IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Read these instructions.
• Keep this instructions.
• Heed all warnings.
• Follow all instructions and keep all warnings.
• Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
• Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with
the apparatus.
• When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.
• Avoiding hearing damage. Professional loudspeakers are capable of producing extremely high sound
levels and should be used carefully. Never stand close to loudspeakers driven at high volume. Set the volume to a safe level. You can adapt over time to a higher volume of sound that may sound normal but can be damaging to your hearing. Hearing loss get worse every time you’re exposed to a sound level of 90 dB or over for an extended period of time. If you experience ringing in your ears or muffled speech, stop listening and have your hearing checked. The louder the volume, the less time is required before your hearing could be affected.
• Choking Hazards. This device contains small parts, which may present a choking hazard to small children. Keep the device and its accessories away from small children.
• Do not make repairs yourself. Never attempt to disassemble, repair or modify the system yourself.
Disassembling the unit may cause damage that is not covered under the warranty. The device contains no user-serviceable parts. Repairs should only be performed by factory trained service personnel.
• Sound distortion. Do not operate speakers for an extended period of time with sound distortion. This is an indication of malfunction, which in turn can generate heat and result in a fire.
• Carrying, handling and installing the device. The device contains sensitive components. Do not drop,
disassemble, open, crush, bend, deform, puncture, shred, incinerate, paint, or insert foreign objects into it. If your device has been dropped or damaged unplug the power cable immediately.
• Setup. Set up your device on a stable retaining horizontal surface. If combined or mechanically connected with other products, always verify the stability of the resulted system. Install the unit only in a location that can structurally support the weight of the unit, far away from people who can interfere with the stability of the system. Assure that the wind does not interfere with the system’s stability, taking extra securities like chains, weights, ropes or any other certified anchoring systems. Doing otherwise may result in the unit falling down, causing personal injury or property damage or even death. The system should only be suspended by qualified personnel following safe rigging practices. Secure fixings to the building structure are vital. To clarify any doubt you may have, seek help from architects, structural engineers or other specialists.
