Daily use
When you have finished setting up the loudspeakers as described on 
the following pages, connect the entire system to the mains. The 
loudspeakers are designed to be left in standby when not in use. 
Switching on and off 
When you switch on your system, 
the loudspeaker switches on simul
taneously, and the indicator light 
shines green. 
When you switch off your system, 
or mute the sound, the indicator 
light turns red.
Cleaning 
Clean the loudspeaker surfaces 
using a soft, lintfree cloth which 
you have dipped in lukewarm 
water and wrung firmly. 
Never use alcohol or other solvents to
clean any parts of the loudspeaker!
Loudspeaker protection
The loudspeaker is equipped with a
thermal protection system which
prevents overheating. If an error 
occurs – or the speaker units 
 become overheated – the system 
automatically switches the 
loudspeaker to standby, and the 
 indicator light turns yellow. 
To restore the situation:
> Disconnect the loudspeaker from
the mains.
> Allow the system time to reset
(approximately 3–5 minutes).
> Reconnect the loudspeaker to
the mains again.
Should the problem persist, contact
your Bang & Olufsen retailer.
