Dear MAGNAT Customer,
Congratulations on your fine new loudspeakers and thank you very much for choosing MAGNAT! You have made an excellent choice.
The high-quality speakers produced by MAGNAT are renowned all over the world.
Please study the instructions and information below carefully before using your new loudspeakers.
IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Please read through the instruction manual carefully before starting to use the device. This manual contains important information
concerning operation and safety aspects. It is imperative you observe all of the information. Keep the manual in a safe location.
• WARNING NOTICES:
All of the warning symbols on the device, accessories and in the instruction manual itself must be adhered to.
• EXPOSURE TO HEAT:
Only operate the device and accessories in a temperature range from 10°C to 40°C.
The device should not be positioned near heat sources (heaters, ovens, radiant heaters, naked flames, etc.). When setting up close to an
amplifier a minimum distance of 10 cm must be maintained. No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, should be placed on the device.
Pay attention to a sufficient ventilation of the device. The device may not be covered, e.g. by drapes, curtains. Maintain a distance of 20 cm
to walls.
•
EFFECT OF MOISTURE:
The device should not be exposed to dripping or splash water. Neither should it be used to support vases or
other containers filled with liquid. Do not expose the device to water or high levels of humidity. There is a danger of electric shock. In the
event of contact with moisture or liquids remove the mains adapter immediately.
•
FOREIGN MATERIAL:
Ensure that no foreign material enters through the device openings and into the interior. This could trigger short
circuits and even result in electric shock and fire.
•
CLEANING:
Please use a soft, dry cloth with no cleaning agents, sprays or chemical solvents, as these could damage the surfaces.
•
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION:
Please note the voltage levels on the information signs. The mains adapter for the device should only be
operated with the voltage and frequency values specified on the signs.
•
LIGHTNING PROTECTION/PREVENTIVE MEASURES:
If the device is not going to be used for a prolonged period (e.g. when on holiday),
it should be disconnected from the mains by removing the plug. The device should also be disconnected from the mains in the event of a
thunderstorm. Doing this will prevent damage caused by lightning and overvoltage.
•
MAINS CABLE:
The mains cable must always be suitable for operation and it should only ever be laid out in a manner that prevents it
from being trodden on. It should not be pinched by objects either, as this can damage the cable. When using plugs and power strips it
must be ensured that the cable is not kinked at the point where it emerges from the socket. Do not connect or remove the mains cable
with damp hands.
• The mains plug is used as the disconnecting device. Disconnecting devices shall remain readily operable.
• Do not endanger the safety of plugs with reverse polarity protection or a ground connection. A plug with reverse polarity protection has
2 contacts with one wider contact. A plug with a ground connection has 2 contacts and a third contact that functions as a ground
connection. The third contact is for your safety.If the supplied cable is not compatible with your socket, please ask an electrician to
replace the unusable cable.
• MAINS FUSE:
Only the type of fuse that is specified on the rear of the amplifier (next to the fuse holder) may be used.
•
OVERLOAD:
Sockets, power strips and extension cables should not be overloaded. Observe the rated values on the sockets and
extension cables. If an overload occurs, there is a risk of electric shock and fire.
•
SETTING UP:
Please read the installation instructions. The device should only be positioned or mounted on a solid surface and not on
moving base frames, otherwise there is a risk of injury.
Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
DAMAGE THAT MUST BE RECTIFIED BY A SPECIALIST:
If any of the following damage occurs, disconnect the speaker from the mains immediately and contact a specialist to conduct the repair
work:
• The device should not continue to be operated if there is visible damage to the mains cable. A damaged cable should not be repaired,
but must be replaced.
• Damage to the mains socket at the device.
• If moisture or water has entered the device or foreign objects have fallen into the device.
• If the device has fallen and the housing is damaged.
• If the device does not work properly, even though all of the information in the instruction manual has been observed.
Only those subsequent alterations approved by the manufacturer may be conducted. Only original spare parts should be used for repair.
After conducting any repairs the safety of device should be checked to ensure it is functioning correctly and safely.
Repairs must always be conducted by qualified specialists, as you might otherwise be exposed to dangerous high voltage levels or other hazards.
