[. . . ] Caution : to prenvent yhe risk of electric shock, do not remove cover (or back). Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time. [. . . ] Frame geometry as well as colours can be severely distorted by a magnetic field if the loudspeaker is placed to close to the cathode ray tube. Generally, all sensitive media (audio tapes, video tapes, magnetic data storage, projector and CRTS overheadprojector) should not be placed close to any non-shielded loudspeaker. Start-up and shut-down Turn the power switch on the back of the unit to the "On" position. Start-up can also be attained (ex: setting parameters of the subwoofer without an analog signal, see following chapter) by pressing the button on the remote. In absence of an input audio signal, stand-by is as well automatic after approximately a period of 15 minutes. stand-by can also be attained by pressing on the button on the remote. When absent for several days, it is recommended to turn the power switch to "Off" on the back of the amplifier. Adjusting the volume Adjusting the volume (button ) allows a proper output level of the subwoofer compared to those of the other speakers in the system. Establishing this by remote control permits a very precise fine-tuning of the level according to the nature of the listening material. "Night" mode This type of digital, dynamic compression of the signal permits the user to avoid large differences in playback level between weak and powerful signals. Weak signals are increased so that the bass is more present and satisfactory, even at low listening levels, while powerful signals are decreased in amplitude. This function allows for an excellent listening comfort in bass response, even at very low listening levels, and to avoid disturbing the neighbors or others nearby. Program application Three digital memory settings are accessible on the remote control (button , or ). the factory settings correspond generally to a range of applications. The "Hi-fi" mode corresponds to a setting, which is as linear as possible, with a wellintegrated and deep bass. All these settings can be modified at will. Consult the table at the end of the manual to return to the factory settings. Thanks to the ease of use of the remote, one can control at distance all the functions in order to immediately compare the different choices without leaving the listening zone, which allows the installer to tune with great precision. The digital display of different values of filtering or correction allows one to easily recognize and establish the favorite settings (this should be saved in writing at the end of the manual). Navigation One only has to push once the button "Set-up" to enter the first mode of the menu. Pushing the button several times then displays the different types of programming. Selecting a setting is as easy as scrolling through the choices .
