• If present, adjust the support feet/tips in order to
obtain the best possible conditions of stability.
Do not place heavy objects on the loudspeaker,
as these could compromise its integrity and/or
stability.
• If the loudspeaker (of a book shelf type) is to be
placed upon a support surface other than those
for which it has been designed (e.g. bookcases,
shelves, TV stands, etc.), the surface’s ability to
sustain the weight of the loudspeakers themselves
must first be verified. Also check that there is
enough friction between the loudspeaker and the
surface in order to avoid any movements caused
by vibrations during use. Where needed, rubber
adhesive feet can be purchased from all good
hardware stores.
• Do not put any objects containing water or other
liquid/liquefiable substances on the loudspeaker
system.
• Follow the connection diagram suggested in the
instruction manual. Remember that the parallel
connection of two or more loudspeakers can
damage your amplifier. If in doubt, contact your
dealer.
• Avoid staying in close proximity to the
loudspeakers while the audio system is operating
at high volume. This can cause permanent damage
to your hearing! Children should maintain a safe
distance from the loudspeaker system of at least
50 cm.
• The loudspeakers produce an electromagnetic
field which is harmless to humans and pets, but
can cause disturbances to the proper functionality
of electronic equipment, such as CRT monitors
or TVs, when placed in close proximity. If this
occurs, increase the equipment’s distance from the
loudspeakers. Do not place credit cards or other
similar magnetic stripe cards on the loudspeaker.
• The technology behind the functioning of
the loudspeakers is based on the principles of
electromagnetism, and thus the user should
avoid operating equipment that generates strong
electromagnetic fields as these could affect the
correct functioning of the loudspeaker. Avoid
placing transmitting devices such as mobile
phones, cordless phones, intercom systems etc.
on top of the loudspeaker systems.
• Do not connect directly to a constant voltage (100
V, 70.7 V or similar) sound distribution system.
This could result in a serious system overload,
with possible damage to the loudspeaker system
and/or the amplifier unit.
• Do not place audio cables and electrical power
cables in close proximity to one another. An
electromagnetic field is present in the vicinity of
the power cables, which can cause an unpleasant
humming noise. In this case, increase the distance
between the audio cables and the power cables.
• Be very careful during the assembly and
disassembly of the rubber string grille, if present.
Make sure that the lower bracket’s pins have
been properly inserted into their lodgings before
tightening the wires to fasten the upper bracket.
• The loudspeaker cable terminals accept banana
plugs. This protection is aimed at avoiding
accidental connection to unprotected electrical
outlets. Only remove the red and black plastic
caps if you intend to use this type of connection,
and make sure that the other end of the cable
is connected to the amplifier’s power output
terminals.
