IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AND EXPLANATION OF SYMBOLS

WARNING!

CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE THE AMPLIFIER COVER. NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE. REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED PERSONNEL.

The lightning flash with the arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsu- lated “dangerous” voltage within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of shock to humans.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operation and maintenance (servicing) instructions in this manual.

1.Read these instructions.

2.Keep these instructions.

3.Heed all warnings.

4.Follow all instructions.

5.WARNING: To prevent fire or electric shock, do not expose this equipment to rain or moisture. Do not use this apparatus near water.

6.Clean only with a dry cloth.

7.Allow a minimum of 6" (152 mm) clearance behind cabinet for convection cooling. Keep anything that might restrict airflow from the rear of the enclosure (i.e. draperies, fabric, etc.). Do not block any ventilation opening. This product contains an internal power amplifier that produces heat.

8.Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

9.Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding-type plug on the three-pronged “Edison” style power cable. The grounding plug has two blades and a grounding prong. The third prong is provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit your outlet, consult an electrician for the replacement of the obsolete outlet. Do not cut off the grounding plug or use an adapter that breaks the grounding circuit. This apparatus must be properly grounded for your safety.

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

11.The appliance coupler is the AC mains disconnect and should remain readily operable after installation.

12.Use only attachments/accessories specified by QSC Audio Products, LLC.

13.Use only with hardware, brackets, and components sold with the apparatus or by QSC Audio Products, LLC.

14.Unplug the apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.

15.Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally or has been dropped.

16.Before placing, installing, rigging or suspending any loudspeaker product, inspect all hardware, suspension, cabinets, transducers, brackets and associated equipment for damage. Any missing, corroded, deformed, or non-load rated component could significantly reduce the strength of the installation and should be immediately corrected. Use only hardware which is rated for the loading conditions of the installation and any possible short-term unexpected overloading. Never exceed the rating of the hardware or equipment.

17.Consult a licensed, professional engineer when any doubt or questions arise regarding a physical equipment installation.

18.The appliance shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus.
