Product Care and Maintenance:
• Avoid operating and storing the enclosure in damp or
dusty places: this will avoid malfunctions and premature
degrading of specifications.
• Avoid using the enclosure close to strong sources of
electromagnetic interferences (e.g. video monitors, high
power electrical cabling). This may lead to degradation of
audio quality.
• Care should be taken so that objects do not fall and liquid
are not spilled into the enclosure. In public event don't let
people, musicians, technicians or anyone put glasses, cups,
ashtrays or cigarettes on the enclosure.
• Always leave the protective grille mounted on the
enclosure.
• Use a soft brush or a jet of air to clean the enclosure.
Do not use alcohol, solvents or detergents.
• Take care of your connecting cables. Make sure that they
are not damaged, knotted or twisted.
• Do not force the connectors and the controls.
• Always make sure that the mixer, the 218SA and any
other powered enclosure are switched
off
before
connecting them.
This will avoid annoying noises and signal peaks, which can
also be dangerous for the enclosures themselves.
Important !
Power supply connection:
• make sure the mains power switch is off ('0') before
starting any connection.
• check that mains voltage corresponds to the voltage
indicated on the panel.
• always connect the power cord to a grounded outlet.
Connection to the mixer:
If the mixer has XLR balanced outputs:
- use standard balanced XLR connectors.
If the mixer has XLR unbalanced outputs:
- in this case, unless you are using a Montarbo mixer, make
sure that the XLR outputs on the mixer are unbalanced to
IEC 268 standard: 1 = GND, 2 = HOT, 3 = GND.
