While we encourage you to take your ROLL wherever the party goes, we also want it to look great and last as long as possible.

While the speaker is waterproof, the chemicals and salt in your pool or the ocean can damage the waterproof seals over time if not rinsed off after use.

Overall playtime depends on how you use your ROLL, with things like the type of music and volume level all affecting the overall playtime. However, when played at roughly mid-volume, you can expect you can expect up to 9 hours of playtime from one full charge.
Charging
Using the USB cable provided, and a standard USB port (eg. Laptop) it will take approximately 5 hrs. 30 mins to recharge your ROLL to 100%. ROLL can also be charged with most USB chargers and times will be faster depending on the output of the USB charger you use.
Your ROLL can store up to eight paired devices in memory.

To reconnect a device to your ROLL after the initial pairing or after pairing another device:
Turn the speaker on
On your device, go to the Bluetooth menu and select ROLL from the list of devices.
Once reconnected, you’ll hear an audible confirmation from the speaker. Your ROLL is now ready to use with the device you selected.
