Safety notes
Improper electrical installation or excessive mains
voltage may result in an electrical shock.
• The subwoofer is suitable for a mains voltage of
230 V ~ / 50 Hz. When connecting the device, make
sure that the correct voltage is present. You can find
more information in this respect on the nameplate.
• Check the subwoofer regularly for damage.
Immediately disconnect the mains plug and do not
operate the device if its housing or mains cord is
defective or exhibits other visible damages.
• If the mains cord is damaged, it must be replaced
with an equivalent power cord.
• If the subwoofer emits smoke, smells burnt, or
makes unusual sounds, immediately disconnect
it from the electrical socket and do not operate it
further.
• Never open the subwoofer housing. Repairs may
only be carried out by an authorized workshop
and only parts that correspond to the original unit
specifications may be used.
• Only use accessory products specified by the
manufacturer.
• Only use the subwoofer indoors.
• Do not use the device in damp rooms and protect
it from dripping and splashing water. Make sure
that no vases or other liquid-filled containers are
on or near the device in order to prevent liquid from
penetrating the housing. If water or other debris
penetrates the housing, immediately unplug the
device and contact our service centre.
• Never modify the device. Unauthorized tampering
could affect its safety and function.
• Never touch the power plug or plug the device in
with wet hands.
An unstable setup location may result in injury and
damage.
• If the subwoofer is not securely mounted, do
not use it in vehicles, unstable locations, with
insufficient brackets, on wobbly stands or furniture,
etc. The subwoofer could tip over or fall and cause
injury to persons or be damaged itself.
• Place the subwoofer in such a way that it cannot be
inadvertently knocked over and make sure that the
cables do not pose a trip hazard.
• Do not place the subwoofer near sources of
heat (e.g. heaters, ovens, other heat generating
equipment such as amplifiers etc.).
• Do not use the subwoofer in environments where
there is a risk of explosion.
• Only use the Bluetooth function in locations where
wireless radio transmission is allowed.
An unstable base may cause the unit to tip and
injure or even kill persons; children are particularly
at risk. You can prevent a large number of
accidents by taking the following precautions:
• Only place the subwoofer on the floor.
• If you want to use underframes or speaker stands,
only use those recommended by the manufacturer.
• When storing the subwoofer, ensure that it stands
safely and cannot be knocked down or over.
Children can become trapped in the plastic
wrapping while playing and suffocate.
• Do not allow children to play with the subwoofer
and plastic wrapping. There is a danger of
suffocation.
• Ensure that children do not remove small parts
from the device or take them off of the device (e.g.
control knobs or plug adapters). They could swallow
the parts and choke.
• Never let unsupervised children use electrical
equipment.
Leaking battery acid may lead to chemical burns.
• Do not allow battery acid to come into contact with
skin, eyes or mucus membranes. In the event of
contact with acid, immediately flush the applicable
areas with plenty of clean water and consult a
physician if necessary.
