• Be sure to follow all the precautionary instructions in this section, which contain important warnings and/or cautions regarding safety.

• After reading, keep this manual handy for future reference.

• Install the unit only in a location that can structurally support the weight of the unit and the mounting components. Doing otherwise may result in the unit falling down and causing personal injury and/or property damage.

• Do not expose the unit to rain or an environment where it may be splashed by water or other liquids, as doing so may result in electric shock.

• Do not lay the connection cable where it can be walked on or tripped over, causing personal injury.

2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The EM-600 is an omnidirectional condenser microphone of only 28 mm (1.1") in diameter. It can be flush-mounted into a ceiling, wall, or desk, making it unobtrusive.

3. FEATURES

• Realizes optimum acoustic characteristics suitable for sound pick-up when flush-mounted into a ceiling or wall.

• Provides clear, easy-to-listen-to, high-quality sound.

4. HANDLING PRECAUTIONS

• Be sure to turn off the phantom power switch on the equipment that the unit is connected to before connecting or disconnecting the unit. As doing otherwise may cause loud noise or damage to the unit or connected equipment.

• Avoid installing the unit in humid or dusty locations, in locations exposed to the direct sunlight, near the heaters, or in locations generating sooty smoke or steam as doing otherwise may result in unit failure.

• Take care not to drop the unit onto the floor nor bump it against a hard object as the unit could fail.

• Avoid using a mobile telephone near the microphone in use. Noise could be picked up.

• To clean, be sure to first disconnect the connection cable, then wipe with a dry cloth. When the unit gets very dirty, use a cloth damped in a neutral cleanser. Never use benzene, thinner, alcohol, or chemically-treated cleaning cloth because such volatile liquids could deform or discolor the unit.
