and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or
the third prong are provided for your safety. If

pinched particularly at plugs, convenience
receptacles, and the point where they exit from
the apparatus.

the manufacturer.
11 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.
12 Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms
or when unused for long periods of time.
13 Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
Servicing is required when the apparatus has
been damaged in any way, such as
power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid
has been spilled or objects have fallen into the
apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to
rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or
has been dropped.
14 To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not
expose your soundbar to rain, moisture,
dripping, or splashing, and no objects filled with
liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on them.
15 The wall plug is the disconnecting device. The
plug must remain readily operable.
Soundbar precautions
Placement
• The soundbar cabinet is made out of plastic and is
therefore sensitive to extreme temperatures and
humidity, do not put it in locations subject to
direct sunlight or in humid places, such as near an
air conditioner, humidifier, bathroom, or kitchen.
• Do not put water or other liquids close to the
soundbar. If liquid is spilled over the soundbar, it
may be damaged.
• The soundbar should be placed on a sturdy, flat
surface that is free from vibration, or mounted on
a wall (see “Installing the wall mount bracket” on
page 6). Do not put the soundbar on an uneven or
unstable surface, where it may fall and cause
damage.
Warning
To reduce the risk of electric
shock, do not disassemble. No
user serviceable parts inside.
Refer servicing to qualified
service personnel.
To reduce the risk of fire or
electric shock, do not expose
your soundbar to rain or
moisture. Dangerous high
voltages are present inside the
enclosure.
Do not open the cabinet.
Caution
To prevent electric shock, match the wide blade on the power
cord plug to the wide slot on an electric outlet. If the plug does
not fit, consult a licensed electrician to replace the obsolete
outlet. Do not modify the power cord plug, or you will defeat this
safety feature.
When replacing the direct plug-in power supply or a separable,
cord-connected power supply, the replacement must be an exact
duplicate or one which has been recommended by the
manufacturer.
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an equilateral
triangle is intended to alert you to the presence of uninsulated
dangerous voltage within your player’s enclosure that may be of
sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to
persons.
