Frequently Asked Questions - Five SONOS

Can I use the Sonos Five with Bluetooth?

The Five uses Bluetooth Low Energy only for initial setup. For music streaming, it relies on WiFi or Apple AirPlay 2. There is no standard Bluetooth audio streaming.

How do I clean my Sonos Five?

Clean with a dry, soft cloth. Do not use household cleaners or solvents as they may damage the finish.

Is the Sonos Five waterproof?

No, it is humidity-resistant (suitable for bathrooms) but not waterproof. Avoid exposing it to rain or submersion in water.

Location and usage guidelines

You can use your speaker just about anywhere. Here are a few things to keep in mind:

• When the microphone is on, Roam tunes itself with automatic Trueplay™ for amazing sound no matter where you are and what you're listening to.
• You can place Roam next to a wall or on a shelf—for best performance, leave at least 1" (2.5 cm) space around the back of the speaker.
• Roam's durable design includes silicone end caps to protect the speaker if it's dropped or bumped.
• For optimal performance, avoid placing Roam in direct sunlight.
• Roam can be placed horizontally or vertically. When vertical, Roam takes up barely any room. Position it horizontally for added stability on uneven surfaces.

Waterproof design

Roam has an IP67 rating—it's dustproof and waterproof and can be submerged 1 meter for up to 30 minutes. If Roam gets saturated with water, you can dry it off this way:

1. Flush Roam with tap water, then give it a quick shake.
2. Place the speaker vertically for a few seconds until it drains, then place it face down (logo side down) on a dry towel for a few minutes.
3. Start playing some audio to assist with drainage.

Note: Don't play audio when Roam is immersed in water.

Automatic Trueplay™

Auto Trueplay tuning optimizes the sound for wherever you are and whatever you're listening to. Your speaker's microphone is used to detect the environment so auto Trueplay can make periodic tuning adjustments to deliver the best sound.

Microphone on/off

The microphone is used for voice control, and for automatic Trueplay tuning. Press ↓ to turn the microphone on or off—the microphone LED light will let you know when your voice assistant is listening.

When the microphone light is on,

• If you have a voice assistant, voice control is on and your voice assistant is ready to respond.
• Auto Trueplay tuning is enabled so Roam can automatically adjust its sound for your surroundings.

When the microphone light is off,

• If you have a voice assistant, voice control is off—your voice assistant is not listening.
  • Automatic Trueplay tuning is disabled.

2. Press and hold the power button on Roam for about 2 seconds until you hear the pairing tone (the second one), then release.

The status light blinks blue and Roam is ready to pair.

You can put your speaker just about anywhere. Here are a few guidelines:

• Move is made to give you powerful sound anywhere—auto Trueplay tuning periodically balances the sound for wherever you are and whatever you're listening to. The microphone has to be on for automatic tuning so if you don't leave the microphone on all the time, turn it on for a few minutes whenever you move your speaker so it can automatically adjust the sound for your new surroundings.
• Move sounds great even when placed next to a wall or on a shelf. For best performance, leave at least 1" (2.5 cm) space around the back of the speaker.
• It's ultra durable. With a tough outer shell and IP56 rating, Sonos Move is built to withstand falls, bumps,

moisture, dust, UV rays, and extreme temperatures. Just don't leave it out in a soaking rain storm, and remember that the charging base that's included is for indoor use only.

- Don't use or store your Sonos Move upside down.

Automatic Trueplay™

You can put Sonos Move just about anywhere. Auto Trueplay tuning optimizes the sound for wherever you are and whatever you're listening to. Your speaker's microphone is used to detect the environment so auto Trueplay can make periodic tuning adjustments to deliver the best sound.

If you don't want the microphone on all the time, be sure to turn it on whenever you move the speaker. Your Sonos Move starts retuning when you pick it up, and continues to adjust the sound for a few minutes after you place it in a new location.

Microphone on/off

The microphone is used for voice control, and for auto Trueplay tuning. Touch ↓ to turn the microphone on or off.

When the microphone light is on,

• If you have a voice assistant, voice control is on and your voice assistant is ready to respond.
• Auto Trueplay tuning is enabled so Move can automatically adjust its sound for your surroundings.

When the microphone light is off,

• If you have a voice assistant, voice control is off.
  • Auto Trueplay tuning is disabled.

