2. HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
• When using the DM-524B or DM-524S, do not grasp the
head of microphone or microphone element section in
order to avoid acoustic feedback.
• Avoid installing the unit in humid or dusty locations, in
locations exposed to the direct sunlight, near the heaters,
or in locations generating sooty smoke or steam as doing
otherwise may result in unit failure.
• Take care not to drop the unit onto the floor nor bump it
against a hard object as the unit could fail.
• To clean, be sure to first disconnect the connection
cable, then wipe with a dry cloth. When the unit gets very
dirty, use a cloth damped in a neutral cleanser. Never
use benzene, thinner, alcohol, or chemically-treated
cleaning cloth because such volatile liquids could deform
or discolor the unit.
• (When attached to the ST-73A) Do not pick up the
microphone stand by the microphone, as this could lead
to failure.
