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 Loewe klang 5 may be ob-
structed. 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 magneti-
cally 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 surface of the Loewe klang 5 made of aluminium with a damp, soft
and clean cloth only (without any abrasive cleaning agent).
The housing of the Loewe klang 5 is fabric covered. Vacuum the surface regu-
larly 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.
