Power sources 

— the subwoofer should be connected only to a power supply of the

type described on its rear panel. If you are not sure consult your dealer or a
qualified electrician.

Power cord

— Power supply cords should be routed so as not to be walked on or

caught under or against items.

Ventilation

— To ensure reliable operation and to prevent the subwoofer from

overheating ensure good ventilation. Do not cover the subwoofer and do not place
it closer than 10cm from walls or soft furnishings. Do not use in a built-in
installation unless proper ventilation is provided. Consult your dealer.

Water and moisture

— The subwoofer should not be used near water, i.e near a

wash-bowl, basin, in a wet basement or swimming pool area.
Temperature — The subwoofer may not function correctly at extremely low or
freezing temperatures. The subwoofer should also be sited away from heat sources
such as radiators or other electrical equipment that produces heat, including other
amplifiers.

Electric shock

— Care should be taken so that objects are not inserted into

connectors or other apertures and that liquid does not spill into the enclosure. Do
not insert objects into the reflex port.
Never attempt to dismantle the subwoofer as serious electric shock might occur if
the internal parts are touched.

Cleaning

— Unplug the subwoofer from the wall power outlet before cleaning. Use

only a clean, dry cloth. Do not use cleaners, liquids or solvent based preparations to
clean the cabinet.

Smells

— If an abnormal smell or smoke is detected, immediately turn the power

Off and unplug the subwoofer from the wall power outlet.
