The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated "dangerous voltage" within the product's enclosure, that may be
of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.
Le symbole éclair avec point de flèche à l'intérieur d'un triangle équilatéral est utilisé pour alerter l'utilisateur de la présence à l'intérieur du coffret de "voltage dangereux" non isolé d'ampleur suffisante pour constituer un risque d'éléctrocution.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user of the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.
Le point d'exclamation à l'intérieur d'un triangle équilatéral est employé pour alerter les utilisateurs de la présence d'instructions importantes pour le fonctionnement et l'entretien (service) dans le livret d'instruction accompagnant l'appareil.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1.Read Instructions — Read all the safety and operation instructions before operating the DX8.
2.Retain Instructions — The safety and operating instructions should be kept for future reference.
3.HEED ALL WARNINGS — Follow all warnings on the DX8 and in these operating instructions.
4.FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS — Follow all operating and other instructions.
5.Water and Moisture — Do not use the DX8 near water – for example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub, in a wet basement, near a swimming pool, etc.
6.Ventilation — This DX8 should be situated so that its location or position does not interfere with its proper ventilation. For example, it should not be situated on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar surface that may block any ventilation openings, or placed in a built- in installation such as a bookcase or cabinet that may impede the flow of air through ventilation openings.
7.Heat — Locate the DX8 away from heat sources such as radiators, or other devices which produce heat.
8.Power Sources — Connect the DX8 to a power supply only of the type described in these operation instructions or as marked on the rear panel. If using an external DC power supply or battery pack, be sure the voltage corresponds to the range indicated on the rear panel, and that it is connected with the correct polarity.
9.Power Cord Protection — Route power supply cords so that they are not likely to be walked upon or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit the DX8.
10.Object and Liquid Entry — Do not drop objects into or spill liquids into the inside of the DX8.
11.Damage Requiring Service — The DX8 should be serviced only by qualified service personnel when:
A.The
B.Objects have fallen, or liquid has spilled into the DX8; or
C.The DX8 has been exposed to rain; or
D.The DX8 does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a marked change in performance; or
E.The DX8 has been dropped, or its chassis damaged.
12.Servicing — The user should not attempt to service the DX8 beyond those means described in this operating manual. All other servicing should be referred to the Mackie Service Department.
13.To prevent electric shock, do not use this polarized plug with an extension cord, receptacle or other outlet unless the blades can be fully inserted to prevent blade exposure.
Pour préevenir les chocs électriques ne pas utiliser cette fiche polariseé avec un prolongateur, un prise de courant ou une autre sortie de courant, sauf si les lames peuvent être insérées à fond sans laisser aucune pariie à découvert.
14.Grounding or Polarization — Precautions should be taken so that the grounding or polarization means of the DX8 is not defeated.
15.This apparatus does not exceed the Class A/Class B (whichever is applicable) limits for radio noise emissions from digital apparatus as set out in the radio interference regulations of the Canadian Department of Communications.
ATTENTION
dépassant las limites applicables aux appareils numériques de class A/de class B (selon le cas) prescrites dans le règlement sur le brouillage radioélectrique édicté par les ministere des communications du Canada.
WARNING — To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this appliance to rain or moisture.
CAUTION — Internal lithium battery.
Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or equivalent type.
