IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ INSTRUCTIONS - All safety and oper-
ating instructions should be read before the
PC Works FourPointSurround amplified
subwoofer/satellite system is operated.
RETAIN INSTRUCTIONS - The safety and
operating instructions should be retained
for future reference.
HEED WARNINGS - All warnings on the
subwoofer and in the operating instruc-
tions should be adhered to.
FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS - All operating
and use instructions should be followed.
CLEANING - Unplug the subwoofer from the
wall outlet or other power source before
cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or
aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for
cleaning.
ATTACHMENTS - Do not use attachments
not recommended by Cambridge
SoundWorks as they may cause hazards.
WATER AND MOISTURE - Do not use the
subwoofer near water—for example, near
a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, or
laundry tub; in a wet basement; or near a
swimming pool; and the like.
ACCESSORIES - Do not place the PC Works
FourPointSurround system on an unstable
cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The
subwoofer or satellites may fall, causing
serious injury to a child or adult, and
serious damage to the product. Use only
with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table
recommended by Cambridge Sound-
Works, or sold with the product. Any mount-
ing of the satellites or subwoofer should
follow the manufacturer’s instructions, and
should use a mounting accessory recom-
mended by Cambridge SoundWorks.
VENTILATION - Slots and openings in the
cabinet are provided for ventilation and to
ensure reliable operation of the subwoofer
and to prevent it from overheating, and
these openings must not be blocked or
covered. The openings should never be
blocked by placing the product on a bed,
sofa, rug, or other similar surface. The
subwoofer should not be placed in a built-
in installation such as a bookcase or rack
unless proper ventilation is provided or
Cambridge SoundWorks’ instructions
have been adhered to.
HEAT - The subwoofer should be situated
away from heat sources such as radia-
tors, heat registers, stoves, and other
products (including amplifiers) that pro-
duce heat.
POWER SOURCES - The subwoofer should
be operated only from the type of power
source indicated on the marking label. If
you are not sure of the type of power
supply to your home, consult your product
dealer or local power company. For prod-
ucts intended to operate from battery
power, or other sources, refer to the oper-
ating instructions.
POLARIZATION - The subwoofer may be
equipped with a polarized alternating-cur-
rent line plug (a plug having one blade
wider than the other). This plug will fit into
the power outlet only one way. This is a
safety feature. If you are unable to insert
the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing
the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit,
contact your electrician to replace your
obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety
purpose of the polarized plug.
POWER-CORD PROTECTION - Power-sup-
ply cords should be routed so that they are
not likely to be walked on or pinched by
items placed upon or against them, pay-
ing particular attention to cords at plugs,
convenience receptacles, and the point
where they exit from the subwoofer.
LIGHTNING - For added protection for the
PC Works FourPointSurround system dur-
ing a lightning storm, or when it is left
unattended and unused for long periods
of time, unplug it from the wall outlet. This
will prevent damage to the subwoofer due
to lightning and power-line surges.
OVERLOADING - Do not overload wall out-
lets, extension cords, or integral conve-
nience receptacles as this can result in a
risk of fire or electric shock.
OBJECT AND LIQUID ENTRY - Never push
objects of any kind into the subwoofer
through openings as they may touch dan-
gerous voltage points or short out parts
that could result in a fire or electric shock.
Never spill liquid of any kind on the sub-
woofer.
SERVICING - Do not attempt to service the
subwoofer yourself as opening or remov-
ing covers may expose you to dangerous
voltage or other hazards. Refer all servic-
ing to qualified service personnel.
DAMAGE REQUIRING SERVICE - Unplug
the subwoofer from the wall outlet or other
power source and refer servicing to quali-
fied service personnel under the following
conditions:
a) When the power-supply cord or plug is
damaged.
b) If liquid has been spilled, or objects
have fallen into the subwoofer.
c) If the subwoofer has been exposed to
rain or water.
d) If the subwoofer does not operate nor-
mally by following the operating instruc-
tions; or exhibits a distinct change in per-
formance.
e) If the product has been dropped or
damaged in any way.
REPLACEMENT PARTS - When replace-
ment parts are required, be sure the ser-
vice technician has used replacement
parts specified by Cambridge SoundWorks
or have the same characteristics as the
original part. Unauthorized substitutions
may result in fire, electric shock, or other
hazards.
SAFETY CHECK - Upon completion of any
service or repairs to the PC Works
FourPointSurround system, ask the ser-
vice technician to perform safety checks
to determine that the
PC Works Four Point
Surround system is in proper operating
condition.
WALL OR CEILING MOUNTING - The
PC Works FourPointSurround satellites
should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only
as recommended by Cambridge
SoundWorks.
