Important Safety Instructions

1.

  Read these instructions.  

2.

  Keep these instructions.

3.

  Heed all warnings.

4.

  Follow all instructions.

5.

  Do not use this apparatus near water.

6.

  Clean only with a dry cloth.

7.

  Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.

8.

  Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus 

(including amplifiers) that produce heat.

9.

  Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two 

blades with one wider than the other. A grounding-type plug has two blades and a third grounding 

prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit 

into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

10.

 Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience 

receptacles, and the point where they exit from the 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.

15.

 This apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing, and no object filled with liquids,  

such as vases or beer glasses, shall be placed on the apparatus.

16.

  Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

17.

  This apparatus has been designed with Class-I construction and must be connected to a mains 

socket outlet with a protective earthing connection (the third grounding prong).

18.

  This apparatus has been equipped with a rocker-style AC mains power switch. This switch  

is located on the side panel and should remain readily accessible to the user.

19.

  The appliance coupler is used as the disconnect device,so the disconnect device shall remain 

readily operable.

20.

 

NOTE:

 The DL32S 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 Audio, LLC 

could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment under FCC rules.

WARNING

CAUTION

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an equilateral  

triangle is intended to alert the user to the prescence of uninsulated  

“dangerous voltage” within the product’s enclosure, that may be of  

significant magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert 

the user of the prescence of important operating and maintaining 

(servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.

CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT  

REMOVE COVER (OR BACK). NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE.  

REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED PERSONNEL.

21.

 

NOTE:

 The DL16S has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, 

pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection 

against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. 

This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed 

and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio 

communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful 

interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own 

expense. 

 WARNING:

 Operation of a DL16S in a residential environment could cause radio interference.

22.

  This device complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled 

environment. This device should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm 

between the radiator & your body.

23.

  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.

24.

  This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s).  

Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

(1) this device may not cause interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired 

operation of the device.

Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d’Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio 

exempts de licence. L’exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes :

(1) l’appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et
(2) l’utilisateur de l’appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même  

si le brouillage est susceptible d’en compromettre le fonctionnement.

25.

  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:
