Charging the speaker

The speaker is capable of running on power either from an AC outlet connected by a USB AC adaptor (commercially
available) or from the rechargeable built-in battery.
When using the speaker for the first time, be sure to charge the built-in battery for more than 1 hour before turning on the
speaker.
With the built-in battery charged in advance, you can use the speaker solely with battery power.
Hint
For charging the built-in battery of the speaker, the Battery Care mode option is available in addition to the normal charging
method. Battery Care mode limits the maximum charge capacity to approximately 90% and makes the battery life last longer. The
playback time available in Battery Care mode is shorter than the time available when the built-in battery is charged by the normal
charging method. At the time of purchase, the speaker is not in Battery Care mode.
You can place/bring the speaker into/out of Battery Care mode with "Sony | Music Center."
Connect the speaker to an AC outlet to charge it.

Connect one end of a USB Type-C
adaptor (commercially available), and then connect the USB AC adaptor to an AC outlet.
The speaker supports USB AC adaptors that are capable of delivering an output current of 3.0 A or 1.5 A. When
using a USB AC adaptor with an output current of 3.0 A for battery charging, be sure to use a USB Type-C cable
(compliant with the USB standard) that supports an output current of 3.0 A. The supplied USB cable supports an
output current of up to 1.5 A. Use of any other devices is not guaranteed for battery charging.

The estimated charging time varies depending on the power output capacity of the connected USB AC adaptor
(commercially available). In addition, it may take longer than the charging time stated below depending on the type
and specification of the USB AC adaptor and USB cable. The charging time may differ from the time stated below
depending on the ambient temperature or the usage of the speaker as well.
The following time is stated as a reference.
When a commercially available USB AC adaptor capable of delivering an output current of 1.5 A is connected,
charging completes in about 5 hours
When using a commercially available USB AC adaptor, make sure that it is capable of delivering an output
current of 1.5 A or more. You can use a USB AC adaptor with an output current of 500 mA or more and less
than 1.5 A as well, but it may take a very long time before charging completes. When using such a USB AC
adaptor, it is recommended that you turn off the speaker before battery charging.
