IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Verify Line Voltage Before Use

The JBL Bar 1300 (soundbar, detachable speakers and
subwoofer) has been designed for use with 100-240V AC,
50/60Hz. Connection to a line voltage other than that for which

your product is intended can create a safety and re hazard

and may damage the unit. If you have any questions about the

voltage requirements for your specic model or about the line

voltage in your area, contact your retailer or customer service
representative before plugging the unit into a wall outlet.

Do Not Use Extension Cords

To avoid safety hazards, use only the power cord supplied
with your unit. We do not recommend that extension cords be
used with this product. As with all electrical devices, do not run
power cords under rugs or carpets, or place heavy objects on
them. Damaged power cords should be replaced immediately
by an authorized service center with a cord that meets factory

specications.

Handle the AC Power Cord Gently

When disconnecting the power cord from an AC outlet, always
pull the plug; never pull the cord. If you do not intend to use this
speaker for any considerable length of time, disconnect the plug
from the AC outlet.

Do Not Open the Cabinet

There are no user-serviceable components inside this product.
Opening the cabinet may present a shock hazard, and any

modication to the product will void your warranty. If water

accidentally falls inside the unit, disconnect it from the AC power
source immediately, and consult an authorized service center.
