Safety Instructions They’re Important, So Please Read Carefully! Please DO… Keep these instructions in a safe place for future reference – you may need them The SOLIS works best on a clean, dry and flat surface. Try it, you’ll see. The SOLIS needs room to breathe, so made sure it’s new home has adequate ventilation. Don’t put it on beds, sofas, rugs, enclosed bookcases / cabinets or anywhere else where its ventilation maybe obstructed and it can overheat. Made sure that your SOLIS is connected to the correct power supply as indicated on the unit. Unplug your SOLIS when it’s not in use for a long period (days not hours) Always make sure power cables are placed safely and not obstructing a walkway. If you move your SOLIS from a cool to a warm place, condensation may form on the surface of the vacuum tube. It’s nothing to worry about, but allow 1 hour before you switch it on again. This will avoid leakage or a blow out of the vacuum tube due to too much sudden heat. You really should get your SOLIS serviced by an authorized service engineer if: 1. The power supply or cord is damaged 2. It drops or is struck by a falling object 3. It’s exposed to rain or moisture 4. Liquid is split on it 5. It’s not operating normally or shows a sudden change in performance Please DON’T… Don’t put your SOLIS anywhere near water – it hates it. So avoid placing it near bathtubs, sinks, washing machines, swimming pools, saunas, Jacuzzis, kettles, precariously balanced pints of beers etc. Exposed it direct sunlight or to extremes of temperatures or humidity. Don’t leave it near direct heat sources such as radiators, stoves, gas fires, naked flames or candles. Never drop the unit. It’s delicate, so don’t apply excessive force to the controls or place heavy objects on top of it either. Don’t let too much dust gather on your SOLIS – give it a regular wipe with a soft dry cloth. If necessary, use a slightly damp cloth but DO NOT use solvents. The SOLIS has valves, and they can get hot. Don’t touch the tubes and keep away

from babies and children. Don’t try to remove the cover or the back – there are no user-serviceable parts, and you don’t want to risk an electric shock. NOTE: Any unauthorized changes or modifications to this equipment render the manufacturer’s warranty null and void. Amplifier Connections Before connecting anything to or from your SOLIS, switch off the power to the SOLIS and to components you want to connect. Make sure that all connections between the SOLIS and other components are made correctly, so L(left) goes to L, R(right) goes to R, + to + and – to -> Don’t forget to refer to owner’s manual of each component that you want to connect. Always turn OFF the power switches when you’re connecting or disconnecting from the mains. Disconnect the power supply from the mains if you’re not planning to use your SOLIS for a while eg holidays. Any speakers you connect should have an impedance of 4 ~ 8 ohms, if it’s not written on the back of the speaker, check with the distributor. Speaker Connections Connect to your speakers using high quality, bare (stripped) speaker wire. If your speaker wires are not connected properly you may hear no sound at all, or if the wires are mixed up, it will sound weird with a disturbing loss of bass. When using bare speaker wires, fit at least 1.6mm of insulation inside the speaker terminals so that there’s no bare wire showing. Made sure the wire holders are firmly screwed in to stop the wires from becoming loose. If wires touch, the speakers or the unit could be damaged. That’s bad.

The Front Power Switch Press to ON for power – the indicator will light up while the power is on. Later on, try pressing it off to give it a rest. Source For switching between Bluetooth, Line 1 and Line 2 source from different sound inputs like smartphone device, tablet device, CD player etc. Volume Control Full control – you can turn it up or you can turn it down NOTE: Before you switch on, set the volume control to the lowest setting to avoid damage to the speakers. Just in case you don’t, the speaker protection circuit will mute the volume for a few seconds after the power is switched on. SOURCE KNOB VOLUME KNOB

The Back 5 minute rule! Your SOLIS should only be re-started 5 minutes after switching off to avoid damaging the tubes. POWER SWITCH LINE INPUTS SPEAKER AC POWER OUTPUTS INPUT
