Unpacking

Care must be taken at all times when handling the RS W12 due to the extreme weight of the product. We recommend a two-person lift wherever appropriate.

The feet/spike assemblies and mains power cord/s are contained in separate protective cardboard sleeves and should be removed.

Please select the power cord appropriate to your Country/location. Mains voltage selection for 120 or 230 Vac operation is electronically auto selected.

To remove the RS W12 from its carton place some protective material on the floor and having removed any items of packing from the top of the pack carefully invert the carton. (Also see icons on the carton). Gradually pull the carton upwards to expose the subwoofer, which will be presented with its base uppermost. Remove fixing tape from plastic bag and expose the base/cabinet to allow fitting of the spiked feet into the M10 threaded inserts as described on page 6
