Press gently on the black lid (where it is
marked PUSH) on the back of the cone to tip
out the socket panel.
The mains socket and the 8-pin Power Link
socket are now accessible.
Connect the BeoLab 8000 and the audio
system (or video system) using the enclosed 8-
pin Power Link cable. Plug one end into the
Power Link socket on the speaker, and the
other end into either of the two Power Link
sockets on the audio/video system.
Once you have connected the speakers, the
switch underneath the Power Link socket on
the BeoLab 8000 must be set to L or R: L for
the left-hand speaker, R for the right-hand
speaker.
Finally, connect the speakers to the mains
using the enclosed mains lead.
To secure the
mains cord from being disconnected, we
advise you to tie the mains cord to the black
lid with the enclosed cable-tier (A).
The phono socket underneath the switch must
be used instead of the Power Link socket if the
BeoLab 8000 is to be connected to a non-Bang
& Olufsen product. In this case, the switch
must be set to LINE.
