SAFETY AND HANDLING INFORMATION

It is important that loudspeaker systems are used in a safe manner.

 

Avoiding Hearing Damage.

 Professional loudspeakers are capable of producing extremely high sound levels and should be used carefully. 

Never stand close to loudspeakers driven at high volume. Set the volume to a safe level. Over time you can adapt to a higher volume that may 
sound normal but can be damaging to your hearing. Hearing loss get worse every time you’re exposed to a sound level of 90 dB or over for an 
extended period of time. If you experience ringing in your ears or muffled speech, stop listening and have your hearing checked. The louder the 
volume, the less time is required before your hearing could be affected. 

Choking Hazards.

 This device contains small parts, which may present a choking hazard to small children. Keep the device and its accessories 

away from small children.

Keeping the Outside Clean.

 Handle the device with care to maintain its appearance. To clean it, unplug all cables and turn it off. Then use a 

soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Don’t use window cleaners, household cleaners, aerosol sprays, solvents, alcohol, ammonia, or abrasives to 
clean the device. 

Carrying, Handling and Installing the device.

 The device contains sensitive components. Do not drop, disassemble, open, crush, bend, deform, 

puncture, shred, microwave, incinerate, paint, or insert foreign objects into it.

Do not operate speakers for an extended period of time with sound distortion. This is an indication of malfunction, which in turn can generate 
heat and result in a fire. 
To reduce the risk of overheating , avoid installing it near heat emitting appliances, such as a room heater or stove.
No naked flame sources such as lighted candles should be placed near the device.
Operate the device in a place where the temperature is between -20°C and 50°C (-4°F to 122° F). Avoid dramatic changes in temperature or 
humidity when using it, as condensation may form on or within the device.
Set your device up on a stable retaining surface. 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, assure that the wind does not interfere with the 
system’s stability, taking extra securities like any certified anchoring systems.  Doing otherwise may result in the unit falling down, causing 
personal injury or property damage. 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 nuclear facilities, aircraft navigation or communication systems, air traffic control systems,or for any 
other use where any malfunction or failure of the audio system could lead to death, personal injury, or sever environmental damage.

Do not make repairs yourself.

 Caution, risk of electric shock. Do not open the device, it contains potentially hazardous voltage. Never attempt 

to disassemble, repair or modify the system yourself.  

Disassembling the unit may cause damage that is not covered under the warranty. 

The device contains no user-serviceable parts. Repairs should only be performed by manufacturing trained service personnel. Do not connect 
the unit to an amplifier if you suspect that your device needs service or repair.
