chain, especially if they are not placed close 
together. To check the phase alignment for 
the “master” subwoofer switch off the “slave” 
subwoofer and follow the instructions given in 
the previous sections.

To adjust the phase alignment of the “slave” 

subwoofer, you need to switch off the “master” 
subwoofer, connect a signal cable from the 
“slave” subwoofer’s “C“ channel output con-
nector to the center channel loudspeaker and 
switch the LINK IN switch to “OFF”. This effec-
tively changes the “slave” to “master” mode 
and the phase adjustment can be carried out. 
If you have a stereo system use either “L” or 
“R” channel to complete the adjustments. 
Return the connections and LINK IN setting 
on the “slave” subwoofer back to the “ON” 
mode after completing the adjustment.

Safety considerations

The Genelec F Two complies with interna-
tional safety standards. However, to ensure 
safe operation and maintain the equipment in 
safe operating condition the following warn-
ings and cautions must be observed.

•  Do not use this product with an 
unearthed mains cable or a mains 
connection without the protective earth 
contact as this may lead to personal injury.
•  Danger of explosion if battery is 
incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the 
same or equivalent type.
•  The battery shall not be exposed to 
excessive heat such as sunshine, fire or 
the like. 
•  Servicing and adjustment must only be 
performed by qualified service personnel. 
•  Opening the subwoofer is strictly 
prohibited except by qualified service 
personnel. 
•  Do not expose the subwoofer to water 
or moisture. Do not place any objects 
filled with liquid, such as vases on the 
subwoofer or near it. 
•  Note that the amplifier is not completely 
disconnected from the AC mains service 
unless the mains cable is removed from 
the amplifier or the mains outlet.

Warning!

This equipment is capable of delivering sound 
pressure levels in excess of 85 dB, which 
may cause permanent hearing damage.

Compliance to FCC rules

Remote control

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC 
Rules. Operation is subject to the following 
two conditions: 

(1) this device may not cause harmful 

interference, and (2) this device must accept 
any interference received, including interfer-
ence that may cause undesired operation. 
This product emits radio frequency energy, 
but the radiated output power of this device 
is below FCC radio frequency exposure 
limits. This equipment complies with FCC RF 
radiation exposure limits forth for an uncon-
trolled environment. Nevertheless, the device 
should be used in such a manner that the 
potential for human contact with the antenna 
during normal operation is minimized.

Changes or modifications not expressly 

approved by the party responsible for compli-
ance could void the user’s authority to oper-
ate the equipment.

Subwoofer

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC 
Rules. Operation is subject to the following 
two conditions: 

•  This device may not cause harmful 
interference, and
•  This device must accept any 
interference received, including 
interference that may cause undesired 
operation. 

Note: This equipment has been tested 

and found to comply with the limits for a 
Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 
of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed 
to provide reasonable protection against 
harmful interference in a residential instal-
lation. This equipment generates, uses and 
can radiate radio frequency energy and, if 
not installed and used in accordance with 
the instructions, may cause harmful inter-
ference to radio communications. However, 
there is no guarantee that interference will 
not occur in a particular installation. If this 
equipment does cause harmful interference 
to radio or television reception, which can be 
determined by turning the equipment off and 
on, the user is encouraged to try to correct 
the interference by one or more of the fol-
lowing measures: 

•  Reorient or relocate the receiving 
antenna. 

•  Increase the separation between the 
equipment and receiver. 
•  Connect the equipment into an outlet 
on a circuit different from that to which the 
receiver is connected. 
•  Consult the dealer or an experienced 
radio/TV technician for help.

 
Modifications not expressly approved 

by the manufacturer could void the user’s 
authority to operate the equipment under 
FCC rules.

Changing the remote control 

battery

The remote control battery can be changed 
by turning the battery cover on the back of 
the remote control anticlockwise. Use a small 
screwdriver under the right side of the bat-
tery (see figure 4) to wedge the battery out.  
Replace the battery with a similar CR2032 
type battery.  Insert the battery with the left 
side first as shown in figure 4 and close the 
battery cover.

Take the used battery to your local bat-

tery recycling point. Under no circumstances 
should the battery be disposed with general 
dry waste.

Maintenance

There are no user serviceable parts inside 
the subwoofer. Any maintenance of the unit 
must only be performed by qualified service 
personnel. 

Guarantee

This product is supplied with two year guar-
antee against manufacturing faults or defects 
that might alter the performance of the unit. 
Refer to supplier for full sales and guarantee 
terms.
