Page 14

Will my electric bill go ‘sky high’ by leaving my subwoofer plugged in all the time?

No. The MLT-2 5.1 subwoofer, when the power switch is set to ‘Auto On’, will draw about 12 watts when idle and only 12 watts in standby mode.

Should I unplug my subwoofer during a thunderstorm?

Yes, or before. It’s a good idea to disconnect all of your audio/video components during stormy weather.
