[. . . ] UB YST -SW 500 1 Subwoofer System OWNER'S MANUAL I IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 1 CAUTION RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT OPEN Read these instructions. Install in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. [. . . ] Caution Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other as this could damage the subwoofer or the amplifier, or both of them. How to Connect: Red: positive (+) Black: negative (­) <U. S. A. , Canada, Australia and Korean models only> Banana Plug connections are also possible. 1 1 Loosen the knob. 10 mm (3/8") insulation from the speaker wires. ] 3 Tighten the knob and secure the wire. 2 2 1 3 1Tighten the terminal knob. 2Simply insert the Banana Plug connector into the terminal. E-7 Connecting to H. P. F. OUTPUT terminals for connections with the amplifier will improve sound quality of your speaker system. (High-Pass Filter) OUTPUT terminals of the subwoofer cut off frequencies below the selected frequency point from the input signals, and output high frequencies only. By connecting this terminal with the MAIN IN terminals of the amplifier, the main speakers reproduce high frequencies only. This will make the whole sound quality clear by preventing sound muddying between the main speakers and the subwoofer. * This connection can be made if your amplifier has PRE OUT and MAIN IN terminals or you are using separate amplifiers (pre-amplifier and main amplifier).

Notes Never connect any power cable other than the included one to the subwoofer. Otherwise, it may result in causing fire or an electrical shock. Do not connect the included power cable to any other unit than this subwoofer. (U. S. A. model) To AC outlet POWER ON OFF AC IN <U. K. and Australia models> Plug in the subwoofer to the wall outlet.

Notes Use only AA, R6, UM-3 batteries for replacement. (See the illustration inside the battery compartment. ) Remove the batteries if the remote control will not be used for an extended period of time. If batteries leak, dispose of them immediately. Avoid touching the leaked material or letting it come in contact with clothing, etc. [. . . ] Turn down the volume on the amplifier etc. connected to the subwoofer or cut off the power to other unused equipment. Change position of the main unit. The subwoofer turns into the standby mode unexpectedly. The subwoofer turns on unexpectedly. The level of input signal is too low. [. . . ]
