When you have nished setting up the subwoofer as described on the following pages, connect the entire system to the mains supply. The indicator lights up in red, indicating that the subwoofer is in standby, ready to be used. The subwoofer is designed to be left in this standby mode when not in use.
NOTE! The subwoofer is designed to protect itself if the active speaker unit becomes overheated. The subwoofer protec tion circuit may become active after a period of playing at a high volume level.
Switching on and off – indicator
When you switch on your Bang&
Olufsen system, the subwoofer switches on simultaneously. The red standby indicator light turns green, indicating that the subwoofer is switched on.
When you switch off your system, or mute the sound, the red indicator light appears immediately, indicating that the subwoofer is not in use.
Subwoofer protection
If the active speaker unit becomes over heated, the subwoofer will instantly reduce the sound level. Once the situation has stabilised, the sound level is slowly returned to normal. If the subwoofer is played constantly at a very high volume level, it will eventually mute the sound completely.
Should the subwoofer mute the sound, the indicator light turns orange.

Cleaning the subwoofer

Never use alcohol or other solvents to clean any part of the subwoofer!
NOTE! Prolonged listening at high volume levels may cause hearing damages.
To restore the sound:
> Disconnect the subwoofer from
the mains.
> Allow the active speaker unit
time to cool off.
> Reconnect the subwoofer to the
mains.
