To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not
expose the Jeep® wireless speaker to rain or
moisture while charging. The Jeep® wireless
speaker should not be exposed to dripping or
splashing, and objects filled with liquids, such as
vases, should not be placed on or near it while
being charged or charging other devices. As with
any electronic products, use care not to spill liquids
into any part of the product. Liquids can cause a
failure and/or a fire hazard. The power supply must
be used indoors only. Make no modifications to the

lighted candles, on or near the Jeep® wireless speaker. The Jeep® wireless speaker contains
small parts that may be a choking hazard and is
not suitable for children under age 3. Do not
continue charging the battery if it does not reach
full charge within the specified charging time.
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). If the battery begins to leak, do not
allow the liquid to come in contact with your skin or
eyes. If contact has been made, wash the affected
area with plenty of water and seek medical
attention immediately. Do not expose the Jeep®
wireless speaker or battery to excessive heat,
including direct sunlight or fire. Do not store or use
inside cars in hot weather, where it can be exposed
to temperatures in excess of 115°F (60°C). Doing
so may cause the battery and power supply to
generate heat, rupture, or ignite. Using the Jeep®

a loss of performance and a shortened life
expectancy. Extended exposure to direct sunlight
may damage the external appearance and
material qualities. Do not step on, throw, or drop
batteries or the power supply or device, or expose
them to a strong shock. Do not pierce, crush, dent,
or deform the batteries or power supply in any way.

extension cords, or integral convenience
receptacles. Your Bluetooth® device (mobile
phone, music player, tablet, laptop, etc.) must
support the A2DP Bluetooth® profile in order to
work wirelessly with your Jeep® wireless speaker.
