IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The symbols shown above are internationally accepted symbols
that warn of potential hazards with electrical products. The
lightning flash with arrowpoint in an equilateral triangle means
that there are dangerous voltages present within the unit. The
exclamation point in an equilateral triangle indicates that it is
necessary for the user to refer to the owner’s manual.
These symbols warn that there are no user serviceable parts inside
the unit. Do not open the unit. Do not attempt to service the
unit yourself. Refer all servicing to qualified personnel. Opening
the chassis for any reason will void the manufacturer’s warranty.
Do not get the unit wet. If liquid is spilled on the unit, shut it off
immediately and take it to a dealer for service. Disconnect the
unit during storms to prevent damage.

Important user information
Do not remove covers. No user serviceable parts inside, refer servicing to qualied service
personnel. For continued compliance with international EMC regulations, it is important that all
cables be screened, and connected as follows: Audio cable screens to their BLU-100 connector
ground. Control cable screens to the ground screws adjacent to the connector. Network cables
should be of type Cat 5, tted with a clip-on ferrite sleeve (STEWART TYPE 28A2029-0A0) near
the network socket end. This equipment must be earthed. It should not be necessary to remove
any protective earth or signal cable shield connections to prevent ground loops. Any such
disconnections are outside the recommended practice of BSS Audio, and will render the EMC or
safety certicate void.
Mechanical installation
If the unit is likely to undergo extreme vibration through extensive road trucking and touring, the
unit must be supported at the rear and/or sides to lessen the stress on the front mounting ange.
Rear rack supports are provided to reduce stress on front mounting ange. Damage caused by
insufcient support is not covered by the warranty. To prevent cosmetic damage to the front panel
nish, use protective plastic cups under the rack mounting bolts.
