Thank you
for choosing a Loewe product! We are happy to have you as a customer.
Loewe stands for the highest standards of technology, design and ease of operation. This applies equally to TV, DVD/Blu-ray, audio and accessories. Neither technology nor design is an end in itself, but both are intended to provide our customers with the best possible audio and visual experience. Our design is not influenced by short-term, fashionable trends. You have, after all, purchased a high-quality piece of equipment which you do not want to tire of tomorrow or the day after.
The Loewe Subwoofer 300 is designed for Loewe TV sets and Loewe speaker systems. The device has a powerful bass amplifier and an integral stereo amplifier.
Loewe TV sets with an integrated digital multi-channel audio decoder transfer the audio signals to the subwoofer via the DIGITAL AUDIO LINK connection. The confi­guration and settings for the subwoofer 300 and the connected speakers can be comfortably done via the current Loewe TV sets. The connection via DIGITAL AUDIO

LINK also offers the possibility to connect a second subwoofer in order to obtain an even more powerful bass.
Via an analogue LINE IN connector, you can also use the subwoofer 300 for Loewe TV sets without DIGITAL AUDIO LINK connector or other audio sources.

Operating instructions For your safety Cleaning
For your safety
For your safety, and to avoid unnecessary damage to your unit, please read and follow the safety instructions below:
 The unit is intended exclusively for the playback of audio signals.
 Pull the power plug before connecting or disconnecting other devices or
speakers.
 Do not operate the unit unattended. In case of longer absence, pull out the
power plug.
 The power plug of the TV set must be easily accessible so that the TV can be
disconnected from the power supply at all times.
 When unplugging the unit from the mains, pull at the connector body and not
at the cable. The cables in the mains plug could otherwise be damaged and could cause a short-circuit when plugged in again.
 Pull out the power cable during thunderstorms. A voltage surge caused by
lightning conducted through the mains could damage the unit.
 Place the unit on a firm, level surface.
 Do not set up the unit near strong heat sources or in direct sunlight.
 Do not place objects containing liquids on top of the unit.
 Candles and other open flames must be kept away from the unit at
all times to prevent the spread of fire.
 When installing in a cabinet or closed shelf: leave about 10 cm free
space around the unit to allow the air to circulate freely, thereby avoiding a build-up of heat and an influence on the sound reproduction.
 Under no circumstances, the air supply of the subwoofer may be obstructed.
Make sure it is far enough away (> 10 cm) from the floor or wall.
 Lay the speaker and power cables in such a way that they cannot be damaged.
The power cable may not be kinked or laid over sharp edges, not stood on and not exposed to chemicals; the latter also applies to the system as a whole. A power cable with damaged insulation can lead to electric shocks and is a fire risk and must therefore be changed before operation of the set continues.
 The speakers generate magnetic dispersion fields which act in the vicinity of
the housing. We recommend a minimum distance of > 0.5 m from magneti­cally sensitive equipment, such as magnetic data media etc.
 If you have moved the unit out of the cold into a warm environment, leave it
switched off for about an hour to avoid condensation forming. Do not switch the unit on until it has reached room temperature. This prevents serious damage to the components.
 WARNING: To prevent electrical shock, do not open the unit. There are no
parts inside the unit that can be repaired by the user. Repairs should only be carried out by a Loewe dealer.
Protect the unit from ...
 Water, dampness, dripping or sprayed water or steam
 Impacts and mechanical stresses
 magnetic and electric fields
 higher electrical powers than specified
 cold, heat, direct sunlight and high temperature fluctuations.
 Dust
 Covering which obstructs air circulation
 Interference with the internal workings of the unit
This device has been built exclusively for private use in domestic environments. Warranty services cover this intended use. See the rating plate on the bottom of the set for the precise product designation.
Cleaning
Clean the top side of the subwoofer made of aluminium with a damp, soft and clean cloth only (without any abrasive cleaning agent).
The housing of the subwoofer is fabric covered. Vacuum the surface regularly with a soft brush attachment.
In case of dirt or stains: Moisten a soft, colour-neutral cloth with detergent or normal stain remover and gently rub away the stain. You can also treat the stain directly with normal dry stain remover spray (vacuum up powder). Do not moisten the fabric cover directly with detergent or stain remover (risk of encrustation). Do not use any solvents to clean the fabric.
Follow the manufacturer‘s instructions when using stain removers.
There is an increased risk of encrustation when cleaning the cloth grills with
nicotine deposits.
