 Important Safety Instructions – Read First 

 

Read instructions:

 

Retain these safety and operating instructions for future reference. Adhere to all 
warnings printed here and on the console. Follow the operating instructions printed in 
this User Guide. 

Do not open:

 

Operate the console with its front and crossfader panels correctly fitted.  Disconnect 
mains power by unplugging the power cord if a panel needs to be removed for 
servicing.  Refer this work to competent technical personnel only. 

Power sources:

 

 

Connect the console to a mains power only of the type described in this User Guide and 
marked on the rear panel.  The power source must provide a good ground connection.   

Power cord:

 

Use the power cord with sealed mains plug appropriate for your local mains supply as 
provided with the console. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet consult your 
service agent for assistance.  Route the power cord so that it is not likely to be walked 
on, stretched or pinched by items placed upon or against it. 

Grounding:

 

Do not defeat the grounding and polarisation means of the power cord plug. Do not 
remove or tamper with the ground connection in the power cord. 

Ventilation:

 

 

Do not obstruct the ventilation slots or position the console where the air flow required 
for ventilation is impeded. If the console is to be operated in a rack unit or flightcase 
ensure that it is constructed to allow adequate ventilation. 

Moisture:

 

 

To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock do not expose the console to rain or moisture 
or use it in damp or wet conditions.  Do not place containers of liquids on it which might 
spill into any openings.  

Heat:

 

Do not locate the console in a place subject to excessive heat or direct sunlight as this 
could be a fire hazard. Locate the console away from any equipment which produces 
heat such as power supplies, power amplifiers and heaters.  

Environment:

 

Protect from excessive dirt, dust, heat and vibration when operating and storing.  Avoid 
tobacco ash, drinks spillage, and smoke, especially that associated with smoke 
machines. 

Handling:

 

To prevent damage to the controls and cosmetics avoid placing heavy objects on the 
control surface, scratching the surface with sharp objects, or rough handling and 
vibration.  Protect the controls from damage during transit.  Use adequate packing if you 
need to ship the unit. 

Servicing:

 

   

Switch off the equipment and unplug the power cord immediately if it is exposed to 
moisture, spilled liquid, objects fallen into the openings, the power cord or plug become 
damaged, during lightening storms, or if smoke, odour or noise is noticed. Refer 
servicing to qualified technical personnel only. 

Installation:

 

   

Install the console in accordance with the instructions printed in this User Guide.  Do not 
connect the output of power amplifiers directly to the console.  Use audio connectors 
and plugs only for their intended purpose. 

 

  

 Important Mains Plug Wiring Instructions 

The console is supplied with a moulded mains plug fitted to the AC mains power lead. 
Follow the instructions below if the mains plug has to be replaced. 

The wire which is coloured Green/Yellow or Green must be connected to the terminal in 
the plug which is marked with the letter E or with the Earth symbol. 

This appliance must be earthed. 

The wire which is coloured Blue or White must be connected to the terminal in the plug 
which is marked with the letter N. 

The wire which is coloured Brown or Black must be connected to the terminal in the 
plug which is marked with the letter L. 

Ensure that these colour codes are followed carefully in the event of the plug being 
changed.
