Bang & Olufsen BeoLab 5 - User Guide - Manual (Page 6)

Setting up BeoLab 5
We recommend that you follow this
procedure:
– Disconnect your audio or video system from
the mains;
– Make all the connections as described in
Cable connections (pp. 8–10);
– Connect the loudspeakers to the mains;
– If necessary, program the loudspeakers to
your audio or video system, as described in
Adapt BeoLab 5 to your system (p. 11);
– Let the loudspeakers perform the Adaptive
Bass Control calibration, as described in
Adapt BeoLab 5 to your room (pp. 12–13);
– If you wish to activate the PIN code system,
you may now do so. This is explained in
Use the PIN code system (pp. 14–16);
– Connect your audio or video system to the
mains again.
Cautions
– Do not attempt to open the loudspeaker. Leave
such operations to qualified service personnel!
– Make sure that the loudspeaker is placed and
connected in accordance with the instructions in
this Guide.
– Place the loudspeaker on the floor.
– Do not place any items on top of the
loudspeaker.
– Do not touch the two speaker domes! See
Cleaning BeoLab 5 (p. 4) for further information.
– The loudspeaker is designed for indoor use in dry,
domestic environments only, and for use within
a temperature range of 10–40º C (50–105º F).
Handling BeoLab 5: Due to its heavy weight, any
moving or lifting should always be done by two
persons. ‘Safe areas’ to hold when moving/lifting
the loudspeaker are indicated in the illustration.
Do not move the loudspeaker without lifting it clear
of the floor, as damage to the floor may result!
Before you start ...
– If you connect the loudspeaker to a non-Bang &
Olufsen system, you will need a Beo4 remote
control (optional accessory), in order to be able
to operate the loudspeaker, e.g. switching on
and off, turning the volume level up or down,
etc.
– Volume levels are adjusted in the built-in
loudspeaker amplifiers, not in your audio or video
system, and we recommend that you keep any
tone control settings neutral.
– Remember that all loudspeakers in a setup must
be connected to the mains.
Warning
– Prolonged listening at a high volume level may
cause hearing damages!
