serious injury due to the furnishing collapsing or over turning onto a child.
Warning - Death or serious injury may occur when children climb on audio
and/or video equipment furniture. A remote control or toys placed on the
furnishing may encourage a child to climb on the furnishing and as a result the
furnishing may tip over on to the child.
Electrical Safety:
• Do not plug the power cord into an extension cord.
• Inspect power cords for damage before each use. Do not use power cords
that are damaged.
• Unplug power cord from electrical outlet by gripping the cord. Do not unplug
the power cord by pulling only on the cord.
• Do not step on, drive over, drag, or place objects on the power cord.
• For added safety, plug the lectern into a grounded outlet controlled by a GFI
(Ground Fault Interrupter) circuit breaker.
• Electrical devices are not toys. Children are often unaware of the hazards
associated with electrical devices. This lectern must always be used by
adults or with adult supervision.
Note: The Freedom XRS Elite Lectern is not designed for
use with cord reels or surface-mount cord reel accessories.
Note: CPU slings cannot be used with Freedom XRS
Elite lecterns because of mounting and ADA-compliance
considerations. If a CPU is necessary, it can and should
be installed into the rack cabinet using a rack-mount shelf.

2. Lectern lift mechanism initial setup, operation, and reset procedure
Preparation:
• Read all instructions before operation.
• Make sure lectern is plugged-in using the 15-foot, 15-amp power cord.
• Locate the “Up” and “Down” control buttons. Control pad is located on the instructor-
side under the worksurface front edge on opposite side from rack cabinet.
• Keep clear of pinch points during worksurface movement.
Normal Operation:
To raise or lower the lectern, press and hold the “up” or “down” arrow keys on the control
pad until the worksurface reaches the desired height. The worksurface can be adjusted
from 32.5”H (minimum) to 40”H (maximum).
Note: The lectern has a load-sensing, anti-collision feature
programmed into the controller that actively locks out the
lift mechanisms when unbalanced loads are encountered;
i.e. an obstruction under the worksurface, or weight from a
person sitting on one side of the lectern.

CAUTION
Keep clear of pinch points during worksurface movement. Note: The lift actuators
provide 540 lb of lift.
Always unplug the lectern before working under the worksurface. Do not place
anything under the worksurface when operating lift. Although this lectern utilizes an
anti-collision feature that briey stops and reverses the worksurface motion in the event
of an obstruction, use caution when raising or lowering. Do not sit at, under, or on the
worksurface when operating the lift mechanism and be sure lectern movement does not
interfere with objects or people. Use caution when raising or lowering the worksurface!
