Operating instructions
For your safety
Air circulation and high temperatures
Ensure that there is at least 3 cm free space on the sides and above the set for air circulation, if the set is
placed in a cabinet or on a shelf.
Like any electronic device, your unit requires air for cooling. Obstruction of the air circulation can cause
fires.
Prevent metal items, needles, paper clips, liquids, wax, or similar items, from getting into the interior of
the device through the openings of the device covers. Such objects can cause short circuits in the unit,
which could possibly cause a fire.
If something should get into the interior of the set then immediately unplug the mains plug of the device
and contact the field service for more information.
Set-up
Place the unit on an even, firm, horizontal surface. Particularly make sure that the set does not protrude
to the front and laterally when placed in or on pieces of furniture.
Set up the device where it is not exposed to direct sunlight and where it is not exposed to additional
heating by radiators.
Volume
To prevent possible hearing damage, do not listen at high volume levels for long periods.
Ensure that the volume on the device is low or the device is switched off before you leave
the room.
Thunder storms
In the event of a thunderstorm, pull out the mains plug and all connected cables from the device. A
voltage surge caused by lightning conducted through the mains could damage the unit. The mains plug
and all connected cables should also be pulled out during long periods of absence.
Repairs and accessories
Warning: Under no circumstances, do not open or remove the housing cover, otherwise
you will come into contact with dangerous voltages or be exposed to other hazards. There
are no parts inside the unit that can be repaired by the user. Have your device repaired
or serviced by authorised technicians only.
Only use original accessories, if possible.
Cleaning and care
Switch off the device with the main switch prior to cleaning.
Clean the aluminium surface with a soft, slightly damp, clean and colour-neutral cloth only, without any
aggressive or scouring cleaning agents.
You can remove any dust on the speaker surface by carefully using a vacuum cleaner if needs be.
