Vienna Acoustics Subson - Manual (Page 3)

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS VERY
CAREFULLY BEFORE OPERATING SUBSON:
1. HEED WARNINGS. Observe all warnings on the subwoofer and in the operating
instructions.
2. FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS. Follow all operating and use instructions.
3. DAMAGE REQUIRING SERVICE. The product should be serviced by qualified
personnel if:
a) The product does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a marked change in
operation.
b) The power cord or plug has been damaged.
c) Objects or liquid have fallen into the product.
d) The product has been exposed to rain.
e) The product has been dropped or the enclosure damaged.
4. SERVICING. Do not attempt to service SUBSON beyond that described in the
operating instructions. All other servicing should be referred to qualified service
personnel.
5. INDOOR USE. SUBSON is designed for indoor use in dry, domestic environments
only, and for use within a temperature range of 10 - 40 ° C (50 – 105 ° F).
6. OBJECTS AND LIQUID ENTRY. Do not let objects or liquids fall into the product.
Do not place a vessel containing liquid on top of the product.
7. WATER AND MOISTURE. Do not use SUBSON near water, for example near a
bathtub, or in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool.
8. WALL OR CEILING MOUNTING. SUBSON is neither suitable for mounting into the
wall, nor for mounting on the ceiling, since one of the aluminium parts is working as
heatsink. If you choose a position on the wall or on a shelf for SUBSON, the subwoofer
must be firmly secured into position. Otherwise the subwoofer could fall down because
of vibrations causing it to move, or “walk.”
9. VENTILATION. Site the subwoofer so that its location or position does not interfere
with its proper ventilation. Especially the rear of SUBSON should be uncovered, since
the heat sinking is mounted on the inner side of the rear plate of the cabinet.
The subwoofer should not be placed in a built-in installation, such as a bookcase or
cabinet, that may impede the flow of air.
10. HEAT. Site SUBSON away from heat sources such as radiators, heaters, stoves, or
other appliances (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
11. POWER SOURCES. Connect the subwoofer to an AC power outlet only of the
voltage type marked on SUBSON (this will vary depending on the voltage in the
country of sale and use).
12. POWER CORD PROTECTION. Route power cords so that they are not likely to be
walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular
attention to cords at plugs, power sockets, and at the point where they exit from the
subwoofer.
