ImportTanT SafeTy precauTlonS

• Please read through the instruction manual carefully before starting to use the device. This manual contains important information concerning operation and safety aspects. It is imperative you observe all of the information. Keep the manual in a safe location.
• WARNING NOTICES: All of the warning symbols on the speaker, accessories and in the instruction manual itself must be adhered to.
• EXPOSURE TO HEAT: Only operate the speakers and accessories in a temperature range from 10°C to 40°C.
• The speaker should not be positioned near heat sources (heaters, ovens, radiant heaters, naked flames, etc.). When setting up close to an amplifier a minimum distance of 10 cm must be maintained.
• The aluminium plate of the amplifier at the rear of the device serve to cool the built-in amplifier; for this reason, they must not be covered (e.g. by a curtain).
• EFFECT OF MOISTURE: The speaker should not be exposed to dripping or splash water. Neither should it be used to support vases or other containers filled with liquid. Do not expose the speaker to water or high levels of humidity. There is a danger of electric shock. In the event of contact with moisture or liquids remove the mains adapter immediately.
• FOREIGN MATERIAL: Ensure that no foreign material enters through the speaker openings and into the interior. This could trigger short circuits and even result in electric shock and fire.
• CLEANING: Please use a soft, dry cloth with no cleaning agents, sprays or chemical solvents, as these could damage the surfaces.
• ELECTRICAL CONNECTION: Please note the voltage levels on the information signs. The mains adapter for the speaker should only be operated with the voltage and frequency values specified on the signs.
• LIGHTNING PROTECTION/PREVENTIVE MEASURES: If the device is not going to be used for a prolonged period (e.g. when on holiday), it should be disconnected from the mains by removing the plug. The device should also be disconnected from the mains in the event of a thunderstorm. Doing this will prevent damage caused by lightning and overvoltage.
• MAINS CABLE: The mains cable must always be suitable for operation and it should only ever be laid out in a manner that prevents it from being trodden on. It should not be pinched by objects either, as this can damage the cable. When using plugs and power strips it must be ensured that the cable is not kinked at the point where it emerges from the socket. Do not connect or remove the mains cable with damp hands.
  • OVERLOAD: Sockets, power strips and extension cables should not be overloaded. If an overload occurs, there is a risk of electric shock and fire.
• SETTING UP: Please read the installation instructions.
  • The speaker should only be positioned on a solid surface and not on moving base frames, otherwise there is a risk of injury.

damage That must be rectified By a Specialist:

If any of the following damage occurs, disconnect the device from the mains immediately and contact a specialist to conduct the repair work:

• Damage to the mains cable or the mains plug. A damaged cable should not be repaired, but must be replaced.
  • If moisture or water has entered the device or foreign objects have fallen into the device.
  • If the speaker has fallen and the housing is damaged.
  • If the device does not work properly, even though all of the information in the instruction manual has been observed.

Only those subsequent alterations approved by the manufacturer may be conducted.

Only original spare parts should be used for repair.

After conducting any repairs the safety of device should be checked to ensure it is functioning correctly and safely.

Repairs must always be conducted by qualified specialists, as you might otherwise be exposed to dangerous high voltage levels or other hazards.

The triangle with a lightning symbol warns the user that high voltage is used within the device which can result in electric shock.

The triangle with an exclamation mark informs the user that important operating and maintenance instructions (repair) are contained in the accompanying instruction manual, which must be observed.

Do not open! Risk of electric shock!

CAUTION: In order to avoid electric shock do not open the speaker housing/mains adapters or remove the covers. The user is not to conduct any repairs him/herself. Repairs should only be conducted by qualified technicians! Do not use any sockets or extension cables that do not fully accommodate the plug of the device.

unpacking The Speaker

Please unpack the speaker and accessories carefully and check the contents of the box using the list above. In the event of any transport damage, please contact your supplier. Keep the packing material in a safe location. The original packaging enables trouble-free transportation for any subsequent relocation and servicing requirements.

Setting up The Speaker

The sound deck should be positioned directly under the centre of the TV. The housing of the sound deck is designed to withstand the weight of a modern TV without any problems. If the TV is located on a shelf or sideboard, the sound deck can be set up directly underneath. If the TV is mounted on a wall, the sound deck should be positioned directly in front of, and below, the set. A solid, level surface is important to ensure proper functionality of the subwoofer chassis, which is located at the bottom of the sound deck.

SYSTEM INSTALLATION (FIG. 2)

Connecting a TV to audio input ANALOG INPUT:

Use the supplied audio cable (C) and connect the audio output on your TV to audio input ANALOG INPUT (4). If your TV has an audio output with fixed level, this is preferable to the audio output with variable level.

Connecting a TV or an additional digital audio source to the audio input designated DIGITAL INPUT OPTICAL:

Use the supplied optical digital cable (D) and connect the audio output on your TV to the audio input designated DIGITAL INPUT OPTICAL (5). Please ensure that the corresponding output is enabled in your TV's settings and that it is set to „Stereo PCM“. Also refer to the operating instructions supplied with your TV for further information.

Alternatively, an additional audio source (e.g. DVD player, CD player, etc.) can be connected to the audio input designated DIGITAL INPUT OPTICAL (5).

Connecting an additional digital audio source to the audio input designated DIGITAL INPUT COAXIAL:

An additional audio source (e.g. DVD player, CD player, etc.) can be connected to the audio input designated DIGITAL INPUT COAXIAL (6). The necessary connecting cable is not supplied.

Connecting the device to a Bluetooth audio source:

Use the remote control to switch the sound deck to the Bluetooth mode. If you have previously connected a Bluetooth device, the sound deck will automatically attempt to re-establish a connection with this device. If this is the case, you may be required to manually reconfirm the connection on the source device.

If a connection has not already been made or the connection cannot be re-established, the sound deck will automatically activate the 'pairing mode' for a period of 180 seconds. To switch the sound deck to the pairing mode manually, briefly press the BT PAIR button (Fig. 3, (8)) on the remote control. The blue LED status indicator will flash quickly whenever the pairing mode is active.

Now activate the Bluetooth mode on your source device. The sound deck will appear in the list of Bluetooth devices as „Sounddeck 400 BTX“. If it is not displayed in the list, set your source device to search for Bluetooth devices manually and make sure that the sound deck has been switched to the pairing mode.

Depending on the source device, you may be asked whether the password is to be accepted during the pairing procedure. You can confirm this by simply pressing „Accept“. If you are still asked for a password, use the default passwords „0000“ or „1234“. If you are asked if you want to establish a connection after pairing, please select „Yes“. When the device has been paired and connected successfully the blue LED status indicator will illuminate continuously.

The sound deck supports the „aptx®“ high quality audio transmission standard. If your source device also supports this standard, „aptx®“ will be selected automatically as the transfer mode when establishing a Bluetooth connection.

Connecting the power supply to the sound deck:

Included in delivery is the most commonly used mains cable (E). The mains cable used in your country, however, may be different. If the mains cable is not compatible with your power sockets or if you are in any doubt, please contact your Magnat dealer.

1. Insert the 2-pin mains cable into the socket (3) on the amplifier of the sound deck (Fig. 2).
2. Insert the mains cable into the socket. Make sure that you are using the mains plug that is compatible with the socket (refer to the information above).
