manufacturer’s instructions.
8. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers,
stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
9. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type
plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A
grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The
wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for
replacement of the obsolete outlet.
10. Protect the power supply cord from being walked on or pinched, particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where it exits
from the apparatus.
11. Only use attachments, accessories and spare parts specified by the
manufacturer.
12. 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.
13. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for
long periods of time.
14. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any
way, such as power supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been
spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, when the apparatus
has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or
has been dropped.
15. To completely disconnect this apparatus from the AC mains, disconnect the power supply cord plug from the AC receptacle.
16. WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this
apparatus to rain or moisture.

Important safety instructions
Hazard warnings on the rear of the receiver
The label shown on the left is attached to the rear of the EM 9046.
The symbols on this label have the following meaning:
Presence of uninsulated dangerous voltage within the EM 9046’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric
shock.
Never open the EM 9046 as there is a risk of electric shock. There are no
user serviceable parts inside. Never attempt to change the modules of the
EM 9046 yourself. Always refer repairs, servicing and the change of the
modules to your authorized Sennheiser service partner.
Read and follow the safety and operating instructions contained in the
instruction manual.
Risk of fire due to overloading
Do not overload wall outlets and extension cables as this may result in fire
and electric shock.
Danger of hearing damage due to high volumes
This is a professional receiver. Commercial use is subject to the rules and
regulations of the trade association responsible. Sennheiser, as the manufacturer, is therefore obliged to expressly point out possible health risks
arising from use.
www
This receiver is capable of producing sound pressure levels exceeding
85 dB(A). 85 dB(A) is the sound pressure corresponding to the maximum
permissible volume which is by law (in some countries) allowed to affect
your hearing for the duration of a working day. It is used as a basis according to the specifications of industrial medicine. Higher volumes or longer
durations can damage your hearing. At higher volumes, the duration must
be shortened in order to prevent hearing damage. The following are sure
signs that you have been subjected to excessive noise for too long a time:
• You can hear ringing or whistling sounds in your ears.
• You have the impression (even for a short time only) that you can no
longer hear high notes.
Intended use
Intended use of the Digital 9000 system components includes:
• having read and understood this instruction manual, especially the
chapter “Important safety instructions”,
• using the products within the operating conditions and limitations
described in this instruction manual.
“Improper use” means using the products other than as described in these
instructions, or under operating conditions which differ from those
described herein.
This instruction manual is also available at www.sennheiser.com.

Important safety instructions
Safety instructions for A/AB/AD 9000 antennas/antenna
boosters
Use safety wires to protect the receiving antennas against tipping/dropping. The safety wires, rope terminations and coupling links must comply
in their dimensioning and condition with the regulations and standards of
the country in which they are used!
Safety instructions for lithium-ion rechargeable batteries
If abused or misused, the rechargeable batteries of the SK 9000/SKM 9000
may leak. In extreme cases, they may even present a risk of
•explosion,
• fire development,
• heat generation,
• smoke or gas development.
Sennheiser does not accept any liability for damage arising from abuse or
misuse.
Keep away from children. Only charge
rechargeable batteries
with a charger
recommended by
Sennheiser.
Observe correct polarity. Pack/store charged
rechargeable batteries
so that the terminals
cannot contact each
other – danger of
shorting out/fire hazard.
Do not expose to moisture. Switch rechargeable
battery-powered
products off after use.
Only charge rechargeable
batteries at ambient
temperatures between
10 °C/50 °F and 40 °C/
104 °F.
Do not mutilate or dismantle. Do not heat above
Immediately remove
rechargeable batteries from
an obviously defective
product.
When not using
rechargeable batteries
for extended periods of
time, charge them
regularly (about every
three months).
60 °C/140 °F, e.g. do not
expose to sunlight or
throw into a fire.
Do not continue to use
defective rechargeable
batteries.
8 | Digital 9000
Important safety instructions
Only use rechargeable
batteries specified by
Sennheiser.
Store the product in a cool
and dry place at room
temperature (approx. 20 °C/
68 °F).
Dispose of rechargeable
batteries at special
collection points or
return them to your
specialist dealer.
Remove the
rechargeable batteries if
the product will not be
used for extended
periods of time.
