CAUTION

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if mishandled, could result in moderate or minor personal injury, and/or property damage.

• Leave the installation to your TOA dealer because the installation requires expert knowledge. Improper installation may cause the unit to fall, resulting in personal injury and/or property damage.

• Should the following irregularity be found during use, immediately stop operating the unit and contact your nearest TOA dealer. Further attempt to use under this condition may cause fire or electric shock.

· If no tone sounds

• Do not kick nor stand on the unit as this may cause it to break, resulting in personal injury.

• Avoid installing the unit in locations where it may be directly splashed by sprinklers or by hosing, as doing so may result in fire or electric shock.

• Do not operate the unit for an extended period of time with the sound distorting. This is an indication of a malfunction, which in turn can cause heat to generate and result in a fire.

3. INPUT SETTINGS

Note: The speaker operates on a 100 V line (high impedance

line). Never connect the speaker to a low impedance line as it may be damaged.

3.1. When Using the Speaker at the Factory-preset Input

The speaker's input is factory-preset to 15W (670 Ω).

Note: To change the factory-preset input, be sure to read the

next paragraph.

Attach the supplied TOA label (2 sheets) to the side of top cover in the way it hides the fixing screw head.

Tip

The TOA labels hide the fixing screw heads on the top cover for tamper prevention purpose.

3.2. When Changing the Input

The speaker's input is factory-preset to 15 W (670 Ω).

Step 1. Remove the top cover.

Unscrew 2 fixing screws securing the top cover, and lift the top cover in the arrow direction shown at right.

Step 2. Disconnect the black lead from the input terminal, and

reconnect it to the terminal of desired input. Turn the terminal screw counterclockwise to pull out a lead, and clockwise to tighten it. For the connection to the input terminal, refer to the input terminal label inside the case.
