• Do not allow children to play with the unit or the packing lm. Danger of suffocation.
• Ensure that children do not remove small parts from the unit or take them off of the unit (e.g. control knobs or plug adapters). They could swallow the parts and choke. Never allow children to operate electrical devices unsuper­vised.
Danger to hearing
Loud noise may lead to hearing loss.
Particularly when the subwoofer has been set to maximum volume and the unit is activated, very high noise pressure may suddenly be produced. This may have psychological consequences and also cause physical injury. Children and pets are particularly at risk.
• Set your signal source unit volume control to a low setting.
• When the volume is set high, always keep a certain dis-
tance from the unit and never place your ear directly on the speaker.
• To avoid damage to health, avoid extended listening at
high volume.

Connecting
Danger
Danger of injury/damage!
Arrange the cables so that they do not pose a trip hazard.
1. Pull the power plug of your amplier/AV receiver out or multi­channel active subwoofer of the outlet.
2. Lay the speaker cables from your amplier/AV receiver or multi-channel active subwoofer to each speaker. These cables should be high-quality double-wire speaker cable with marked strands.
3. A connector comprising two terminals is located on the back side of each speaker, to which you have to connect the speaker cables. The terminal clips are each marked red (+) and black (-).
Make sure the polarity is correct!
Connect the like coloured terminals. Otherwise the sound quality will suffer.
The speaker connections of your
amplier/
AV receiver or
multi-channel active subwoofer
should be marked similarly. The strands of the speaker cables are marked with different colours or shapes.
4. Split the single wire down to approx. 30 mm on both ends and strip approx. 10 mm of insulation off of each cord.
5. Twist the stripped single wire ends together so that no wire protrudes. Tin coating is not necessary.
6. Turn the connector terminal counterclockwise until loose. Run the stripped cable end into the now visible hole. Close the terminal by turning it clockwise. The cable has now been clamped in place.
7. Connect the cables to the other speaker in the same way.
8. Connect the speaker cables to your amplier/AV receiver
or multi-channel active subwoofer. The operating instructions of the appliance should contain notes on this.

Problem Possible cause Solution Playback is noisy. In general, the speaker is very low-noise. In
most cases, the speaker system with excep­tional resolution in the high range area can expose the poor quality of a signal source (e.g. from MP3 les).
Ensure that the source is sending a clear signal.
The sound seems dull. The speakers have been connected with the
wrong poles.
Verify the correct connection of the cables for all speak­ers.
