from the power supply. For this reason, connect it to an
easily accessible socket so that you can quickly discon-
nect it from the power supply in the event of faults.

emitted, especially if a subwoofer is activated and 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 control 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.

anymore, stop using the product and store it in a
place, which is not accessible to children.

lowed or ingested in another way, seek immediate
medical attention.