Switch modes

Set Move up on your WiFi, then use the mode switch on the back of Move to switch between Bluetooth and WiFi. When you use Bluetooth for the first time, you'll need to pair Move with your device. Once paired, they'll reconnect automatically next time.

Bluetooth pairing

Five

The high-fidelity speaker for superior sound—

• Three woofers provide deep bass within a sealed architecture that eliminates reverb and echo. Two side tweeters create an ultra wide soundstage while a center tweeter optimizes vocal playback.
• Use the line-in port to connect your turntable or another device—simple control with the Sonos S2 app or Apple AirPlay 2.
• Versatile design with smart orientation sensing. Pair two speakers horizontally and Five automatically separates the left and right channels for impressive stereo sound. When paired vertically, each smartly adjusts to mono for more detailed stereo separation and an even wider soundstage.
• Pair two Fives for left-right stereo sound or use two Fives as rear surrounds for your home theater.

- Set up and control with the Sonos app (for Android and iOS).

- See Getting started when you're ready to add a Five to your Sonos system.

Note: The front grille is not removable. Tampering with the grille may result in damage to your Five.

Select a location

You can put your speaker just about anywhere. For maximum performance, we have a few guidelines:

• The Five is a substantial and powerful speaker and should be placed on a flat surface that is robust and durable enough to properly support it. Make sure Five's rubber feet sit completely on the flat surface.
• Allow at least 2" perimeter all around Five including its power cord.
• For a single Five speaker we recommend positioning the speaker horizontally to enable stereo sound.

SONOS USER GUIDE

• Place Five across the room from where you'll be listening (at or close to your ear height for best results).
• For stereo pair placement information, see Stereo pairs.
• The Five is humidity resistant so you can use it in the bathroom; however it is not water resistant so don't position it near water or leave it outside during a rain storm.

Line-in

Connect an external source like a phono preamp (your turntable may have a built-in phone preamp), or other audio device. Learn more.

Line-out

Control volume from your AVR or amplifier (Fixed line-out level)

Set Port's line-out level to Fixed if you want to control the volume exclusively from your AVR or amplifier. You won't be able to use the Sonos app to adjust the volume or equalization settings.

Go to settings and choose Fixed for the Line-Out Level.

Control the volume from Sonos (Variable line-out level)

When Port's line-out level is set to Variable, you can use the Sonos app to adjust the volume.

1. Adjust your AVR or amplifier's volume to your typical listening volume.
2. Make sure the line-out level is set to Variable. If it's not, you'll need to change it:

- Go to settings and choose Variable for the Line-Out Level.

1. Use the Sonos app to adjust the volume so you can hear music on your Sonos system. It may need to be turned up fairly high.
2. Readjust the volume on your AVR or amplifier so it falls within your typical listening range.

Use Sonos to control the volume on your home theater or amplifier

When Port's line-out level is set to Pass-Through, Port stays at a fixed volume and sends volume commands to your amplifier. You can control volume using the Sonos app, a universal remote, or your voice if you have a voice assistant enabled.

- Go to settings and choose Pass-Through for the Line-Out Level.

Note: Make sure your amplifier supports Pass-Through. If you set the line-out level to Pass-Through and your amplifier doesn't support it, you won't be able to control the volume.

Sub

Sonos Sub takes your audio experience to the next level—

• Instantly adds a dimension of deep bass impact to your audio listening experience.
• Pair Sub (Gen 3) with any other Sub and feel the bass from every corner of the room.
• Allows placement anywhere because it's wireless and compact—position it vertically or horizontally on any floor surface.
• The top of the acoustic slot doubles as a handle so you can lift it.

- Sub (Gen 3) is compatible with Sonos S2 only (for Android and iOS).

- See Getting started when you're ready to add a Sub to your Sonos system.

Note: Sonos Sub is designed for use with most Sonos speakers, except Sonos Connect, Port and Move. Make sure you set up at least one speaker before adding Sub.

Controls and lights

Join button Press to connect during setup.
Status light Indicates the status. Learn more	____If the light is distracting, you can turn it off in your room's settings.

Connector panel

Ethernet port Use an Ethernet cable to connect Sub to your home network.

AC power (mains) input Use only the supplied power cord to connect to a power outlet (using a third party power cord will void your warranty). Be sure to use the proper power adapter for your country. Push the power cord firmly into Sub until it is flush with the surface.

Select a location

Choose a location—it's designed to provide optimal sound wherever you place it.

