             permanently have double and/or reinforced insulation and do not
             have any connection options for a protective earth. The housing of
             an electrical appliance in protection class II that is enclosed in insu-
             lated material can partially or fully act as the additional or reinforced
             insulation.

              The Australian Regulatory Compliance Mark (RCM) is a single compli-
              ance mark used by suppliers after establishing compliance with all
              applicable regulations, including EMC, telecoms, radiocoms, electro-
              magnetic radiation (EMR) and electrical safety.

able CD or MP3 players, computers/notebooks, smartphones and
stereo systems can also be connected.
The device is only intended for private use and not for industrial/
commercial use.
Please note that no liability will be accepted if the device is used for
an improper purpose:
− Do not modify the device without our express agreement and
   do not use any accessories that have not been supplied or ap-
   proved by us.
− Only use replacement parts or accessories that we have sup-
   plied or approved.
− Observe all the information in these user manuals, especially
   the safety information. Any other use is deemed improper and
   may cause personal injury or damage to property.
− Do not use the device in areas where there is a risk of explo-
   sion. This includes e.g. fuel pumps, fuel storage areas or areas
   in which corrosive agents are processed. This device should
   also not be used in areas where the air is contaminated with
   particles (e.g. flour or sawdust).
− Do not expose the device to extreme conditions; it is only in-
   tended for use in internal rooms.
   Avoid:
• high humidity or wet conditions
• extremely high or low temperatures
• direct sunlight
• open flame

                                                                       11
Safety information

Safety information

             WARNING!

Risk of injury due to improper handling.
− This device is not intended to be used by people (including
   children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capacity or
   with a lack of experience and/or knowledge unless they use
   the device under the supervision of a person responsible for
   their safety or if they have been given instructions about how
   to use the device safely.
− Do not allow children to play with electrical devices without
   adult supervision. Children may not always be able to properly
   identify possible hazards.

Safely setting up the device

             WARNING!

Risk of injury due to electric shock!
There is a risk of electric shock due to live wires.
− Select a suitable location to set up the device and make sure
   not to damage covered electrical wires or installation cables
   when drilling.
− Do not place any containers filled with liquid, such as vases, on
   or near the device and power cord. The container may tip over
   and the liquid may adversely affect electrical safety.
− Protect the device and all connected devices from moisture,
   drips or splashes of water. Avoid dust, heat and direct sunlight
   in order to prevent malfunctions.
− Do not place any sources of open flame, such as burning can-
   dles, on or near the devices.
− Do not cover the device with objects (newspapers, blankets,
   etc.) to prevent overheating.
12
Safety information

− Do not place any objects on the cords because they may be
  damaged.
− Place and operate all components on a stable, level and vibra-
  tion-free surface to prevent the device falling over.
− All multimedia devices that are connected to the device must
  meet the requirements of the EU Low Voltage Directive.

Power supply

            DANGER!

Risk of injury due to electric shock!
− The power point must be near the device and be easily accessi-
   ble. Lay the cord in such a way that no-one can step on it or trip
   over it.
− To disconnect your device from the power supply, switch off the
   power point and unplug the device. Always hold on to the plug
   itself when unplugging the device. To prevent damage, never
   pull on the cord itself.
− Only operate the device from an earthed power point with a
   voltage of 220–240 V ~ 50/60 Hz. If you are not sure about the
   electricity supply at the location where you are setting up the
   device, check with your local electricity supply company.
− Do not use the plug of the device if the housing or the cord to
   the device are damaged.
− Do not under any circumstances open the housing of the de-
   vice. Any contact with live parts or modifications to the electri-
   cal and mechanical structure are dangerous and may lead to
   device malfunctions.

                                                                      13
Safety information

           NOTICE!
In the event of a storm or if you do not intend to use the device for
some time, disconnect it from the mains power supply.

− When the device is not in use, switch off the power point and
  pull out the plug or use a master/slave power board to avoid
  using electricity when the device is turned off.

Handling batteries
The remote control is operated with a battery. Please observe the
following advice concerning the battery:
− Keep new and used batteries away from children. Do not swal-
   low batteries; there is the risk of chemical burns.

             WARNING!

Risk of chemical burns!
The remote control contains two batteries. If these batteries are
swallowed, they can cause severe internal chemical burns within 2
hours that may lead to death.
− If you suspect that batteries may have been swallowed or en-
   tered any part of the body, immediately seek medical attention.
− Do not use the remote control if the battery compartment no
   longer closes securely and keep it away from children.
− Only insert new batteries of the same type. Never use old and
   new batteries together.
− Note the polarity (+/-) when inserting the batteries.
− There is a risk of explosion if batteries are not changed prop-
   erly. Only ever replace batteries with batteries of the same or
   equivalent type.
− Never attempt to recharge the batteries. There is a risk of
   explosion!

14
Package contents

Horizontal (A) or mounted on the wall (B).

                             A                          B

16
Mounting the Soundbar

Option (A) horizontal Soundbar

  − Position the Soundbar and the subwoofer on a stable
    and level surface near power points. Ensure that the
    devices cannot fall down.

Option (B) Soundbar mounted on the wall

  − First connect the Soundbar to the power cord.
  − Position the subwoofer close to the Soundbar and
    connect the subwoofer to the power cord as well.

           NOTICE!

Before mounting the Soundbar on the wall, check whether the wall has the necessary
weight-bearing capacity. Medion AG does not assume any liability for damages that
occur due to incorrect or improper mounting.

             WARNING!

Risk of injury due to electric shock!
There is a risk of electric shock due to live wires.
− Select a suitable location to set up the device and make sure
   not to damage covered electrical wires or installation cables
   when drilling.

                                                                                17
Mounting the Soundbar

     − Drill 4 holes into the wall in a parallel   720 mm
       line (5.5–6 mm diameter depending on
       the wall type). The distance between
       the holes must be 720 mm.

     − Insert wall plugs into each of the holes.
       Screw the wall mounting bracket firmly
       onto the wall as shown. Ensure that the
       opening of the Soundbar bracket, as
       shown adjacent, is facing upwards.
