5. UNPACKING

Each K-array speaker is built to the highest standard and thoroughly inspected before leaving the factory. 
Upon arrival, carefully inspect the shipping carton, then examine and test your new product. If you find 
any damage, immediately notify the shipping company. Only the consignee may file a claim regarding 
the system’s electronic equipment.

 Temperature. 

Operate the device in a place where the temperature is between -20°C and 35°C (-4°F

to 95° F). Avoid dramatic changes in temperature or humidity when using it, as condensation may
form on or within the device.

 Take care not to spill any food or liquid through the device’s grill. Do not attempt to dry the device
with an external heat source, such as a hair dryer.

 Carrying, handling and installing the device.

 The device contains sensitive components. Do not drop,

disassemble, open, crush, bend, deform, puncture, shred, incinerate, paint, or insert foreign objects
into it. If your device has been dropped or damaged unplug the power cable immediately.

 Set  up. 

Set up your device on a stable retaining horizontal surface. If combined or mechanically

connected with other products, always verify the stability of the resulted system. Install the unit
only in a location that can structurally support the weight of the unit, far away from people who
can interfere with the stability of the system. In case of outdoor installation, protect the device from
rain and moisture. Assure that the wind does not interfere with the system’s stability, taking extra
securities like chains, weights, ropes or any other certified anchoring systems.  Doing otherwise may
result in the unit falling down, causing personal injury or property damage or even death. The system
should only be suspended by qualified personnel following safe rigging practices. Secure fixings
to the building structure are vital. To clarify any doubt you may have, seek help from architects,
structural engineers or other specialists.

 This audio system is not intended for use in the operation of nuclear facilities, aircraft navigation
or communication systems, air traffic control systems,or for any other uses where the failure of the
audio system could lead to death, personal injury, or sever environmental damage.
