Safety precautIoNS
The Fender Passport sound system is supplied with
a detachable power cable with an IEC female
connector and a male AC connector. Depending on
the territory in which the Passport system is
purchased, the power cable will be supplied with one of a
number of male AC connectors to accommodate the different
safety and code requirements of specific countries. All AC
cables supplied with Passport products are three pin grounded
types.
Under no circumstances should the ground (earth) pin be
disconnected or removed.
Your Passport System features a Switch-Mode-Power-Supply
designed to operate on any AC voltage and line frequency to
convert AC power with maximum efficiency.
When traveling abroad with the Passport system, as a
standard precaution, always check the local voltage and set
the voltage selector switch located adjacent to the power
input socket on the rear of the mixer / amplifier to the
appropriate operating range. This check must be performed
before connecting the power cable. The Fender Passport has
two range settings: 115V or 230V,
Failure to select the appropriate voltage range will cause the
unit to go into protect mode, void any warranty and may cause
damage to the unit.
For example, the United States of America is standardized
at 120 volts / 0 Hz, Japan operates on 100 volts / 50/0
Hz. For both of these countries the range selector must be
set to 115V. Countries in the EEC have standardized at 230
volts / 50 Hz, however, there are different types of AC plugs
used. For all these countries the selector should be at the
230V position. When using plug adapters or operating in a
territory other than the one in which the unit was purchased,
take great care to comply with local safety requirements and
electrical codes of practice.
If you are not sure of the local voltage, wiring codes
& colors, AC grounding, or correct procedures for
connection, consult a qualified technician .
Warning
Under no circumstances should the ground pin on
the Passport or on any of your electrical equipment
be lifted. It is possible that under certain
circumstances a combination of different types of
ungrounded equipment can create a life threatening shock
hazard. Microphones have metal cases and are connected
through the mic cable to the mixer’s chassis. Your Passport
mixer may be correctly grounded if the building’s wiring is to
code and the ground pin on the AC plug is properly connected.
However, if for any reason external AC powered equipment
with ungrounded AC connections are used in conjunction with
the Passport system (e.g. an ungrounded music amplifier), there
may be a difference in potential to the microphone case. With
this combination a performer holding a (grounded) micro-
phone coming into contact with an ungrounded item of
powered equipment may be subject to dangerous electrical
shocks.
By following the correct procedures and safety precautions,
risks of severe shock hazard can be minimized. Always check
the AC connection and particularly the voltage between the
microphone and any other AC equipment. Avoid operating
the system in conjunction with ungrounded or improperly
grounded electrical equipment.

To open and close your Passport system, simply follow these
guidelines:
1. Place your finger tip under the
safety latch and gently lift.
When the safety latch has
disengaged, lift the main latch
to remove the speaker.
2. To replace, position the
speaker on the tower foot and
bring the speaker in to close
the engagement with the
tower and latch. Position the
latch hook over the speaker
notch and close the latch. The
safety latch will automatically
engage.
Note: These parts are precision engineered and no force is
needed to secure them. Careful alignment of parts will ensure
easy operation.
