When removing the electric plug from the device or an 

mains socket outlet, always pull on the plug itself and 

not the cord. Pulling the cord may damage it.

XLR output connector

Touching the open pins of the XLR output connector may 

result in an uncomfortable feeling.

Location

Do not place the device in an unstable position where it 

might accidentally fall over.

Do not block the vents. This device has ventilation holes 

to prevent the internal temperature from rising too high. 

In particular, do not place the device on its side or upside 

down. Inadequate ventilation can result in overheating, 

possibly causing damage to the device or even fi re.

Do not place the device in a location where it may come 

into contact with corrosive gases or salty air. This may 

result in malfunction.

Before moving the device, remove all connected cables.

When setting up the device, make sure that the mains 

socket outlet you are using is easily accessible. If some 

trouble or malfunction occurs, immediately turn off  the 

power switch and disconnect the plug from the mains 

socket outlet. Even when the power switch is turned off , 

electricity is still flowing to the product at a minimum 

rate. When you are not using the device for a long time, 

make sure to unplug the power cord from the wall mains 

socket outlet.
