replacement of the obsolete outlet.
10. Protect the power cord from being walked on or
pinched, particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles
and the point where they exit from the apparatus.
11. Only use attachments/accessories specified by the
manufacturer.
12. Use only with the cart, stand, tripod,
bracket or table specified by the manufacturer or sold with the apparatus. When a
cart is used, use caution when moving the
cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.
13. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when
unused for long periods of time.
14. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
Servicing is required when the apparatus has been
damaged in any way, such as power supply cord or plug
is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen
into the apparatus, or the apparatus has been exposed to
rain or moisture, does not operate normally or has been
dropped.
15. Do not expose this apparatus to dripping or splashing
and ensure that no objects filled with liquids, such as
vases, are placed on the apparatus.
16. To completely disconnect this apparatus from the
AC Mains, disconnect the power supply cord plug from
the AC receptacle.
17. The mains plug of the power supply cord shall remain
readily operable.
18. Do not expose batteries to excessive heat such as
sunshine, fire or the like.

INTERFERENCE STATEMENT
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with
the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of
the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation.
This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. However, there
is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can
be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by
one of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment
and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit
different from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.
FCC Caution: To assure continued compliance, any
changes or modifications not expressly approved by the
party responsible for compliance could void the user’s
authority to operate this equipment. (Example – use only
shielded interface cables when connecting to computer
or peripheral devices.)
FCC Radiation Exposure Statement
This equipment complies with FCC RF radiation exposure limits
set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment
should be installed and operated with a minimum distance
of 20 centimeters between the radiator and your body.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) This device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.

Since the installation of a subwoofer can be somewhat more complicated
than installing full-range speakers, it is essential that you read this
section very carefully prior to connecting the subwoofer to your system.
Should you have questions relating to your installation,it is advisable
to call your dealer or visit www.infinitysystems.com for assistance.
The performance of the subwoofer is directly related to its placement
in the listening room and how you align the subwoofer with its satellite
speakers. Setting the volume of the subwoofer in relation to the left
and right speakers is also of critical importance because it is essential
that the subwoofer integrate smoothly with the entire system. Setting
the subwoofer’s volume level too high will result in an overpowering,
boomy bass. Setting the volume level too low will negate the benefits
of the subwoofer.
Here are several additional facts on installation that may prove useful.
It is generally believed by most audio authorities that low frequencies
(below 125Hz) are nondirectional and, therefore, placement of a subwoofer within any listening room is not critical.While in theory it is true
that the larger wavelengths of extremely low frequencies are basically
nondirectional, the fact is that, when installing a subwoofer within the
limited confines of a room, reflections, standing waves and absorptions
generated within the room will strongly influence the performance of
any subwoofer system.As a result, the specific location of the subwoofer
becomes important, and it is strongly recommended that you experiment
with placement before choosing a final location. Since your new wireless
subwoofer does not need to be physically connected to your receiver or
processor, this process is now even easier.
Placement will depend upon your room and the amount and quality of
bass required (for example, whether or not your room permits placement
of the subwoofer near either satellite). Be sure to leave a minimum of
six inches between the wall and the port on the subwoofer.
