• LIGHTNING PROTECTION/PREVENTIVE MEASURES: If the device is not going to be used for a
prolonged period (e.g. when on holiday), it should be disconnected from the mains by removing
the plug. The device should also be disconnected from the mains in the event of a thunderstorm.
Doing this will prevent damage caused by lightning and overvoltage.
• MAINS CABLE: The mains cable must always be suitable for operation and it should only ever be
laid out in a manner that prevents it from being trodden on. It should not be pinched by objects
either, as this can damage the cable. When using plugs and power strips it must be ensured that
the cable is not kinked at the point where it emerges from the socket. Do not connect or remove
the mains cable with damp hands.
• The mains plug is used as the disconnecting device. Disconnecting devices shall remain readily
operable.
• OVERLOAD: Sockets, power strips and extension cables should not be overloaded. If an overload
occurs, there is a risk of electric shock and fire.
• SETTING UP: Please read the installation instructions.
• The device should only be positioned or mounted on a solid surface and not on moving base
frames, otherwise there is a risk of injury.
• Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
DAMAGE THAT MUST BE RECTIFIED BY A SPECIALIST:
If any of the following damage occurs, disconnect the device from the mains immediately and contact
a specialist to conduct the repair work:
• The device should not continue to be operated if there is visible damage to the mains cable. A
damaged cable should not be repaired, but must be replaced.
• Damage to the mains socket at the device.
• If moisture or water has entered the device or foreign objects have fallen into the device.
• If the device has fallen and the housing is damaged.
• If the device does not work properly, even though all of the information in the instruction manual
has been observed.
Only those subsequent alterations approved by the manufacturer may be conducted.
Only original spare parts should be used for repair.
After conducting any repairs the safety of device should be checked to ensure it is functioning
correctly and safely.
Repairs must always be conducted by qualified specialists, as you might otherwise be exposed to
dangerous high voltage levels or other hazards.
POSITIONING
The frequency range reproduced by the subwoofer cannot be pinpointed by the human ear. That's
why positioning generally doesn't present any problems. However, it is preferable to place the
speaker close to the front loudspeaker in front of the listening position. You should also make sure
that the distance from the sides and from the rear to items and walls is at least 20 centimetres as
otherwise bass reproduction may be impaired.
