CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Cleaning your speaker system

module, and Interface module
with a soft, damp cloth. You can use an ammonia-free window cleaner on a soft cloth to
maintain the finish.
• Do not use any sprays near the speakers. Do not use any solvents, chemicals, or cleaning
solutions containing alcohol, ammonia, or abrasives.
• Do not allow liquids to spill into any openings.
• The speaker grilles require no special care, although you may vacuum them carefully,
if necessary.

Troubleshooting
Problem What to do
No power, no
LEDs
• Make sure the Acoustimass
®
module power switch (230V units only) is turned on.
• Make sure the power cord is inserted securely into the Acoustimass module and plugged firmly
into an operating AC wall outlet (mains).
• Make sure the Interface module is plugged into the Acoustimass module properly.
• Unplug the Acoustimass module power cord from the AC wall outlet for one minute, then recon-
nect it. This allows the unit to reset itself. Check that the red Standby LED on the front of the
Interface module is now lit.
No sound • Make sure the CineMate speaker system is turned on. The green LED on the front of the Inter-
face module should be lit.
• Increase the volume.
• Check to see if the sound source is muted. Press the remote control Mute button to unmute it.
• Make sure the Interface module and speaker cables are both firmly connected to the jacks on
the Acoustimass module.
• Check the speaker connections.
• Unplug the power cord from the outlet for one minute, then reconnect it. This allows the system
to reset itself.
• Check that the correct TV/Video input has been selected. See “Selecting the TV input” on
page 16.
• Check the connections from the Interface module to the TV or other source.
• Check that the TV’s audio output is enabled. See your TV owner’s guide for information.
• If the TV’s audio output is VARIABLE (VAR), make sure the TV’s internal speakers are turned off
and the TV volume is turned up.
