3Insignia Soundbar with Wireless Subwooferwww.insigniaproducts.com6Clean only with dry cloth.7Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.8Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.9Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.10 Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.11 Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.12 Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.13 Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.14 Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.15 To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this device to rain, moisture, dripping, or splashing, and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on it.16 An apparatus with a three-prong, grounding-type plug is a Class I apparatus, which needs to be grounded to prevent possible electric shock. Make sure that you connect any Class I device to a grounding-type, three-prong outlet.17 DO NOT overload wall outlets or extension cords beyond their rated capacity as this can cause electric shock or fire.18 The wall plug is the disconnecting device. The plug must remain readily operable.19 No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, should be placed on the apparatus.20 The ventilation should not be impeded by covering the ventilation openings with items, such as newspapers, tablecloths, curtains, etc.21 The remote control supplied with this product contains a coin/button cell battery. If the coin/button cell battery is swallowed, it can cause severe internal burns in just 2 hours and can lead to death.NS-SB515_15-0527_MAN_V1_ENG.fm Page 3 Monday, June 29, 2015 2:32 PM

Do not put it in locations subject to direct sunlight or in humid places, such as near an air conditioner, humidifier, bathroom, or kitchen.• Do not put water or other liquids close to the soundbar. If liquid is spilled on top of the soundbar, it may be damaged.• The soundbar should be placed on a sturdy, flat surface that is free from vibration, or mounted on a wall. Do not put the soundbar on an uneven or unstable surface, where it may fall and cause damage.Using close to a TV or computerSome older TVs and computer monitors are magnetically sensitive devices. They are likely to suffer discoloration or picture distortion when conventional speakers are placed nearby. If discoloration problems persist, try moving the soundbar away from your TV or monitor. WarningDanger of explosion if the remote control battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or equivalent type. NS-SB515_15-0527_MAN_V1_ENG.fm Page 4 Monday, June 29, 2015 2:32 PM
