Danger to hearing!
Loud noise may lead to hear-
ing loss. There is a potential risk of sudden very high noise pressure especially when ac­tivating the device which is set to full vol­ume. This may have psychological conse­quences and also cause physical injury. Children and pets are particularly at risk.
• Set your signal source unit volume con-
trol to a low setting.
• When the volume is set high, always
keep a certain distance from the unit and never place your ear directly on the speaker.
• To avoid damage to health, avoid ex-
tended listening at high volume.
Danger
Danger of injury/ damage!
Incorrect location may result in
damage.
• Never use the unit unmounted in ve-
hicles, in unstable locations, on wob­bly tripods or furniture, on underdimen­sioned brackets etc. The device could tip or fall down and cause injury to persons or be damaged itself.
• Arrange the unit so that it cannot be
knocked over accidentally and make sure that the power cord does not pose a trip hazard.
• Do not place the unit near sources of
heat (e.g. heaters, ovens, other heat generating equipment such as amplifi ­ers etc.).
Attention
Fire hazard!
Improper use may lead to dam­age or fi re.
• Do not place open fl ames such as burn­ing candles or similar on the unit.
• Do not place the unit in direct sunlight.
• Ensure suffi cient ventilation.
• Do not cover the vents with curtains, blankets, newspapers or similar. Heat build-up inside the unit can shorten its lifetime.

Audio input
You can connect almost any audio source, i.e. computers, MP3 players (with/with­out dock), game consoles, televisions etc., to the 3.5 mm jack plug Line In 5. The source device only requires an output with a line level. Such outputs are confi g­ured either as stereo RCA jacks or as 3.5 mm jack plug. You connect these devices to the jack Line In 5 with a suitable con­nector cable. You can purchase connector cables in our webshop in the “Accessories” area. Once the iTeufel
Air is activated, play­back begins automatically after a few seconds. Please note that music played via the stream has priority over line input.
Volume
The volume buttons 2 and 3 are only ac­tive if you enabled the option “Allow iTunes audio control from remote speak­ers” (see next page) or have connected an external player to the input jack Line In 5 with a cable. Otherwise, set the volume on your iPad, iPhone, iPod touch or via iTunes.

Care and cleaning
Protecting the environment
Clean the device regularly with a soft, damp microfi bre cloth. Please be abso­lutely sure to observe the following notes in the process:
Danger
Risk of electric shock!
In contact with live parts, wa­ter can lead to electric shock or
short circuit.
• Ensure that no liquid penetrates the unit.
• Before cleaning the device, disconnect the power plug from the socket.
Attention
Risk of damage!
The wrong cleaner could dam­age the sensitive case surface.
• If possible, only use plain water without any additives. A mild soapy solution is suitable for removing stubborn stains.
• Do not in any case use aggressive cleaning agents, spirit, thinner, petrol or the like for cleaning.
Disposal of the unit
Used units must not be dis­posed of with household waste!
If the unit is no longer opera-
tional, every consumer is re­quired by law to dispose of used devic­es separately from household waste, e.g.
at a collection point run by the commu­nal authority borough. In this way it is en­sured, that used devices are properly re­cycled and that negative consequences on the environment are avoided. For this reason, electrical equipment is la­belled with the symbol shown here.
