ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
&
S E T U P G U I D E
A mains cable is supplied with an IEC moulded socket at one end and a moulded mains plug at the other end.
Where the moulded plug is fitted with a mains fuse, always replace with the same 5A rated fuse.
If the fitted plug is unsuitable for your type of outlet sockets, it should be cut off and disposed of safely, in
case it is inserted into a live socket elsewhere. The wires in the mains cable are coloured in accordance with
the following code:
GREEN AND YELLOW- EARTH
BLUE- NEUTRAL
BROWN- LIVE
AS THE COLOURS OF THE WIRES IN THE MAINS CABLE MAY NOT CORRESPOND WITH THE
COLOURED MARKINGS IDENTIFYING THE TERMINALS IN YOUR PLUG, PROCEED AS FOLLOWS:
• The wire which is coloured GREEN AND YELLOW must be connected to the terminal in the plug which
is marked either by the letter E, the earth safety symbol, or coloured GREEN or GREEN and YELLOW.
• The wire which is coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked by the
letter N or coloured BLACK.
• The wire which is coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked by
the letter L or coloured RED.
• Ensure that the terminals are tightened securely, and no loose strands of wire are present.
• Ensure cord grip is clamped over outer sheath of cable, rather than over the wires.
EUROPEAN MODELS
An additional mains fuse is provided in the IEC power inlet on the back of the subwoofer, which can only be
removed with the power cord unplugged. This must be replaced by a fuse of the same type and rating (see
Specifications or refer to rear panel).
