• Follow all instructions.

• Unplug the speakers from the computer and from
the electrical outlet before cleaning them with a
dry cloth.

• Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions.

cabinets, never push objects into speaker vents or

proper ventilation.

• Do not install near any heat sources such as
radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus
(including amplifiers) that produce heat.

or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience
receptacles, and the point where they exit from
the apparatus.

should be placed on the apparatus.

• Only use attachments/accessories specified by the
manufacturer.

• For added protection during lightning storms,
unplug the speakers from the electrical outlet and
turn off the computer.

• Unplug this apparatus when unused for long
periods of time.

• Servicing is required when the apparatus has
been damaged in any way, such as when the
power-supply cord or plug has been damaged,
liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into
the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed
to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or
has been dropped.

• Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

• The speakers should be disconnected from the
mains by placing the power/standby switch in the
standby position and unplugging the power cord
of the speakers from the AC mains receptacle.

• The socket-outlet shall be installed near the
equipment and shall be easily accessible.

the pins before inserting the plug.
