Extreme overload of the device due to very high volume may cause individual components to
blow. Because of the possible danger, you should never leave loudspeakers under extreme
overload conditions unattended.

DANGER! Do not open the cabinet because the components and conductors may carry
dangerous levels of electricity! Servicing to be carried out by qualified service personnel only.
Servicing is required when the loudspeaker has been damaged in any way, such as damage to
the power supply cord or the plug, or when liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the
loudspeaker, the speaker has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or
has been dropped. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not open the loudspeaker. Servicing

7. Fuse links
Various faults in subwoofers or active speakers may cause the fuse to blow. If the fuse blows,
only replace it with the correct fuse type and rating as shown on the rear of the loudspeaker on
the fuse holder. A second fuse is included with the device (in the fuse holder beneath the mains
socket).
8. Cleaning
NOTE: Clean only with soft, smooth cloth or with dust brush. Do not use scouring agents, alcohol,
benzene, furniture polish or other agents for cleaning! Modern furniture is often coated with
multiple varnishes and plastics which can be treated with chemical agents. Some of these agents
contain substances which degrade or soften the rubber feet. Therefore, we advise you to place
an anti-slip mat underneath the loudspeaker.

responsibly.
