ZOOM GFX-707
USAGE AND SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
In this manual, symbols are used to highlight warnings
and cautions for you to read so that accidents can be
prevented. The meanings of these symbols are as
follows:
Please observe the following safety tips and precautions to ensure
hazard-free use of the GFX-707.
• Power requirements
Since power consumption of this unit is fairly high, we
recommend the use of an AC adapter whenever possible.
When powering the unit from a battery, use only an alkaline
type.
[AC adapter operation]
• Be sure to use only an AC adapter which supplies 9 V
DC, 300 mA and is equipped with a "center minus" plug
(Zoom AD-0006). The use of an adapter other than the
specified type may damage the unit and pose a safety
hazard.
• Connect the AC adapter only to an AC outlet that supplies
the rated voltage required by the adapter.
• When disconnecting the AC adapter from the AC outlet,
always grasp the adapter itself and do not pull at the
cable.
• When not using the unit for an extended period,
disconnect the AC adapter from the AC outlet.
[Battery operation]
• Use four conventional IEC R6 (size AA) batteries
(alkaline).
• The GFX-707 cannot be used for recharging.
Pay close attention to the labelling of the battery to make
sure you choose the correct type.
• When not using the unit for an extended period, remove
the batteries from the unit.
• If battery leakage has occurred, wipe the battery
compartment and the battery terminals carefully to
remove all remnants of battery fluid.
• While using the unit, the battery compartment cover
should be closed.
• Environment
Avoid using your GFX-707 in environments where it will be
exposed to:
• Extreme temperature
• High humidity or moisture
• Excessive dust or sand
• Excessive vibration or shock
• Handling
Since the GFX-707 is a precision electronic device, avoid
applying excessive force to the switches and buttons. Also
take care not to drop the unit, and do not subject it to shock
or excessive pressure.
• Alterations
Never open the case of the GFX-707 or attempt to modify
the product in any way since this can result in damage to the
unit.
• Connecting cables and input and output
jacks
You should always turn off the power to the GFX-707 and
all other equipment before connecting or disconnecting any
cables. Also make sure to disconnect all cables and the AC
adapter before moving the GFX-707.
Usage Precautions
• Electrical interference
For safety considerations, the GFX-707 has been designed to
provide maximum protection against the emission of
electromagnetic radiation from inside the device, and protection
from external interference. However, equipment that is very
susceptible to interference or that emits powerful electromagnetic
waves should not be placed near the GFX-707, as the possibility of
interference cannot be ruled out entirely.
With any type of digital control device, the GFX-707 included,
electromagnetic interference can cause malfunctioning and can
corrupt or destroy data. Care should be taken to minimize the risk
of damage.
• Cleaning
Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the GFX-707. If necessary, slightly
moisten the cloth. Do not use abrasive cleanser, wax, or solvents
(such as paint thinner or cleaning alcohol), since these may dull
the finish or damage the surface.
Please keep this manual in a convenient place for future
reference.
