Please make any connections before you plug the mixer in. Be sure the Power switch is in the OFF
position before connecting other devices to the mixer. All fader and volume controls should be set to
0 or minimum position, before the device is switched on. If the device has been exposed to drastic
temperature fluctuation (e.g. after transportation), do not switch on the mixer immediately. The arising
condensation of water might damage your device. Leave the device switched off until it has reached
room temperature.
Operating Determinations:
• When installing this mixer, please make sure that the device is not exposed to extreme heat,
moisture or dust!
• There should not be any cables lying around. Doing so endangers you as well as others.
• Do not operate the mixer in extremely hot (more than 30° / 100°F) or extremely cold (less than
5°C/ 40°F) surroundings.
• Keep the unit out of direct sunlight and away from heaters.
• Operate the mixer only after becoming familiar with its functions. Do not permit operation by
persons not qualified for operating the mixer. Most damages are the result of unprofessional
operation!
