Safety Instructions
1.
General information
• Please read and follow these safety instructions.
• Keep them safe for future reference.
• Observe all warnings in the manual. Please check
the
stand for damage before use. The tand must
be in perfectworking condition. Damaged parts may lead to personal injury.
2. Use
only
as
directed
• Assemble the stand according
to
the instructions in the manual.
• These speaker stands are equipped with spikes. They are explicitly provided for levelling the stand.
For levelling on an uneven floor, unscrew the spikes or by 2-3 turns
of
thread. The speaker should
always be in perfect vertical alignment: the stability
of
the speaker must not be compromised
by
using spikes
as
the speaker maytip-over.

WARNING! Please ensure the product is perfectly stable to avoid injury from tip-over. Please note, that
stability can be increased
by
using the included spikes on carpeted surfaces. However, the mounting
of
spikes
must be carried out carefully due to their very sharp ends which may cause injuries. The stability on slippery
floors can be increased
by
using Velcro fastening tape
or
double-sided adhesive tape.
4. Cleaning
NOTE: Clean only with soft, smooth cloth or with a dust brush. Do
not
use scouring agents, alcohol,
benzene, furniture polish
or
other agents for cleaning!
