SAFETY WARNINGS AND GUIDELINES
For best results, and to avoid personal injury or damage to your valuable equipment, carefully read and follow these safety warnings.
- Do not expose these speakers to moisture of any kind. Do not place items containing liquids, such as vases or drinking glasses, on or near these speakers.
- If operating this speaker system in a humid environment, ensure that no condensation occurs. Condensation could cause damage to the speaker cones and could cause a short in the subwoofer’s amplifier, which in turn could cause fire or severe electric shock.
- To avoid damage or discoloration of the speaker cabinet, do not place or install these speakers where they will be exposed to direct sunlight.
- Do not place or install these speakers near a heat source, such as a fireplace, stove, or space heater.
- Ensure that there is at least 8″ (20cm) of free space in the back of the subwoofer to allow for heat dissipation from the amplifier.
- Do not pick up or carry the subwoofer by the port. Do not stick any objects inside the port.
- When picking up the subwoofer take care not to touch the exposed speaker cone.
- Power off and unplug all Audio/Video components when making wired connections. Only apply power after all connections have been made.
- Double-check all connections prior to applying power to ensure that speaker polarity is properly made and that there are no stray wire strands, which could short the connections, either on the back of the speakers or the AV receiver/amplifier.
- Do not defeat the purpose of a polarized or grounded power plug by using a “cheater” plug. If the power cord will not fit in your AC outlet, please contact an electrician to have the obsolete plug replaced.
- Do not allow the power cord to be walked on or pinched. Do not run the power cord under a rug, as doing so could cause a fire.
- Ensure that your AC power outlet provides voltage within the range specified on the back panel of the subwoofer.
- When removing cords or cables, do not pull on the cable. Always grasp the connector/plug head when removing cords or cables.
- Install the subwoofer in a place where the power plug can be readily accessible so that you can quickly unplug the unit in the event that a safety incident occurs.
- Do not use full volume until after the speakers have been fully broken in.
- If you hear distortion reduce the volume until the distortion is no longer audible. Distortion can sound like a buzzing, scratching, or hammering sound. Distortion can damage or destroy delicate speaker coils.
- To avoid annoying feedback, ensure that any turntable is isolated from the vibrations produced by the speakers and subwoofer.
- Extreme bass frequencies and volume can distort the image on a nearby television. If this occurs, move the subwoofer further away from the TV.
- Do not use cleaning fluids, solvents, or other chemicals to clean the speaker cabinets. Do not use paper towels or other abrasive materials or cleaners. Use only a soft, dry cloth. For best results, use a microfiber cleaning cloth.
- Do not use excessive volume when listening to this speaker system. If you experience pain, discomfort, or dizziness, reduce volume immediately. Prolonged exposure to excessive volume can cause permanent hearing damage.
- Do not disassemble or attempt to service these speakers or the subwoofer.
