Lay the speaker and power cables in such a
way that they cannot be damaged. The power
cable may not be kinked or laid over sharp
edges, stood on or exposed to chemicals; the
latter also applies to the system as a whole.
A power cable with damaged insulation can
cause electric shocks and poses a fire risk.

droplets or water splashes, such as those
found near a bathtub, wash basin, kitchen
sink, washing machine, wet basement or
swimming pool. Never place containers
filled with liquids, such as e.g. flower vases,
on the device.
1.1.4 Ventilation
Slots and openings in the housing are used
to ventilate the device to ensure reliable
operation of the device and to protect the
device from overheating. Do not block the
ventilation holes. Install the device according
to the manufacturer's instructions. Never
block the ventilation holes by placing the
device on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar soft
surfaces. This device should not be installed
in a bookshelf or built-in wardrobe unless
adequate ventilation is ensured.
1.1.5 Heat
Do not install the device near hot surfaces,
such as radiators, fan heaters, stoves or
other devices (including amplifiers) that can
be hot. Never place objects with open flame,
such as candles or lanterns, on or near the
device. The installed batteries should not
be exposed to excessive heat such as direct
sunlight, fire or the like.

sunlight or high-frequency fluorescent light
may cause malfunction. In such cases, you

mains during thunderstorms and if it is not
used for a long time.
1.2.5 Penetration of foreign material
and liquid
Be careful not to allow foreign material or
liquid to enter this device through ventilation
holes, otherwise it may come into contact
with high voltage components or short circuit
resulting in a fire or electric shock. Never spill
liquids of any kind on this device.
1.2.6 Risks associated with high
volume
