AC Power Connection

WARNING! The power cord should not be installed, removed, or left detached from the subwoofer while the other end is con- nected to an AC power source.

The IEC power cord should be firmly inserted into the AC power receptacle on the rear connection panel of the Dynamo, then to any convenient AC wall outlet. The Dynamo also integrates a signal sensing power supply that automati- cally switches off after sensing no music signal for several minutes (this will occur when the power switch is set to 'Auto').

Your Dynamo subwoofer is wired for the power service supplied in the country of original consumer sale. The AC power rating applicable to a particular unit is specified both on the packing carton and on the serial number plate attached to the subwoofer.

If you remove your Dynamo subwoofer from the country of original sale, be certain that AC power supplied in any subsequent location is suitable before connecting and oper- ating the subwoofer. Substantially impaired performance or severe damage may occur to the Dynamo subwoofer if operation is attempted from an incorrect AC power source.

Replacing the Fuse

If the fuse in your Dynamo 1000 should require changing, turn off and unplug your Dynamo 1000 before removing the fuse. Replace the bad fuse with a matching T 5A L 250V (T 2.5A L 250V if you are in a region using 230V).

Break-In

Our custom made woofers require approximately 50 hours of break-in at moderate listening levels before their optimal performance occurs. This will factor in on any critical listen- ing and judgment.

Optional Wireless Connection

The Dynamo 1000 incorporates a wireless receiver for use with the MartinLogan SWT-1 Subwoofer Wireless Transmitter (sold separately and available from your autho- rized dealer or the Xtatic shop at www.MartinLogan.com). To establish a wireless connection, connect a transmitter to your electronics and follow these two easy steps.

1.Press the Dynamo 1000’s sync button once. The LED will blink quickly.

2Press the sync button on the SWT-1 transmitter once. The LED will blink quickly. If pairing has completed suc- cessfully both LEDs will stop blinking and remain on. Please note: If a link is not established after 10 seconds this transmitter’s LED will start blinking slowly. Repeat both steps.

WARNING! When operating wirelessly this subwoofer may be susceptible to RF interference in the 2.4GHz bandwidth from microwave ovens and wireless devices such as WiFi systems, video game consoles, cordless telephones, blue tooth devices, and baby monitors. Generally, this issue (popping noises) is easily resolved by physically separating problematic devices from one another—a distance as little as two feet will often alleviate the interference. In the case of microwave ovens, the inter- ference will only occur when the microwave is operating.
