Setup

NOTICE

If the device is subjected to warm temperatures after being cold (e.g. after transport), condensation may occur inside of it.

  • In this case, wait approx. 2 hours before you connect and activate it.

CAUTION

The device is disconnected from the mains by pulling the mains plug out of the socket.

  • Therefore make sure that the socket is always easily accessible.

Location tips

  • Make sure that the environment is clean and free from dust.
  • Select a location away from heat sources and direct sunlight.
  • Do not place any heavy objects on the cables or the device.
  • The wireless connection has a maximum range of 15 m, but can be obstructed by objects, walls and other transmitters (e.g. Wi-Fi, DECT).

Rear speakers

As rear speakers, the wireless speakers are set up or hung to the side of or behind the listener at a height of 1.20 m to 2.10 m (see the grey areas in the graphic). The ideal position is offset by approx. 20 degrees from the parallel position to the listener on the left and right side (A). The distance between the rear speakers and the listening  position should not be less than 1 m.However, if you (need to) sit closer, please ensure that the front side of the speaker is not directly facing you. Rather, the speaker must be angledtowards the wall (B). Alternatively, you can create a greater distance by placing the speakers higher than 1.20 m or further away (C).

Operation

Setting the channel

  • With the POSITION switch (6), you determine the stereo channel (right or left) to be played back by the respective wireless speaker.
  • The speakers can only connect if one speaker is set to the right channel and the other to the left channel.

Mains connection

  • Connect the power cord with the power cord jack socket (7) and insert the plug of the power cord (5) in a mains socket (220–240 V ~/50 Hz).
  • The first time you turn the wireless speaker on, it will switch to pairing mode and the power indicator (3) will quickly blink in white.

First-time connection

  1. Hold the PAIRING button (8) down until the power indicator (3) blinks quickly in white.Teufel-Effect-2-Wireless-Speaker-fig \(10\)
  2. Switch the transmitter unit (e.g. soundbar) to pairing mode. Please refer to the user manual for the transmitter unit for more information. This can be an option in the Speaker submenu ( Speaker) or a Pairing button on the transmitting device
  3. As soon as the Effect 2 has found a compatible transmitter, it will connect with it. The power indicator (3) illuminates continuously in white and dims downTeufel-Effect-2-Wireless-Speaker-fig \(11\)

Automatic connection

  • If the wireless speakers were already connected to a compatible transmitter, they will immediately  be connected to it.The power indicator (3) illuminates in white and slowly dims down.
  • If there is no transmitter nearby or if it is switched off, the Effect 2 will search for the transmitter. The power indicator (3) will fade in and out in white.
  • The connection will be established as soon as you switch on the transmitter. The power indicator (3) illuminates in white and slowly dims down.

Automatic activation/ deactivation

As soon as the wireless speakers receive a signal from a connected transmitter, they will switch back on from standby mode. If the signal is deactivated, the wireless speakers will switch back to standby mode after a short time. In standby mode, the power indicator (3) will be off.

Troubleshooting

The following advice should help you to solve problems. If this does not work, our online support area will provide help:

Problem Possible cause/solution
The Effekt’s power indicator (3) does not illuminate. Make sure that power is

supplied. Check to make sure that the mains plug is securely seated.
The LED turns off when the transmitter is switched off. To check whether the device is working, pull the plug out of the socket, wait 1 minute and then plug it back in. The power indicator starts fading in and out.
No sound| The volume has been set too low. Increase the volume on the transmitter.
No 5.1 audio: If e.g. a pure stereo signal is played, the rear speakers will remain mute. Then select a surround sound simulation such as Dolby Prologic on the transmitter unit.

A “test tone” is suitable for testing the connection providing your transmitter unit offers this function for adjusting the level.

The rear satel- lites do not emit sound.| MP3s, radio as well as many TV programmes only transmit stereo sound. Switch your receiver to a Pro-Logic mode or a DSP mode (5.1 Stereo). Select UPMIX method or get a

5.1 signal.

No connection| Transmitter is off – switch the transmitter on.

Distance is >15m or objects are blocking the connection signal. Correct the allocation of the devices.

The connection is not automatically established.| Reconnect the devices
The transmission is disrupted.| Other wireless signal sources (cordless telephones, Wi-Fi stations or microwaves) affect the connection. Move the devices causing the disturbance.
