IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (continued)

1.The unit and power supply should only be connected to a power outlet that matches the voltage and frequency as marked on the rear of the unit and power supply.

2.Protect the power cable from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.

3.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 provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult a qualified electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

4.If the mains plug supplying this product incorporates a fuse then it should only be replaced with a fuse of identical or lower rupture value.

5.Never use a damaged or frayed power cable; this can cause serious risk of exposure to lethal voltages.

6.The power cable of the unit should be unplugged from the wall outlet when it is not going used for a long period of time.

7.Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.

8.To completely disconnect the power input, the mains plug of the speaker should be disconnected from the mains connection.

9.The mains plug of the apparatus should not be obstructed so it can be easily accessed during intended use.

DO NOT ATTEMPT SERVICING OF THIS UNIT YOURSELF. REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.

In the event that servicing is needed, make sure that any replacement parts used have the same characteristics as the original parts and that routine safety checks have been performed to guarantee that the equipment is in safe operating condition.

REPLACEMENT WITH INCORRECT PARTS MAY RESULT IN FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK OR OTHER HAZARDS.

This unit should be serviced by qualified service personnel when:

The power cord or the plug has been damaged

Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled into the unit

The unit has been exposed to rain or liquids of any kind

The unit does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a marked change in performance

The device has been dropped or the enclosure damaged.

Keep speakers out of extended or intense direct sunlight. The driver suspension could prematurely dry out and finished surfaces may become degraded by long-term exposure to intense ultra-violet (UV) light.

The speaker contains sensitive components. Do not drop, disassemble, open, crush, bend, deform, puncture, microwave, incinerate, paint, or insert foreign objects into speaker.

The speakers are easily capable of generating sound pressure levels (SPL) sufficient to cause permanent hearing damage to performers, production crew and audience members. Caution should be taken to avoid prolonged exposure to SPL in excess of 90 dB(A).

Operate and store the speaker in a place where the temperature is between -20° to 55°C. Low or high temperature conditions might cause the speaker to temporarily stop working. Avoid dramatic changes in temperature or humidity when using the speakers as condensation may form within the speaker.

Turn the speaker off when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. Obey all signs and instructions as sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in serious injury or even death. Areas with potentially explosive atmosphere are often but not always marked clearly. Potential areas may include fueling areas, areas where the air contains chemicals or partials (including grain dust or metal particles) below deck on boats, fuel or chemical transfer storage facilities, and any area you’d normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.

The speaker contains small parts, which may present a choking hazard to small children. Keep the speaker and its accessories away from small children.
