Daily use

When you have nished setting
up the loudspeakers as described
on the following pages,
connect the entire system to
the mains supply. When in
standby, the indicator light is
switched off. The loudspeakers
are designed to be left in
standby mode when not in use.

Switching on and off –
indicator light

When you switch on your Bang&
Olufsen system, the loudspeakers
switch on simultaneously. The
indicator light turns green,
indicating that the loudspeakers are
switched on. After some time, the
indicator light will fade down.

When you switch off your system,
the red indicator light appears
briey, indicating that the
loudspeakers are not in use.

Loudspeaker protection

If an active speaker unit becomes
over heated, the affected
loudspeaker will instantly reduce
the sound level. Once the situation
has stabilised, the sound level is
slowly returned to normal.

If the indicator light is solid orange,
turn down the volume or allow
your loudspeakers to cool off.

If your loudspeakers detect a fault,
an orange indicator light will ash
until your loudspeakers are
disconnected from the mains supply.

Should the problem persist, contact

your Bang& Olufsen retailer.

Cleaning the loudspeakers

Clean the loudspeaker surfaces
using a dry, soft cloth. If necessary,
remove stains or dirt with a soft,
damp cloth and a solution of water
and mild detergent such as
washing-up liquid.

The speaker cloth may be cleaned

with a vacuum cleaner with a
brush nozzle, and set to the lowest
suction level.

Never use alcohol or other solvents

to clean any part of the

loudspeakers!