• Use the acoustic slot as a handle to lift Sub out of the box. You should always bend your knees when lifting heavy objects to avoid undue stress on your back.
• Make sure at least one side of the slot is free from obstruction. If you place it vertically against a wall, don't block the front opening. If you place Sub horizontally on the floor, don't put anything on top of it.
• Sub is designed to sit on the floor. You can place it in a corner, against the wall, behind, under, or next to any piece of furniture on any kind of floor surface.
• Position Sub either vertically or horizontally. If you're going to use it horizontally, you can attach permanent felt feet (available upon request, contact Sonos Support). See Attach feet (optional) for more information.

Make sure at least one side of the rectangular opening (acoustic slot) is unobstructed.

• If you place Sub vertically flush against a wall, don't block the front acoustic slot.
• If you place Sub horizontally on the floor, don't put anything on top of it. Leave at least 1" clearance along the top of Sub if placing under furniture.

Note: Sub contains strong magnets. Don't place it near equipment that is sensitive to magnetic fields.

Attach feet (optional)

If you're placing Sub horizontally on a floor, you can attach permanent felt feet (available upon request, contact Sonos Support) to protect your floor. If you're putting it on a rug or using it vertically, no need to adhere the felt feet.

Note: The felt feet are not removable—a strong adhesive will keep them permanently attached to Sub.

1. Lay Sub down so the Sonos logo is facing down. Make sure you adhere the felt feet to the side that doesn't have the Sonos logo.

2. Place the enclosed guide on one corner of the unit and fold the flaps over the edge.

1. Peel the backing off one of the feet.
2. Press the felt foot (sticky side down) onto the unit inside the circular portion of the guide.
3. Attach the other 3 felt feet the same way.

Boost

For when existing WiFi isn't reliable enough for streaming music—

• Boost broadcasts 360^ signals through walls and ceilings for flawless coverage.
• Streams without interference in the most challenging WiFi environments.
• Bypasses your WiFi to create a separate high-performance wireless network just for Sonos speakers.

- Works with either Sonos S2 or Sonos S1 (for Android and iOS).

When to use a Boost

• Your WiFi is slow or temperamental, or your network is already in high demand with streaming video, gaming, and internet usage.
• WiFi doesn't reach all the rooms where you want to use Sonos. Extend the range of your Sonos system by placing a Boost in between the Sonos speaker that's out of reach and the rest of the Sonos system.
• Your network is 5 GHz only (not switchable to 2.4 GHz).
• Your router supports only 802.11n (you can't change the settings to support 802.11b/g/n).

Select a location

If you purchased a Boost to replace a Sonos product that's connected to your router, first add the Boost to your Sonos system, then plug it into your router and move the one that was originally wired.

If you purchased a Boost to extend the range of your Sonos system, place the Boost in between the Sonos speaker that's out of reach and the rest of the Sonos system.

Wall mounting

1. Choose a location that's close to an electrical outlet (power cord length is 6 ft. / 1.8m), away from heat sources, hidden wiring, gas lines, etc.
2. Drive an American standard #6 round head screw (metric, M3.5 round head screw) into the wall, leaving a gap between the wall and the screw head (approximately 0.13 in / 3.3mm).
   Note: Pan head screws will also work.
3. Place the Boost on the wall and slide straight down, allowing the screw head to slip behind the smaller end of the keyhole slot on the back of the Boost.

Stereo audio in (3.5mm / 1/8") Use to connect external music players.

Select a location

You can put your speaker just about anywhere. For maximum performance, we have a few guidelines:

• The Play:5 is a substantial and powerful speaker and should be placed on a flat surface that is robust and durable enough to properly support it. Make sure the Play:5's rubber feet sit completely on the flat surface.
• Allow at least 2" perimeter all around the Play:5 including its power cord.

SONOS USER GUIDE

• For a single Play:5 speaker we recommend positioning the speaker horizontally, enabling stereo sound over a wide sound stage. (A single Play:5 speaker positioned in vertical mode is a mono speaker—there is no stereo separation.)
• Place the Play:5 across the room from where you'll be listening (at or close to your ear height for best results).
• For stereo pair placement information, see Stereo pairs.
• The Play:5 is humidity resistant so you can use it in the bathroom; however it is not water resistant so don't position it near water or leave it outside during a rain storm.

Speaker mounts and stands

For wall mount kits or stands, tailored to perfectly fit your Sonos products, see Accessories on our website. Follow the instructions in the kit.
