PLEASE NOTE: Your device will have an internal ampliﬁer and if it is playing digital ﬁles like MP3s it will also have

an integrated DAC (Digital Audio Converter). If you turn up the volume to 100%, your device will be sending distorted

signals to the Hive Discovery. To avoid this and to get the best sound quality from the speaker, we recommend that

you do not run your device any higher than 95% volume.

1. Press (don’t hold) the Torch button (8) to turn the torch on

2. Press (don’t hold) the Torch button (8) to turn the torch off whilst it is on

To activate this feature:

1. Double press the Torch button (8)

2. Single press the Torch button (8) to deactivate SOS mode

USB output

Using the USB output (1) on the Hive Discovery, you can charge most smartphones, MP3 players and other mobile

devices (excluding tablets). To use the USB output:

2. Plug the USB cable into the USB output (1) and the other end into your device

3. Your device will automatically begin charging

Note: Charging a device using the USB output (1) will dramatically reduce the remaining play time of the speaker.

IP44 rating

The Hive Discovery is rated IP44. This means that the Hive Discovery can be exposed to splashing water for up to

5 minutes and no harm will come to it. Do not expose the Hive Discovery to jets of water or submerge it entirely as

it is not capable of preventing damage to itself in these circumstances. Please also make sure that the protective

rubber covers are properly shut, otherwise the IP44 rating becomes invalid.

If the Hive Discovery has got damp/wet during use, we recommend drying it off to help prevent any damage

from occurring.

Care for your Hive Discovery

Please DON’T:

• Drop the Hive Discovery as this will invalidate your warranty

• Open up the Hive Discovery as there are no user serviceable parts inside

• Expose the Hive Discovery to extreme temperatures or rapid changes of hot to cold or vice versa

Please DO:

• Clean the Hive Discovery with a soft dry cloth and no detergents

• Dry the Hive Discovery after use if it gets damp or wet
