Thank you for purchasing KEF Reference Series
loudspeakers. These have been designed to
faithfully reproduce high quality sound over many
years of use and should provide realistic
reproduction of music and speech. Please take a
little time to read these instructions prior to use.
Your KEF Reference Loudspeakers are tall,
slim and extremely heavy. Installed correctly on
a smooth, level surface, your loudspeakers
should be entirely safe to listen to and to
live with.
However, if you have small children, large pets,
the infirm, uneven flooring or unusually thick
carpeting in your home, then correct adjustment
of the foot assemblies is imperative, if safe,
stable operation is to be achieved.
Warning: The metal tweeter dome now has
protective mesh at the centre of the Uni-Q
®
driver array; if however this is compromised and
the dome itself is dented, it will permanently
impair performance.
1. Avoid temperature extremes.
2. Avoid damp.
3. Avoid direct sunlight.
4. Clean with the KEF cloth provided.
5. Do not use spirit based cleaners.
If you are at all uncertain about setting up, operating or caring for your system
your dealer will be pleased to assist you.
1. Read this manual carefully, especially the
safety information, before attempting to
assemble and operate the system.
2. Follow the unpacking and assembly
instructions on the cartons. Please note that
lifting the heavier Model 207/2 and Model
204/2c requires two able-bodied persons.
3. Never connect the system directly to the
electricity supply.
4. Trailing cables are dangerous. Ensure all
cables are secure and tidy.
5. When stripping cables use only tools
designed specifically for the purpose ie:
correct wire cutters or cable strippers.
Do not attempt to strip cables with a knife as
this could result in serious injury.
