IMPORTANT PRODUCT INFORMATION
1. DO NOT DROP SPEAKER-
The speaker can be damaged both internally and externally if dropped. Damage caused by
dropping the speaker is not covered by the warranty.
2. DO NOT EXPOSE SPEAKER TO HIGH DISTORTION LEVELS-
Exposing the speaker to high levels of distortion may
damage the speaker. This type of damage is not covered by the warranty. If the speaker stops playing, it is likely that
the built-in protection circuit has activated. In the event this happens, turn the amplifier off for approximately 60
seconds to allow the circuit to reset. Turn down the volume on the stereo system and amplifier. Operate the system at
lower volume levels to avoid overloading the speaker.
3. USE A GROUND FAULT INTERRUPTER (GFI)-
A GFI outlet or extension cable on the stereo system will help prevent
electrical shock in the event of a malfunction. The audio amplifier that powers this speaker MUST be plugged into
a GFI outlet. GFI outlets are available at most hardware or home improvement stores. GFI outlets are easy to install,
provide a safer operating environment for your pool users, and help protect your electronic equipment.
4. PLACE SPEAKER AWAY FROM HIGH TRAFFIC AREAS-
If using this speaker as a drop-in speaker, ensure the speaker
is located away from diving or high-activity areas. Severe personal injury may result if a swimmer/diver makes contact
with the speaker when diving/jumping into the water.
5. CABLE PLACEMENT-
Use caution when running the cable from the speaker to the amplifier. Do not lay the cable
in high-traffic areas where tripping or entanglement may occur. When used as a drop-in speaker, remove as much
slack as possible from the speaker wire that runs through the water to avoid entanglement. Avoid laying the cable in
areas where pets may possibly become tangled in, or damage, the cable. If pulling the cable through conduit, do not
attempt to pull splices through the conduit. Utilize junction boxes if splices are required.
6. DO NOT HANG SPEAKER BY SPEAKER CABLE-
If using the speaker as a drop-in speaker, do not raise and lower the
speaker into the water using the speaker wire. Instead, tie a rope (not included) to the eyelet on the speaker’s rubber
ring and use the rope to raise and lower the speaker. Never carry or lift the speaker by the cable.
7. IN WALL INSTALLATION - AVOID CABLE DAMAGE
- Use caution when pulling the speaker cable through the
conduit to avoid pinching the cable, removing wanted excess cable from the niche, or damaging the strain relief on
the speaker. Failure to follow these instructions can result in damage to the speaker which are not covered by the
warranty.
8. DO NOT DRAG SPEAKER ON POOL DECK, BOTTOM OR SIDE OF POOL-
Dragging the speaker along any surface can
cause internal and external damage. This type of damage is not covered by the warranty.
9. DO NOT REMOVE STRAIN RELIEF-
Removing or altering the strain relief fitting connecting the cable to the speaker
will permanently damage the speaker. This fitting is carefully installed at the factory and is designed to provide a
watertight seal. Any alteration or adjustment of this fitting will void the warranty.
10. WINTER STORAGE-
Do not allow the speaker(s) to become encased in ice. Always install speaker below the freeze
line. If speaker is installed above freeze line, take the speaker out of the niche and allow it to rest on the bottom of
the pool before freezing occurs. If there is not enough speaker cable to do this, place a crate on the bottom of the
pool and allow the speaker to rest on the crate; do not let the speaker hang by the speaker cable, in water or out.
11. VOLUME CONTROLS-
Do not use with external volume controls rated at less than 150 watts.
