Important Safety Information pro.Bose.com

Thank you for selecting Bose® ControlSpace ESP processors for your sound reinforcement system. This document is intended to provide professional installers with basic installation and safety guidelines for Bose® ControlSpace ESP processors in typical ﬁxed-installation systems. Please read this document before attempting installation.

WARNINGS:

• This product is intended for installation by professional installers only.

• Do not expose this apparatus to dripping or splashing, and do not place objects ﬁlled with liquids such as vases, on or near the apparatus. As with any

electronic products, use care not to spill liquids into any part of the system. Liquids can cause a failure and/or a ﬁre hazard.

• To reduce the risk of ﬁre or electric shock, do not expose this apparatus to rain or moisture.

• Do not place any naked ﬂame sources, such as lighted candles, on or near the apparatus.

• To prevent electric shock, match the wide blade of the line cord plug to the wide slot of the AC (mains) receptacle. Insert fully.

CAUTIONS:

• This product shall be connected to a mains socket outlet with a protective earthing connection.

• Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those speciﬁed herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

The product should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone except properly qualiﬁed service personnel.

• Make no modiﬁcations to the system or accessories. Unauthorized alternations may compromise safety, regulatory compliance, and system performance.

NOTES:

• The product must be used indoors. It is neither designed nor tested for use outdoors, in recreational vehicles, or on boats.

• Where the mains plug or appliance coupler is used as the disconnect device, such disconnect device shall remain readily operable.

• See the additional instructions on the Important Safety Instructions sheet (North America only) enclosed in the shipping carton.

• Provide an earth connection before the main plug is connected to the mains.

The lightning ﬂash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated dangerous

voltage within the system enclosure that may be of sufﬁcient magnitude to constitute a risk of electrical shock.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle, as marked on the system, is intended to alert the user to the presence of important

operating and maintenance instructions in this installation guide.

Important Safety Instructions

1. Read these instructions.

2. Keep these instructions – for future reference.

3. Heed all warnings – on the product and in the owner’s guide.

4. Follow all instructions.

5. Do not use this apparatus near water or moisture.

6. Clean only with a dry cloth.

7. Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.

To ensure reliable operation of the product and to protect it from overheating, put the product in a position and location that will not interfere with its proper ventilation.

8. Do not install near any heat sources, such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including ampliﬁers) that produce heat.

9. Do 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 wider blade or third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not ﬁt in 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.

However, this is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, you are encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

• Connect the equipment to an outlet on a different circuit than the one to which the receiver is connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

This product complies with the Canadian ICES-003 Class B speciﬁcations.

General precautions

CAUTION: Place the unit where it will be protected from heat and allow adequate ventilation. Place the unit away from direct heat sources,

such as heating vents and radiators. Make sure the air can circulate freely behind, beside and above the unit.

Do not allow the chassis to exceed the maximum operating temperature of 50˚C. Be aware of conditions in an enclosed rack that may increase the temperature above room ambient conditions.

CAUTION: Be sure all the ﬁne strands of the wire are twisted together and contained within the connector. If even one strand is loose and can

touch the adjacent terminal, a short circuit may occur.

The information furnished in this guide does not include all of the details of design, production, or variations of the equipment.
