the screw from the carry strap.
2. Thread the end of the strap through the top of the hinge on the speaker.
3. Join the end of the strap with the screw and tighten it.

Make sure the carry strap is secured to the speaker before use.

   The LED starts to blink until another speaker joins the session.
