sensing for automatic power on/off.
All the passive speakers are bi-wireable with the exception of the 1010i
and 1000Ci.
All the loudspeakers may be operated close to TV monitors with no ill-
effects with the exception of the 1000Si, which should not be operated
within 500mm of TV screens monitors or other magnetically sensitive
equipment. Plasma and LCD screens are unaffected.
Before making any connections to your loudspeakers make sure that all
active units in your system are switched off at the mains.
When switching on your sound system or changing input sources, set the
main volume control at a low level. Turn up the level gradually.
NEVER play your sound system at full volume. The position of the
volume control is deceptive and does not indicate the power level of the
system. Using very high volume settings may damage your hearing.
DO NOT connect your loudspeaker terminals to the mains supply.
DO NOT expose your loudspeakers to excessive cold, heat, humidity or
sunlight.
If you play your loudspeakers without their grilles on, be careful to protect
the drive units from damage.
DO NOT use makeshift stands. Fit the Q-Acoustics approved stand
according to the instructions and using any fixings provided. Your dealer
will advise you.
DO NOT dismantle the loudspeaker. You will invalidate the warranty.

Unpacking your loudspeakers

Unpack the speakers fully. Lift the speakers from the cartons by holding
the cabinets. Do not use the polythene bags to lift them. The 1030i, 1050i,
and 1000Si are heavy - get assistance to lift them if necessary.
When manoeuvring loudspeakers, do not drag them across the floor as
this may cause damage - lift them before moving them.
In the carton you will find: The loudspeaker/s and this product manual.
In addition the packing for the following models contains:
1030i and 1050i: A plinth for each speaker, screws, an Allen key to
attach the stand and a set of floor spikes and spike covers.
1010i, 1020i, 1000Ci: A set of four adhesive feet.
1000Si: An IEC power cord suitable for the mains supply in your area.
Check the product carefully. If any items are damaged or missing, report
this to your dealer as soon as possible.
Retain the packing for future transport. If you dispose of the packing,
please do so following all recycling regulations in your area.
