How to clean a Bluetooth speaker

The tone plays through whatever speaker your phone is connected to, so the speaker does the cleaning itself.

1

Connect and turn up

Pair the speaker, then raise the volume on both the phone and the speaker.

2

Grille facing down

Place the speaker so the wet or dusty side faces the floor, on a towel if it’s wet.

3

Run Water eject or Deep clean

Water eject for splashes and rain; Deep clean if it still sounds dull after one cycle.

4

Dry the port, then charge

Make sure the charging port and its flap are completely dry before plugging in.

Where water and dust hide

Portable speakers have a few parts that need different care.

Fabric grilles

  • Brush with a soft brush or use a lint roller.
  • Let wet fabric air-dry fully; it holds water longer than mesh.

Rubber passive radiators

  • The bouncing rubber panels on the ends. Wipe them with a dry cloth.
  • Don’t press on them; they’re part of the speaker.

Charging port

  • Most damage comes from charging while wet.
  • Dry the port and close any flap before using the speaker in water again.

Bluetooth speaker questions

Yes. Any speaker connected to your phone or laptop plays the tone, regardless of brand.

Water-resistant speakers handle water, but water left in the grille muffles the sound until it drains. A cycle clears it faster.

Loose objects on or near the speaker, or the passive radiators touching a surface. Move it to a clear, hard surface.

Yes. The tone generator and speaker test both work through a Bluetooth speaker, which is handy for checking bass response.
