IMPORTANTI NORME DI SICUREZZA

1Conservare le presenti norme per l’utilizzo futuro.

2Seguire sempre tutte le istruzioni e gli avvertimenti segnati sull’unità e nelle istruz- ioni operative.

3Utilizzare sempre la corretta tensione di alimentazione. Fare riferimento al manuale del costruttore per le caratteristiche di alimentazione. Tensioni di rete diverse necessitano anche di un diverso cavo con spine differenti.

4Non installare l’unità in un rack poco ventilato, o direttamente sopra apparecchia- ture che producono calore, come amplificatori di potenza. Controllare la massima temperatura ambientale di esercizio sulle specifiche tecniche del prodotto.

5Fori ed aperture nei pannelli sono necessari per garantire un corretta ventilazione e prevenire surriscaldamenti. Queste aperture non devono essere coperte o ostruite. Non inserire oggetti di alcun tipo nei fori di ventilazione. Evitare il contatto con liq- uidi di qualsiasi genere.

6Evitare di collegare le uscite di un amplificatore di potenza direttamente a qualsiasi connettore dell’unità.

7Per evitare il rischio di scosse elettriche non esporre il prodotto a pioggia o umid- ità. Evitare l’uso dove possa essere esposto all’acqua.

8Non tentare di utilizzare il prodotto se è caduto, se è stato a contatto con liquidi, o mostra chiari segni di danneggiamento o cambio di prestazioni che indicano la necessità di assistenza tecnica.

9Ogni intervento sull’unità va eseguito esclusivamente da personale qualificato. La rimozione della copertura comporta l’esposizione al pericolo di folgorazione.

Il presente triangolo impresso sul componente avverte la presenza di ten- sioni pericolose non isolate all interno della copertura – tali tensioni rappre- sentano un pericolo di folgorazione.

Il presente triangolo impresso sul componente avverte l utente della pre- senza nella documentazione allegata di importanti istruzioni relative al funzi- onamento ed alla manutenzione.

INSTRUÇÕES IMPORTANTES DE SEGURANÇA

1Guarde essas instruções para uso posterior.

2Siga todas as instruções e fique atento aos avisos marcados na unidade e nas instruções de operação.

3Sempre use com a voltagem correta. Veja no manual de instruções do fabricante qual a alimentação necessária. Lembre-se que voltagens de operação diferentes podem precisar de um cabo ou plug diferentes.

4Não instale a unidade em um suporte sem ventilação ou diretamente acima de equipamentos que produzam calor, como transformadores. Observe a temperatura ambiente máxima de operação indicada na especificação do produto.

5O revestimento da unidade é provido de fendas e aberturas para ventilação – para assegurar uma operação confiável e evitar que a unidade se superaqueça. Não blo- queie, cubra ou insira objetos nas aberturas. Nunca derrube líquido de qualquer espécie na unidade.

6Nunca ligue saídas de amplificadores de áudio diretamente a qualquer dos conec- tores da unidade.

7Para evitar danos de choque ou fogo, não exponha a unidade à chuva ou umidade, ou opere-a onde haja exposição à água.

8Não tente operar a unidade se ela for derrubada, danificada, exposta à líquidos ou apresente uma mudança de performance notável, indicando a necessidade de manutenção.

9Esta unidade só deveria ser aberta através de pessoal de serviço qualificado. Removendo coberturas o exporão a voltagens perigosas.

Esse triângulo que aparece no seu console, alerta para a presença de volta- gem perigosa e não isolada no recinto – voltagem que pode ser suficiente para constituir um risco de choque.

Esse triângulo ques aparece no seu console alerta para instruções impor- tantes de operação e manutenção neste manual.
