Daily use

3

When you have finished setting
up the loudspeakers as described
on the following pages, connect
the entire system to the mains

supply. The indicator lights up

in red, indicating that the loud-

speakers are in standby, ready
to be used. The loudspeakers
are designed to be left in this

standby mode when not in use.

Switching on and off –
indicator

When you switch on your Bang &
Olufsen system, the loudspeakers
switch on simultaneously. The red
standby indicator light turns green,
indicating that the loudspeakers
are switched on.

When you switch off your system,
or mute the sound, the red
indicator light appears immediately,
indicating that the loudspeakers are
not in use.

If the loudspeakers are connected
to a non-Bang & Olufsen system,
they switch on when they receive a
signal from the system (refer to p. 6).
They switch off a few minutes after
the signal has disappeared.

Loudspeaker protection

The loudspeakers are equipped
with a thermal protection system
which prevents overheating. If an
error occurs – or the speaker units
become overheated – the system
automatically switches the loud­speakers to standby, and the
indicator light turns orange.

To restore the situation:

> Disconnect the loudspeakers

from the mains.

> Allow the system time to reset

(approximately 3 –5 minutes).

> Reconnect the loudspeakers to

the mains.

Should the problem persist, contact

your Bang & Olufsen retailer.

Cleaning the loudspeaker

Wipe dust off the 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.

Never use alcohol or other solvents
to clean any part of the loud­speakers!

NOTE! Prolonged listening at high
volume levels may cause hearing
damages.

Set up the loudspeaker

We recommend that you follow
this procedure:

– Disconnect your system from the

mains supply.

– Place the loudspeakers in your

setup.

– Set the switches to the correct

setting. This is explained in ‘Adapt
the loudspeakers to your setup’

(pages 6 –7).
– Connect your speaker system.
– Connect the entire system to the

mains again.

If you mount the loudspeaker on a
wall bracket, you cannot assemble
the base to the loudspeaker.

Cautions

– Make sure that the loud speakers

are placed and connected in
accordance with the instructions
in this Guide. To prevent injury,
use Bang & Olufsen approved
stands and wall brackets only!

– The loud speakers can only be

switched off completely by
disconnecting them from the
wall socket.

– The loudspeakers are designed

for indoor use in dry, domestic
environments only, and for use
within a temperature range of

10–40º C (50–105º F).

– Remember that all speakers in a

setup must be connected to a
mains outlet, and that they are
designed to be connected to the
mains at all times, as this allows
them to switch on automatically.

– Do not attempt to open the loud-

speaker. Leave such operations to
qualified service personnel!

Column and base

It is easiest to assemble the base and
the speaker column if the loud­speaker is lying on a table.

In order to protect the table and
the column from being scratched,
we recommend that you place the
wrapping foam on the table first.

Hook the base plate onto the two
guiding pins at the bottom of the
speaker column (be care ful not to
drop the base plate!). Insert the
three screws and tighten them
securely.
