Danger Risk of electric shock!
Faulty installation of electrical equipment or
mains voltage which is too high can cause
electric shocks.
• The mains adapter is only suitable for a mains voltage
of 100–240 V ~, 50/60 Hz.
• If the unit's case or mains cable is defective or shows
other signs of visible damage, disconnect the mains
adapter immediately from the socket and do not oper-
ate the device.
• If the device produces smoke, a burning odour or emits
unusual sounds, immediately disconnect it from the
mains and discontinue use.
• The standby button does not disconnect the device
from the power supply. For this reason, connect it to an
easily accessible socket so that you can quickly discon-
nect it from the power supply in the event of faults.
• Never open the unit case.
Repairs may only be carried out by an authorised
specialist workshop. Only use parts which conform
with the original unit specifications. There are electrical
and mechanical parts in this unit which are essential in
order to avoid exposure to sources of danger.
• Do not insert any object through the vent slots in the
case.
• Only use the unit in indoor areas.
• Do not operate the unit in moist areas and protect it from
drops of water or splash water.
Also take care not to stand vases or other containers of
liquid on or near the unit in order to avoid liquid getting
into the case. If water or other foreign bodies should
enter the case, disconnect it immediately from the mains
power supply. Send the unit to our service address.
• Never touch the mains adapter with wet hands.
• Check the unit regularly for damage.
Danger Danger to children!
Children often do not recognise dangers and
require special supervision for this reason.
• Do not allow children to play with the unit or the pack-
ing film. Danger of suffocation.
• Ensure that children do not remove small parts from the
unit (e. g. buttons or plug adapters). They could swal-
low the parts and choke.
• Never allow children to operate electrical devices
unsupervised.
Danger Danger to hearing!
Loud noise may lead to hearing loss.
The system may emit very high sound pressure
levels unexpectedly when it is suddenly triggered into
activity by a bass impulse (especially in mode »Standby/
Auto On« ) and if it has been set to full volume. In addi-
tion to physical injury, psychological stress may also be
caused as a result. Children and pets are particularly
sensitive to noise.
• Set your signal source unit volume control to a low
setting.
• When the volume is set high, always keep a certain
distance from the unit and never place your ear di-
rectly on the speaker.
• To avoid damage to health, avoid extended listening at
high volume.
Danger Danger of injury/damage!
Incorrect location may result in damage.
• Do not use the device unmounted in vehicles without
having it secured, in unstable locations, on wobbly
tripods or furniture, on underdimensioned brackets etc.
The device could tip or fall down and cause injury to
persons or be damaged itself.
• Arrange the speakers so that they cannot be knocked
over accidentally and make sure that the cables do not
pose a trip hazard.
• Ensure that any wall mounting is performed in a profes-
sional manner.
