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 product´s enclosure that may be
of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk to persons.

DO NOT OPEN

The exclamation mark within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of
important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the

CAUTION! HIGH VOLUME!

You will operate this system for professional use. Therefore the commercial use of this equipment is liable to the
rules and regulations of the Accident Prevention & Insurance Association of your industry sector. Adam Hall as a
manufacturer is bound to inform you formally about the existence of eventual sanitary risks.

These speakers are able to induce high acoustic sound pressure levels. 85 db is by law the maximum audio
pressure level which your ear can be exposed to during a work day. It was set according to the technical exper­tise of the occupational medicine as a basis for the noise rating level. Higher sound levels or longer exposition
times could damage your ear. The time of exposition by higher sound pressure levels should be shortened in
order to prevent from ear damages. Here are a few reliable warning signals which show that you have exposed
yourself for a too long period to excessive sound pressure levels:

- You hear bell- or whistling sounds!

- You have the impression that you can’t hear high tones anymore!
