Additional Safety Recommendations; Important Notice - Sonus Faber Gravis Serie Bedienungsanleitung

2.1 ADDITIONAL SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS

1. Install the speakers in order to achieve the best possible stability. In case the speaker is
placed on a surface other than the floor, firstly check that it can support the weight of the
subwoofer(s). Also check that there is enough friction between the speaker and the surface in
order to avoid any movement caused through vibrations whilst in use. Where needed rubber
adhesive feet can be purchased from all good hardware stores.
2. Follow the connection diagram suggested in the instructions manual. If in doubt, contact your
dealer.
3. Whilst the audio system is operative at high volumes avoid staying in close proximity to the
speaker system. This can cause permanent damage to your hearing Children should maintain
a safe distance from the speaker system of at least 50 cm.
4. The subwoofer unit produces an electromagnetic field which is harmless to humans and pets,
but they can cause disturbances in the correct functioning of electronic equipment such as
monitors or cathode tube TVs when placed in close proximity. If this occurs, simply and slowly
distance one from the other. As a further precaution, it is not advisable to place credit cards
or similar magnetically read objects on top of the speaker system.
5. The technology behind the functioning of the speakers is based on the principles of
electromagnetism, and thus the user should avoid operating equipment that generates strong
electromagnetic fields as these could affect the correct functioning of the speaker. Avoid
placing transmitting devices such as mobile phones, cordless phones, intercom systems etc.
on top of the speaker systems.
6. Keep amplifier-speaker connection and power (mains) cables separate. Mains cables carry
an alternating voltage at a frequency of 50 Hz (60 Hz in Japan and the USA) and an intensity
that can be high, and thus produce an electromagnetic field even at audio frequency around
them. In the case of coupling of these two types of cables an annoying hum noise will be
perceived through the subwoofer. If this should occur, do provide an adequate distance
between the cables.
7. Fuse links: various faults in subwoofers or active speakers may cause the fuse to blow. If the
fuse blows, only replace it with the correct fuse type and rating as shown on the subwoofer's
backplate, close to the fuse holder.
