Question

Mazz · Accepted Answer

It takes about 4 hours to charge . When you hook up the charging cord the power button on the unit will light up orange, when your unit is fully charged the orange light will turn off.

I usually just plug mine in at night and it is charged when I wake up in the morning. My wife charges hers more often, and it seems to only take an hour or thereabouts, when plugged into a wall outlet( a little longer, it seems, when plugged into a computer USB port) You can tell when it is charged, because the power button, which lights up when plugged in, needing a charge, will fade out. To increase the volume,(The + button), you have to have something, i.e.. cell phone etc. paired or plugged in to it. Your cell phone volume button will control the speaker volume. Also, to power the speaker on, you need to push and hold down the power button for about 2-3 seconds you will hear the speaker say "Powering on, welcome to Altec Lansing" Try suggested and you will really like the quality and versatility of your speaker.You may well end up with three or four of them in your home, as we have!!!! ENJOY!!!! ;)

When my phone hooks up to the speaker a little battery symbol shows up next to my Bluetooth logo in the corner and it tells me how much power my speaker has. Hope that helps

The instructions say it takes about 4hrs for a full charge. The power button lights up while it is charging and it turns off when it's done charging.

It takes 4 hours to charge. And the light won't be red anymore when done charging.
