Elac Varro Dual Reference DS1000 10" 2000W Subwoofer (Gloss Black) - Manual (Page 11)

1. General information
• Please read and follow these safety instructions.
• Keep them safe for future reference.
• Observe all warnings on the speaker and in the manual. Please check the speaker for damage
before use. The speaker must be in perfect working condition. Damaged parts may lead to
personal injury.
2. Use only as directed
• Connect the speaker(s) according to the instructions in the manual.
• Many ELAC speakers are equipped with spikes and/or anti-slip feet. They are explicitly provided
for leveling the speaker. For leveling on an uneven floor, unscrew the spikes or anti-slip feet 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 or anti-slip feet as the speaker may tip-over.
3. Location
• Install the speakers on a level surface only.
• When choosing the location of these speakers do not place them in locations that are:
• In direct sunlight
• Very humid
• Prone to vibrations
• Exceptionally hot or cold
• Near CRT Televisions (the speakers are not magnetically shielded and may cause color
issues with a CRT based TV).sa
• Close to magnetic cards (Since the speakers are not magnetically shielded placing
magnetic cards such as credit cards or commuter cards may cause them to fail).
4. Overload
Please ensure the product is perfectly stable to avoid injury from tip-over. Please note, that
stability can be increased by using 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. Do not install the speaker near any heat sources such as radiators, heating valves, stoves,
or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat, or in areas where there is a risk of
explosion.
• Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Do not install the speaker in a closed rack or in a closed cupboard.
• Do not put burning candles on or near the speaker.
• Do not install the speaker near transformers because electromagnetic stray fields can cause hum
noise on woofers.
• In combination with certain materials / lacquers / material surfaces, anti-slip feet or spike washers
may cause colored imprints on the surfaces.
