1. Safety | Intended use

When operating the speaker system, observe the following safety warnings to avoid
any risks.

When handling heavy loads of more than 20 kg, use suitable aids (dollies, slings, etc.).
Depending on the situation, several persons may be required for lifting.

A stable position and solid anchorage therefore need to be ensured. A falling speaker can
cause serious damage to property and severe injuries to persons.

When installing and securing TW AUDiO speakers, only use the materials specified by
TW AUDiO. This work must be carried out by qualified and competent personnel. Comply
with the applicable safety regulations when doing so.

If the primary lifting component fails, then discontinue use of the load suspension
equipment immediately. After a fall into the secondary safety component, load
suspension equipment must be regarded as ready to be discarded.

Before installing the equipment always do visual inspection first. Replace parts when
necessary. Spare parts can be obtained from TW AUDiO.

When installing speakers, ensure that they are not exposed to the following
environmental conditions:

• Direct sunlight

• Moisture

• Vibrations

• Dust

Speakers produce an electromagnetic field. Persons with pacemakers must not stand in
close proximity to speakers, because electromagnetic fields can cause pacemakers to
malfunction.

Make sure that there are no objects sensitive to magnetic fields within a one-meter radius
of the speakers, because electromagnetic fields could damage these objects.

Do not stand in close proximity to speakers which are operating with high sound pressure
levels. These speaker systems present a health hazard. Sound levels of approx. 90 dB
SPL are sufficient to result in long-term hearing impairments.
