The value of the fuse is indicated on the pin face of the plug and if it requires replacing, a fuse approved to BS1362 of the same rating must be used. Never use the plug with the fuse cover removed. If the cover is detachable and a replacement is required, it must be of the same colour as the fuse

tted in the plug. Replacement covers are available from your dealer. If the tted plug is not

suitable for the power points in your house or the cable is not long enough to reach a power point, you should obtain a suitable safety approved extension lead or consult your dealer for assistance.

NOTES

• Do not connect the power cord of this product or your TV to a wall outlet until all connections between components are complete.

• Before moving or installing this product, be sure to turn off the power and disconnect the power cord.

• If the main unit is powered off, the wireless subwoofer will go into stand-by mode and the STANDBY LED on the rear of the sub-woofer will turn red after blinking in blue several times.

• If you use a device that uses the same frequency (5.8GHz) as the Soundbar near the Soundbar, interference may cause some sound interruption.

• The maximum transmission distance the main unit’s wireless signal is about 10 meters, but may vary depending on your operating environment. If a steel-concrete or metallic wall is between the main unit and the wireless subwoofer, the system may not operate at all because the wireless signal cannot penetrate metal.

PRECAUTIONS

• Wireless receiving antennas are built into the wireless subwoofer. Keep the unit away from water and moisture.

• For optimal listening performance, make sure that the area around the wireless subwoofer and the Wireless Receiver Module (sold separately) is clear of any obstructions.
