In both cases, echo effect can be set by the ECHO regulator. Priority of voice
announcement; microphone priority MIC PRIORITY button: in case of MP3 playback, the
microphone will be given priority over MP3 music played from the USB-SD signal source.
• The range in open terrain is ca. 25 meters.
• The LED on the grip lights, when batteries are discharged and need to be replaced.
• The antenna of the microphone is integrated into the stage cabinet. The position of the
speaker may affect reception quality and range. The actual range depends on the ambient
conditions. (e.g. walls, human bodies, other electrical equipment, movement ...) Do not
move the microphone in your hand as it may affect the sound quality.
• The actual frequency can be found on the display placed on the microphones grip.

immediately from the device. If fluid spilled from it, then pick up protective gloves and clean
the battery compartment with dry clothes. Do not open, fire or short circuit batteries. Non-

whistling sound, buzz.
• Hold the microphone close to your mouth. Different microphones can produce different
sound quality.
