operating instructions should be retained
for future reference.
HEED WARNINGS - All warnings on the
subwoofer and in the operating instructions
should be adhered to.

bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, or
laundry tub; in a wet basement; or near a
swimming pool; and other similar
conditions.
ACCESSORIES - Do not place the
MegaWorks THX 250D system on an
unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or
table. The subwoofer or satellites may fall,
causing serious injury to a child or adult,
and serious damage to the product. Use
only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or
table recommended by Cambridge
Soundworks and Creative Technology, or
sold with the product. Any mounting of the
satellites or subwoofer should follow the
manufacturer’s instructions, and should use
a mounting accessory recommended by
Cambridge Soundworks and Creative
Technology.
VENTILATION - Slots and openings in the
cabinet are provided for ventilation, to
ensure reliable operation of the subwoofer
and to prevent it from overheating; and
these openings must not be blocked or
covered. The openings should never be
blocked by placing the product on a bed,
sofa, rug, or other similar surface. The

or local power company. For products
intended to operate from battery power or
other sources, refer to the operating
instructions.
POLARIZATION - The subwoofer may be
equipped with a polarized alternatingcurrent line plug (a plug having one blade
wider than the other). This plug will fit into
the power outlet only one way. This is a
safety feature. If you are unable to insert
the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing
the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit,
contact your electrician to replace your
obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety
purpose of the polarized plug.
