WARNING
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of serious injury or
even death from electrical shock, short-circuiting, damages, fire, or other hazards. These
precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
• Before installing the card in an audio device, please confirm that the device is
compatible with the card and check possible restrictions regarding the maximum
number of third-party expansion cards that can be simultaneously installed. Refer to the
owner’s manual supplied with the audio device, and/or the Behringer ® Pro Audio web
site.
• Do not install the card in any Behringer®/Midas® products not specified by
manufacturer for use with the card, to avoid possible electrical shock, fire, or equipment
damage.
• Do not attempt to disassemble or modify the card. Do not apply excessive force to card
connectors or other card components.
• Mishandling of the card may lead to shock, fire hazard, or equipment failure.
• Be sure to disconnect the power cable of the host device before installing the card and
connecting/disconnecting the cables (in order to eliminate shock hazard, create
undesired noise, and avoid equipment damage).
• Turn off all peripheral devices connected to the host device before installation, and
unplug all related cables.
• Be sure to properly ground the host device to prevent electrical shock and/or
malfunction.
• Do not touch the metallic leads (pins) of the circuit board when handling the card.
• Wear a pair of heavy gloves during installation to avoid scratching or cutting your hands
on sharp edges.
• Avoid touching exposed connectors and metal parts to minimize the possibility of bad
connections.
• Drain all static electricity from your clothing and body before handling the card.
Static electricity can damage the card. Touch an exposed metal part of the host device
or other grounded object beforehand.
• Do not drop the card or subject it to physical shock as this can result in breakage and/or
malfunction.
