SECURITY AND THE ENVIRONMENT

ELECTRICAL SECURITY
Check that the current in the mains connection where the machine is to be installed corresponds to the
power supply of the machine.
To avoid damaging the equipment, electrical shocks, fire or physical injury when you connect or disconnect
the equipment from the power supply, pull the plug firmly out of the mains socket holding the plug, never the
cable.
Always do this with dry hands.
Keep the power supply cable far from sources of heat. Do not put heavy objects on top of it or change it.
Clean dust and dirt off the power supply cable regularly.
Do not open the machine; you could get an electric shock.

CAUTION
While installing the machine, make sure it is switched off and unplugged.
Do not open the machine. Touching the internal parts is dangerous and you could receive an electric shock.
The machine must not be splashed or dripped on. Never place recipients with liquid inside on the machine.
Do not place anything inside the machine.

LOCATION
Place the equipment on a horizontal surface with enough space around it to allow ventilation.
Avoid direct sunlight, heat sources and excessive dust.
Do not place the machine near magnetic fields or static electricity.
Do not use surfaces which vibrate or receive impact.
Do not pile machines on top of one another.

VENTILATION
Never block or cover the ventilation slits on the machine.
Do not expose it to direct sunlight or place it near sources of heat.

PERIODS OF INACTIVITY
When the machine is not going to be used for a long period of time, disconnect it from the mains.
If you are using an adapter, take into account that it will continue using electricity even if the machine is
switched off. If it is not going to be used for a long period of time, disconnect it from the mains.

THE ENVIRONMENT
To save energy, switch the machine off when you are not going to use it for a long time. The machine could
contain substances that are harmful to the environment or human health. To minimize the effect of these
substances the machine must be correctly managed and recycled when you decide to dispose of it.
When you dispose of it remember: it cannot be thrown into a conventional rubbish bin.
If it contains or uses batteries, these must be disposed of separately.
The machine (without batteries) must be disposed of correctly. Put it in a container specially intended for the
collection of electronic and electrical appliances, at the dump or hand it over to the dealer when you purchase
similar equipment, so that the dealer can dispose of it correctly (at no added cost).

SIGNIFICANCE OF THE SYMBOLS ON THE MACHINE*

The symbol formed by the expression “Class 1 laser product” written in a rectangle
i

ndicates that visible or invisible laser radiation could be produced. Avoid direct expose to

the laser.

The symbol formed by a ray of lightening inside a triangle shows that the machine has
c

onnection terminals or a circuit with areas with a current which could cause an electric

shock, even in normal working conditions.

The symbol formed by an exclamation mark in a triangle shows that the instruction manual
must be referred to for information on how the machine works and its use.

The symbol formed by one square inside another square shows that the machine has
double electrical insulation.

The European Community symbol shows that the machine complies with the current
European Union legislation, as well as its transposition to local legislation.

The symbol of a rubbish bin crossed out and over a horizontal line shows that when the
product is disposed of it must be done properly, placing it in a special selective electronic
and electrical equipment container or through a dealer when purchasing a similar product,
at no additional cost. It also shows that the machine was put on the market after 13th
August 2005 (European Community Directive 2002/96/CE of Electrical and Electronic
recycling, and its Spanish equivalent R.D.208/2005).

CONTROLS AND FUNCTIONS

FRONT PANEL

1.- OUTPUT: LED indicators of output signal level. It regulates the individual input volume controls so that
the level does not exceed the green LED indicators. The red LED indicators show saturation or a
distorted signal that could lead to damage to the mixer.

2.- USB/SD/MP3 player information display.

3.- 7/8: one short press of these buttons lets you move to the previous/following track. A long press
rewinds/fast forwards playback.

4.- VOL-/VOL+: USB/SD/MP3 player module volume controls.

5.- SD/USB: allows the audio source to be selected between an SD memory card or a USB storage device,
if both are connected to the equipment.

6

.- EQ: equalization control for the USB/SD/MP3 player audio signal. Press this button repeatedly if you

wish to choose between the different existing equalizations.

7

.- 12: a short press of this button starts and pauses USB/SD/MP3 playback. A long press allows selection

among the different playback modes: repeat all tracks, repeat folders or random playback.

8.-

q

: on/off button for the USB/SD/MP3 player.

9.- REMOTE: infrared signal receiver for the USB/SD/MP3 player remote control.

10.- VOL 1/VOL 2: volume control for inputs INPUT 1-2.
1

1.- LINE/PHANTOM/MIC: sensitivity switches for inputs and 15 V phantom. These switches have 3
positions:

LINE

: in this position, high level audio sources such as preamplified microphones, CD players, etc. can

be connected to inputs 1 and 2.
PHANTOM

: in this position, electret condenser microphones that require 15 V phantom power can be

connected to inputs 1 and 2.
MIC

: in this position, 30-600 Ω low impedance dynamic microphones can be connected to inputs 1 and 2.

Use this switch with the volume at its minimum to avoid noise.

12.- INPUT 1/INPUT 2: microphone/line inputs that use a combined XLR and 6.3 mm jack connector,
accepting 30-600 Ω unbalanced and balanced microphone signals and balanced electret condenser
microphones that require 15 V phantom power, present in pins 2 and 3 on the XLR connector. They
accept high level, balanced or unbalanced line signals from CD players, etc. Select the appropriate
position using the switch, taking care to turn the volume controls down to minimum to avoid noise.

CAUTION

: when you connect or disconnect an unbalanced microphone, the switch must be in the MIC
position. If the switch is in the PHANTOM position the microphones could be damaged. When you use
microphones that do not require phantom power, make sure that you move the switch to the MIC
position, as the voltage present in pins 2 and 3 of the XLR connector can damage the microphones.

13.- BASS: reinforces or attenuates the bass frequencies ±10 dB.

14.- TREBLE: reinforces or attenuates the treble frequencies ±10 dB.

15.- Volume control for the AUX 1 input.
