SAFETY WARNINGS AND GUIDELINES
Turn off and unplug all equipment prior to making electrical connections, including
speaker wire connections.
Reduce the volume level prior to making any change to the audio input source, e.g.,
changing radio stations or changing CDs.
This passive speaker system is rated IPX4, meaning that it is protected from
dripping or splashing water from any direction. However, it should not be installed
in an area where it is directly exposed to rain and other weather conditions. The
speakers should always be installed under a full cover.
The satellite speakers should be mounted with a 15° down angle to prevent water
accumulation.
The subwoofer should be mounted in the horizontal position to prevent water from
entering the terminal area.
Ensure that the subwoofer is installed in a location where it cannot fall on people or
animals if it becomes dislodged.
Ensure that the subwoofer terminal cover is properly secured with the wires exiting
from the bottom to of the cover with the rubber flap to maintain the IPX4
waterproof rating.
When using this speaker as part of a constant voltage speaker system, ensure that
the amplifier power is at least 20% higher than the total power settings of the
connected speakers.
Most speaker damage is caused by clipping, which is heard as distortion. If you hear
distortion, reduce the volume level until the audio is no longer distorted.
Take care to ensure that the speaker wire connections are properly polarized.
Inverted polarization can result in unnatural or attenuated sound, especially in the
bass frequencies.
Do not use chemical cleaners or solvents to clean this speaker. Use only a soft, dry
cloth. Moisten the cloth with warm water for particularly stubborn deposits.
