apparatus.

11.

 Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.

12.

 Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or 

table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with 

the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution 

when moving the cart/apparatus combination to 

avoid injury from tip-over.

13.

 Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or 

when unused for long periods of time.

14.

 Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required 

when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-

supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have 

fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or 

moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle is 

intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated "dangerous 

voltage" within the product's enclosure, that may be of sufficient magnitude 

to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.

Le symbole éclair avec point de flèche à l'intérieur d'un triangle équilatéral 

est utilisé pour alerter l'utilisateur de la présence à l'intérieur du coffret de 

"voltage dangereux" non isolé d'ampleur suffisante pour constituer un risque 

d'éléctrocution.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the 

user of the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) 

instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.

Le point d'exclamation à l'intérieur d'un triangle équilatéral est employé 

pour alerter les utilisateurs de la présence d'instructions importantes pour le 

fonctionnement et l'entretien (service) dans le livret d'instruction 

accompagnant l'appareil.

20.

 NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply  

with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15  

of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable 

protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.  

This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency  

energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the  

instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. 

However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur  

in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful 

interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined 

by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to 

correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

•  Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

•  Increase the separation between the equipment and the 

receiver.

•  Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from 

that to which the receiver is connected.

•  Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for 

help.

  CAUTION: Changes or modifications to this device not expressly 

approved by LOUD Technologies Inc. could void the user's authority to 

operate the equipment under FCC rules.

21.

 This apparatus does not exceed the Class A/Class B (whichever is 

applicable) limits for radio noise emissions from digital apparatus as 

set out in the radio interference regulations of the Canadian Department 

of Communications.

ATTENTION

 — 

Le présent appareil numérique n’émet pas de bruits 

radioélectriques dépassant las limites applicables aux appareils 

numériques de class A/de class B (selon le cas) prescrites dans le 

réglement sur le brouillage radioélectrique édicté par les ministere des 

communications du Canada.

22.

 Exposure to extremely high noise levels may cause permanent hearing 

loss. Individuals vary considerably in susceptibility to noise-induced 

hearing loss, but nearly everyone will lose some hearing if exposed to 

sufficiently intense noise for a period of time. The U.S. Government’s 

Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has specified 

the permissible noise level exposures shown in the following chart.

  According to OSHA, any exposure in excess of these permissible limits 

could result in some hearing loss. To ensure against potentially   

dangerous exposure to high sound pressure levels, it is recommended 

that all persons exposed to equipment capable of producing high 

sound pressure levels use hearing protectors while the equipment 

is in operation. Ear plugs or protectors in the ear canals or over the 

ears must be worn when operating the equipment in order to prevent 

permanent hearing loss if exposure is in excess of the limits set forth 

here:
