Maintenance Instructions
To maintain the speaker’s pristine condition, clean the exterior regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or wet cloths, which can damage the surface or internal electronics.
Do Not Disassemble
Disassembling the Hummingbird speaker is extremely dangerous and will void the warranty immediately. The internal components are sensitive and can pose a risk of electric shock or other injuries if tampered with. Only authorized Veddan technicians should service the speaker.
Power Cycling
Avoid frequently switching the power on and off within short periods. Rapid power cycling can stress the electronic components and may lead to damage. To ensure the longevity of your speaker, allow a few minutes between powering off and on again. And don’t use electronic switches to power off the speakers.
Do Not Cover the Speaker Grill
The grill on the Hummingbird speaker is vital for both optimal sound performance and cooling. Blocking or covering the grill can interfere with the speaker’s audio output and cause overheating, potentially leading to damage of the internal components. Always ensure the grill remains unobstructed for the best listening experience and to maintain the longevity of your speaker.
Warning: Prolonged Exposure to Loud Sound
Listening to high volumes for extended periods can cause permanent hearing damage. To protect your hearing, maintain a safe volume level and take regular breaks during extended listening sessions.
