Colour Indication
Solid green Normal state, normal operation
Blinking green GLM is interrogating the monitor
Blinking green every 10 sec. Monitor is in an ISS power saving sleep
state
Blinking red Power amplifier overload protection is
active (audio is modified because of
protection)

clearance behind, above and on both sides of the monitor is 50
mm (2 in). When 8361A is installed in a recess, the recess space
must be ventilated sufficiently to remove the heat.
Mounting and Placing Monitors
Mounting Options
The Isolation Positioner/Decoupler™ (Iso-Pod™) stand allows
tilting of the monitor and isolates vibrations. As delivered from the
factory, the Iso-Pod retainer spring is attached to the bottom of the
enclosure for vertical orientation. With horizontal positioning, use
the separate Iso-Pod horizontal mount retainer spring (included
in packaging). Use the screws in the mount retainer spring when
attaching the horizontal mount retainer spring. The spring must be
mounted offset towards the reflex port to bring the Iso-Pod to the
enclosure centerline (See Figure 6).
Aim the acoustic axis of the monitor towards the listening
position (see Figure 4). Place monitors symmetrically and at
equal distances from the listening position. Preference should be
made in placing the listening position on the left-right centerline
of the room (see Figure 5). If a monitor is placed far (1.0-2.2
m, 3-7 ft) from the acoustically hard wall behind the monitor, a
reflection from the wall may reduce bass output. Avoid these
distances.
Place monitors away from acoustically reflective surfaces.
Reflections from desks, cabinets, computer monitors and such
objects can colour audio and blur sound images. Place monitors
on stands behind and above a mixing console as this usually
improves audio compared to placing monitors on a meter bridge.
Ceiling and wall mounts are available through Genelec
dealers. Monitor mounts attach to four M6 x 10 mm threaded
holes on the enclosure back. Consult the Genelec Accessories
Catalogue at www.genelec.com or distributor/dealer for
information.
Front Panel Light
The light on the front panel is normally green. Red and yellow
colours indicate special situations. See Table 2.
Use with Subwoofers
Genelec recommends 7300 series subwoofers and the W371
Adaptive Woofer System for 8361A. Consult the on-line Genelec
Product Selection Tool at www.genelec.com.
Maintenance
Do not open the monitor enclosure. Opening the monitor
may lead to loss of the monitor calibration and may damage
components. There are no user serviceable parts inside.
Maintenance or repair can only be done by Genelec certified
service.
Safety Considerations
The 8361A follows international safety standards. To ensure
safe operation, the following warnings and precautions must be
observed:
• Servicing and adjustment must only be performed by
certified Genelec service personnel. The monitor enclosure
must not be opened.
• Use the product only with a mains cable having a
protective ground terminal and with a mains connection
with a protective earth terminal. Failing to do so may lead to
personal injury.
• To prevent fire and electric shock, do not expose the unit
to water or moisture.
• Do not place objects filled with liquid, such as vases, on
the monitor or near it.
• Note that the device is not disconnected from the AC
mains service unless the power cable is removed from the
monitor or the mains outlet.
• Free flow of air behind and around the monitor maintains
sufficient cooling. Do not obstruct airflow around the
monitor.
WARNING!
The 8361A is capable of producing sound pressure levels in
excess of 85 dB, which may cause hearing damage. Sound
exposure level integrated over eight contiguous hours should be
limited to Leq=80dB(A) to reduce the risk of permanent hearing
damage. For each 3 dB increase in this sound level, half this
exposure time.
Guarantee
The Genelec 8361A is guaranteed for two years against
manufacturing faults or defects altering performance. You can
get an additional three-year guarantee covering spare part costs

its offset mounting towards the reflex port.
