Behringer BX300 +

ULTRABASS BX300

Your BX300 was carefully packed in the factory and the packaging is designed to protect the unit from rough

handling. Nevertheless, we recommend that you carefully examine the packaging and its contents for any

signs of physical damage, which may have occurred during transit.

+If the unit is damaged, please do not return it to BEHRINGER, but notify your dealer and the

shipping company immediately, otherwise claims for damage or replacement may not be

granted. Shipping claims must be made by the consignee.

Be sure that there is enough space around the unit for cooling and please do not place the ULTRABASS on

high-temperature devices such as radiators etc. to avoid overheating.

+Before you connect your ULTRABASS to the mains, please make sure that your local voltage

matches the voltage required by the unit:

The fuse holder on the female mains connector has 3 triangular markings, with two of these triangles opposing

each other. The ULTRABASS is set to the operating voltage printed next to these markers and can be set to

another voltage by turning the fuse holder by 180°. CAUTION: This instruction does not apply to export

models exclusively designed, e.g. for 115-V operation!

Please use the enclosed power cord to connect the unit to the mains. The cord complies with all applicable

safety standards.

+Please note that all units must be grounded properly. For your own safety, you should never

remove any ground connectors from electrical devices or power cords or render them

inoperative.
