Troubleshooting

Indicator on front panel not lit
Check the following:
There is AC power connected to the socket
on the back of the 3100 loudspeaker.
The power switch on the back panel of
the 3100 loudspeaker is turned on.
If the front panel indicator will still not
illuminate, check any fuses in your power
supply and the fuse in the inlet of the 3100
loudspeaker. If these are all intact, contact your
dealer.
Unit goes quiet when played hard
A temperature sensing system on the 3100
loudspeakers prevents overheating of the
electronics. The sound will revert back to
normal volume when the speaker has cooled.
Drive units move when the speaker is
switched on or off
This is normal as the speaker active electronics
settle.
