We are craftspeople. We are musicians. We are KitSound™
And we all commit ourselves to achieving one shared goal: Bringing
people closer to their music. By truly understanding music we stay true
to its craft. Pure, rich, incredible sound. We’ll settle for nothing less.
At KS we believe your music deserves to be showcased on great
quality products that don’t cost the earth. We might not all share
the same taste in music (the ferocious disputes on music forums
prove that), but whether it’s Irish folk, death metal or any number
of obscure genres which seem to be multiplying by the minute, the
artists responsible for connecting with you through their craft have
bared their souls to do so. And we think that’s worth celebrating.
Like the musicians we’re honouring, we’re obsessed with our craft;
fine-tuning and tweaking our products to make sure we constantly
deliver full-bodied, symphonic sound. So from a single note played
on a piano, to the full impact of a bass guitar, you can rest assured
that you’ll always be doing justice to your music.

Instructions for use
Charging the speaker
1. Plug the mini USB end of the charging cable into the speaker
2. Plug the standard USB cable end into either a computer or a USB mains charger
3. The LED indicator will be solid red while charging
4. When charging is complete, the red light will turn off
Note: It may take up to 4 hours before the speaker is fully charged.
Water resistant handling (IPX4)
The Rinse is resistant to splashing water from any angle. However, it should never be
operated directly under running water for longer than 5 minutes (max water volume:
10 litres per minute, max pressure: 80–100 kPa) and under no circumstances should
it be fully immersed in water. Before using the Rinse, please make sure the water
resistant seal (12) is fully closed.
If the Rinse has got damp/wet during use, we recommend drying it off to help prevent
any damage from occurring.

Note:
• If you need to manually enter pairing mode, press and hold the Play/Pause button (3)
for 3 seconds and the LED indicator will flash blue quickly

Playing music on your speaker
Bluetooth
If already connected to the speaker via Bluetooth, simply find and play the music on your
device and the sound will play through the speaker. Some devices may require you to
select the audio output. You should be able to do this by going to the ‘Listen via’ or
‘Play via’ menu. If unsure, please refer to your device’s manual.
If you are using an AVRCP Bluetooth-enabled device, you will be able to use the
following functions on the speaker:
• Play/Pause (3) short press
• Next Track (7) short press
• Previous Track (4) short press
Changing the volume
This can be done on both the device you are playing music from and on the speaker.
To change the volume on the speaker, press and hold (do not short press otherwise
it will skip track) the Volume + (7) or Volume – (4) button. A tone will be heard when
at maximum volume or minimum volume.
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 Rinse. 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.
16 17
Hands-free
The speaker comes equipped with a microphone so you can take phone calls while
connected. Should you receive an incoming phone call, the music will pause and the
speaker will ring. Press the Answer/end call button (5) to answer. To end the call,
press the Answer/end call button (5) again and your music should resume playing
(dependant on device).
Care for your Rinse
Please DON’T
• Drop the Rinse as this will invalidate your warranty
• Open up the Rinse. There are no user serviceable parts inside
• Expose the Rinse to extreme temperatures or rapid changes of hot to cold or vice versa
Please DO
• Clean the Rinse with a soft dry cloth and no detergents
• Dry the Rinse after use if it gets damp or wet
