    • Inside a vehicle with the windows closed (especially in summertime)

    • A place subject to excessive dust

    • A place subject to strong vibration

  • Place this speaker on a flat, level surface. When placed on a sloped surface, the speaker may fall over or fall off the surface due to its own vibration, resulting in injuries, malfunctions, or performance degradation.
