Sub Woofer

It is important to observe polarity while making speaker connections: red (+) terminals
on the amplifier to red (+) on the speaker, black (-) on the amplifier to black (-) on the
speaker. Look carefully at the wires you are using and note that one of the wires in each
pair is marked by either a different color, printing, ridges, or a thread intertwined with
the wire strands. By convention, the marked wire is connected to the red (+) terminal.

Voltage Selection

The Atlantic Technology subwoofers operate with either 120 or 240 volts AC 50-60 Hz.
Please make sure that the 

voltage selector switch 

shows the correct voltage for your

area before plugging the unit in. The voltage can be
easily changed by moving the switch to the correct
voltage in your area and installing the proper fuse and
power cord. To change the fuse, remove the power
cord, insert a screwdriver tip into the notch in the side
of the fuseholder, and pry the fuse out. Replace with
the correct value fuse as marked next to the fuseholder,
and push back into place.
