• Make sure that the correct voltage
is present. You can find more
information about this on the rating
plate.
• Check the device regularly for
damage.
Immediately disconnect the mains
plug and do not operate the device
if its housing, mains adapter or
mains cord is defective or exhibits
other visible damages.

incorporated, promptly consult a
physician.
CAUTION
Leaking battery acid may lead to
chemical burns.
• Do not allow battery acid to come
into contact with skin, eyes or
mucous membranes. In the event
of contact with acid, immediately
flush the applicable areas with
plenty of clean water and consult a
physician if necessary.
CAUTION

extended listening at high volumes.
• When the volume is set high,
always keep a certain distance
from the device and never place
your ears directly on the speaker.
• If your amplifier is set to full

CAUTION
The isolation pads can produce
discolouration on sensitive
surfaces.
• On parquet, varnished wood and
similar surfaces, you should stick
felt gliders to the rubber feet of the

battery compart-
ment, take the
allen key (5) and
carefully screw
the lid off – it is
slightly under
tension from the
springs.
2. If applicable,
remove the old
batteries and
dispose of them
in an environ-
mentally-friendly
manner.
3. Slide the new batteries into the
battery compartment according
to the image on the back of the
remote control.
4. Screw the lid back closed – it only
fits the right way around and is
slightly under tension from the
springs.

NOTICE
If the device is subjected
to warm temperatures after
being cold (e.g. after trans-
port), condensation may occur
inside of it.
–In this case, wait approx. two
hours before you connect
and activate it.
The isolation pads can
produce discolouration on
sensitive surfaces.
–On parquet, varnished wood
and similar surfaces, you
should stick felt gliders to the
rubber feet of the device or
put a blanket under it. This
will prevent discolouration of
the floor over the long term.
Location
CAUTION
Risk of injury/damage!
–Pay attention to the
maximum carrying capacity
of the Cinedeck of 35 kg in
the process.
Simply place your TV set on the
Cinedeck.
Location tips
• Select a stable, level base whose
carrying capacity is adequate for
the Cinedeck and the TV set.
• The divece uses side-firing
speakers. For the best sound-
quality ensure the speakers are
able to play freely. Do not locate
the device in a side-closed cabin/
closet.
• Make sure that the environment is
clean and free from dust.
• Select a location away from heat
sources and direct sunlight.
• Do not place any objects on the
cables.

15• Cinedeck
CAUTION
Risk of injury/damage!
–Lay the cables so that
they do not pose a tripping
hazard.
TV set
If your TV is equipped with an ARC
capable HDMI jack, connect it via the
HDMI TV jack (9). You will need an
ARC capable HDMI cable for this.
The ARC (audio return channel) HDMI
function plays the television audio via
HDMI. With some TV sets, this func-
tion must be activated in the menu
and in most cases, only one HDMI
connection is ARC capable (see the
user manual for the TV set).
If your TV set does not support the
ARC HDMI function, you can also
connect it to the analogue AUX IN
(11) or to the digital OPT IN (10) input
depending on the configuration.
HDMI source
You can connect a source device with
digital sound and picture to the HDMI
IN jack (8) (e.g. a sat receiver, Blu ray
player, game console).
You do not also have to connect this
source device to your TV set. The
video signal from these devices is
looped through and forwarded to the
television set via HDMI TV (9).
Connecting
Optical-digital source
You can connect the optical digital
sound output of a source device to
the OPT IN jack (10). You will need
an optical cable with a TOSLINK plug
for this. Your source device requires
either an optical 3.5 mm plug or also
a TOSLINK plug.
(7) (8) (9) (10) (11)
Analogue source
You can connect a source device with
analogue sound (e.g. a CD player
or TV set) to the AUX IN jack (11).
You will need a stereo cable with a
3.5-mm jack plug to do so.
USB sound card
The Cinedeck features an integrated
USB sound card for audio output from
a PC. To do so, connect the PC to the
USB jack (7) via an USB cable (USB A
to Micro B). You can find information
about playback from the PC at„USB
Sound Card“ on page 28.
Via this USB jack, you can also load
software updates to your Cinedeck
(see „Software Update“ on page
30).
