1. WARNINGS AND INSTALLATION
CAUTION: before switching on or off, make certain the sound system's amplifiers are off: this will avoid signal peaks,
which are annoying and sometimes dangerous (particularly for speaker enclosures).
Connecting and preventing or identifying interference
First of all, check that the apparatus is installed in a place free from industrial or RF (radio frequency) interference.
Avoid installing your equipment very near radio or TV sets, mobile phones, etc., as these can cause noisy interference.
When connecting the other parts of your sound system, watch out for the so-called "round loops", which could cause
hum and jeopardize the products's excellent Sound-to-Noise and low distortion characteristics. The best way (even
if not always feasible) to avoid ground loops is to connect the electric ground of all the equipment to a single central
point ("star" system). In this case, the central point can be the mixer.
Don't force knobs or switches: these are designed and manufactured to respond to light pressure and could be
damaged if used with excessive force.
Take care of your connector cables, a very frequent cause of small/big problems. Always grip them by the connector,
avoid pulling them forcefully and wind them without forming knots or sharp bends: they'll last longer this way, and be
more reliable, which is a definite advantage.
Avoid exposing the product to strong direct sunlight, high temperatures or intense vibrations, in very dusty or particularly
damp surroundings or, even worse, in the rain: this will help to avoid the risk of faulty operation, deterioration or even
electric shocks and fires.
The product is built in shock-resistant material. Nevertheless, protect it during transport with a flight-case to avoid the
risk of any casual accidents.
When you've finished using the apparatus, it's always advisable to protect it from dust, but any dust that does form
should be removed using a cloth or a soft brush. Never use alcohol, acetone or any solvents. The unit does not
require any other maintenance.
In the event of breakdown
All user-adjustable parts are external and easily accessed.
In the event of a breakdown, do not open the apparatus, but contact the nearest TOPP PRO Service Centre.
Connection to the mains supply
The unit is supplied with an external power supply. Before switching on the unit, make certain that the mains voltage
matches that shown on the power supply (a tolerance of up to
± 10% is acceptable).
