INTRODUCTION
Check your system carefully. If it has been damaged in transit, report the damage immediately by calling your Acoustic Research dealer and/or the trucking firm that delivered it. Observe all warnings and cautions.
WARNING
To prevent fire or shock hazard, DO NOT EXPOSE this subwoofer system to rain or excessive moisture.
We recommend that you not operate your speakers or subwoofer with the bass, treble and loudness controls set to full boost. This will place undue strain on the electronics and speakers and could damage them.
The volume control setting on your TV is not a specific indication of the overall loudness level at which the system can be played, regardless of where the volume control is set.
Whenever changing cables, pulling plugs, etc., ALWAYS TURN OFF ALL EQUIPMENT including the Subwoofer. This prevents transients from enter- ing the speakers and prevents elec- trical energy from reaching you. Keep all connections out of the reach of children.
To avoid electrical shock, DO NOT
