Always follow thebasic precautionslisted below to avoid the possibility of physical injury to you or others, or damage to the device orother property. These
precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
Power supply/Power cord Connections
•Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the devices is not
to be used for extend periods of time, or during electrical storms.
•Before connecting the device to other devices, turn off the power for
all devices. Before turning the power on or off for all devices, set all
volume levels to minimum.
When removing the electric plug from the device or an outlet,
always hold the plug itself and not the cord. Pulling by the cord
can damage it.
For the SPEAKERS jacks, Use only the included speakers and speakers
cables. Use of other types of speakers and cables may result in damage
to the device(s), or even fire.
Location Handling Precautions
When transporting or moving the device, always use two or more
people.Attempting to lift the device byyourselfmay damage your
back, result in other injury, or cause damage to the device itself.
Before moving the device, remove all connected cables.
When setting up the device, make sure that the AC outlet you are
using is easily accessible. If some trouble or malfunction occurs,
immediately turn off the power switch and disconnect the plug
from the outlet.
Do not use the device in a confined, poorly ventilated location.
Make sure that there is adequate space between the mixer and
surrounding walls or other devices: at least 1’ ft. at the side, 1’ft.
behind and 1’ft. above. If the mixer is to be used installed into
the speaker cabinet, make sure to allow adequate space between
the speaker and the surrounding walls or other devices: at least 1’
ft. at the sides, 1’ ft. behind and 1’ ft. above. Inadequate
ventilation can result in overheating, possibly causing damage to
the device(s), or even fire.
Do not use the speaker’s handles for suspended installation.
Doing so could result in damage or personal injury.
Avoid setting all equalizer controls and faders to their maximum.
Depending on the condition of the connected devices, doing so
may cause feedback and may damage the speakers.
Do not expose the device to excessive dust or vibrations, or
extreme cold or heat (such as in direct sunlight, near a heater, or
in a car during the day) to prevent the possibility of panel
disfiguration or damage to the internal components.
Do not place the device in an unstable position where it might
accidentally fall over.
Do notblock the vents. This mixer has ventilation holes at the top
to prevent the internal temperature from becoming too high. In
particular, do not place the device on its side or upside down.
Inadequate ventilation can result in overheating, possibly causing
damage to the device(s), or even fire.
Do not use the device in the vicinity of a TV, radio, stereo
equipment, mobile phone, or other electric devices. Doing so may
result in noise, both in the device itselfand in the TVor radio next
to it.
When turning on the AC power in your audio system, always turn on
the device LAST, to avoid speaker damage. When turning the power off,
the device should be turned off FIRST for the same reason.
Do not insert your fingers orhands in any gaps oropenings onthedevice
(vents, ports, etc.).
Avoid inserting or dropping foreign objects (paper, plastic, metal, etc.)
into any gaps or openings on the device (vents, ports, etc.). If this
happens, turn off the power immediately and unplug the power cord
from theAC outlet. Then have the device inspected by qualified service
personnel.
Do not use the device for a long period of time at a high or
uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause permanent hearing
loss. If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, consult a
physician immediately.
Do not operate the device if the sound is distorting. Prolonged use in
this condition could cause overheating and result in fire.
Do not rest your weight on the device or place heavy objects on it, and
avoid use excessive force on the buttons, switches or connectors.
Protective Circuit (poly switch)
All full-range loudspeakers are fitted with a self-resetting poly switch
that protects the high-
frequency driver from damage caused by
excessive power. If a loudspeaker cabinet loses high-frequency output,
immediately remove power from the unit and wait for two to three
minutes. This should be long enough to allow the poly switch to reset.
Reapply power and check the performance of the high frequency driver
before continuing, with the power reduced to a level that doesnot cause
the poly switch to interrupt the signal.
Interference From Cell Phone
Using a cell phone near the speaker system can induce noise. If this
occurs, move the cell phone further away from the speaker system. Air
blowing out of the bass reflex ports is normal, and often occurs when
the speaker is handing program material with heavy bass content.
Always turn the power off when the device is not in use. The
performance of components with moving contacts, such as switches,
volume controls, and connectors, deteriorates o
qualified service personnel about replacing defective parts.
The manufacturer will not be responsible for damagecaused by
improper use or modification to the device.
