INSTALLATION
Since your
MAS400
contains a power amp, please leave enough space around the unit for cooling purposes. Don’t place your
powered subwoofer close to high-temperature devices such as radiators or exposed to direct sunlight.
MAS400
is connected
to the mains via the supplied cable. First connect the mains cable to the unit, then connect the cable plug to the mains,
finally turn on your
MAS400
.
Please note that all units must be properly grounded. For your own safety, you should never remove any ground connector/
device from electrical devices or power cables, or make them inactive. Please ensure that only qualified people install and
operate the powered subwoofer.
The internal temperature is lowered inside the cabinet by fan continuously blowing on the power amplifier. Anyway, since
MAS400 power amplifier is very powerful and needs a good ventilation, don’t place the sub in dusty places or narrow corners.
The ventilation takes place by means of some slots placed at both ends of cabinet panel, so be careful not to block the
ventilation openings with any object.
