Step 2
- Pull apart your cover gently from both sides and remove it from the speaker housing.
- The inside of the front cover has holes that must match with their corresponding pins on the speaker housing for proper reassembly.
- Removing the Front Cover does not affect the waterproof seals of the device. However, removing any further disassembly of your speaker will require removing waterproof seals and gaskets. Your device may no longer be waterproof after these have been altered.
