IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Your MaxTower is made of a very durable polymer composite material. However, extra care should be taken to protect the ﬁnish and speakers. These simple tips will help reduce wear and tear on your

MaxTower.

1. Read all instructions before using.

2. Avoid direct contact with the speaker. Care should be taken to avoid damage to speakers.

3. Do not use or store around excessive moisture.

4. At very high volume this product may be capable of producing sound levels that could cause hearing damage. Do not operate at uncomfortable levels for prolonged periods. If hearing loss or ringing in ears in experienced, consult a physician.

5. The MaxTower should be positioned so that proper ventilation is maintained.

6. Keep away from heat sources such as radiators, heat vents, and other devices (including ampliﬁers)

that produce heat.

7. The MaxTower should be connected to a power supply described in the operating instructions or as marked. Replace fuse with correct type, size, and rating.

8. The power supply cord should: (1) be undamaged, (2) never share an outlet or extension cord with other devices so that the outlet has exceeded the maximum rating, and (3) never be left plugged into the outlet when not being used for a long period of time.

9. This product should be serviced by qualiﬁed service personnel if:

• The power supply cord or the plug has been damaged.

• One of the speakers has been damaged.

• There has been excessive exposure to rain.

• The MaxTower does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a change in performance.

• The unit has been dropped, or the enclosure damaged.

• Do not attempt to service the product beyond what is described in these instructions. All other repairs should be referred to qualiﬁed service personnel.

• Clean only with damp cloth.

• Use only with the supplied Nady stand.

• Units designed with Class-I construction (like the MaxTower) must be connected to an outlet with a

grounded connection.

STATEMENT OF RoHS COMPLIANCE

The included electronic parts and components are covered by the European Union Removal of Hazardous Substances directive 2002/95/EC (RoHS). This directive seeks to eliminate the toxic substances released during manufacturing processes to ensure that disposed of materials do not pose health risks. Considered toxic substances are lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls (PBB) and polybrominated diphenylethers (PBDE). Lead is used together with tin in solder connections to reduce the melting point of solder. Lead-free solder requires higher soldering temperatures which in turn places greater thermal stress on components.

The MaxTower complies with RoHS directives and uses components that are certiﬁed RoHS compliant.
