U-CONTROL   UCA202

1. INTRODUCTION

 1.1 Before you started

1.1.1 Shipment

Your UCA202 was carefully packed at the assembly plant to assure secure transport. Should the
condition of the cardboard box suggest that damage may have taken place, please inspect the unit
immediately and look for physical indications of damage.

Damaged equipment should NEVER be sent directly to us. Please inform the dealer
from whom you acquired the unit immediately as well as the transportation com-
pany from which you took delivery. Otherwise, all claims for replacement/repair may
be rendered invalid.

Please always use the original packaging to avoid damage due to storage or ship-
ping.

Never let unsupervised children play with the equipment or with its packaging.

Please dispose of all packaging materials in an environmentally friendly fashion.

1.1.2 Initial operation

Please make sure the unit is provided with sufficient ventilation, and never place the UCA202 on top of
an amplifier or in the vicinity of a heater to avoid the risk of overheating.
The current supply is made via the USB connecting cable, so that there is no external power supply unit
required. All required safety precautions have been adhered to.
