Location
• Before moving the device, remove all connected cables.
• When setting up the device, make sure that the AC outlet you are using is easily
accessible. If some trouble or malfunction occurs, immediately turn off the power
switch and disconnect the plug from the outlet. Even when the power switch is
turned off, electricity is still flowing to the product at the minimum level. When
you are not using the product for a long time, make sure to unplug the power
cord from the wall AC outlet.
• If this device is to be mounted in an EIA-standard rack, leave the back of the
rack open and make sure that it is at least 10 cm away from walls or surfaces.
Also, if this device is to be mounted with devices that tend to generate heat, such
as power amplifiers, be sure to keep an adequate gap between this device and the
heat-generating devices or install ventilation panels to prevent high temperatures
from developing inside this device.
• Inadequate ventilation can result in overheating, possibly causing damage to the
device(s), or even fire.
• Do not use the device in a confined, poorly-ventilated location. If this device is
to be used in a small space other than an EIA-standard rack, make sure that there
is adequate space between the device and surrounding walls or other devices: at
least 10 cm at the sides, 15 cm behind and 40 cm above. Inadequate ventilation
can result in overheating, possibly causing damage to the device(s), or even fire.
• Do not expose the device to excessive dust or vibrations, or extreme cold or
heat (such as in direct sunlight, near a heater, or in a car during the day) to
prevent the possibility of panel disfiguration or damage to the internal
components.
• Do not place the device in an unstable position where it might accidentally fall
over.
• Do not block the vents. This device has ventilation holes at the sides to prevent
the internal temperature from becoming too high. In particular, do not place the
device on its side or upside down. Inadequate ventilation can result in
overheating, possibly causing damage to the device(s), or even fire.
• Do not use the device in the vicinity of a TV, radio, stereo equipment, mobile
phone, or other electric devices. Doing so may result in noise, both in the device
itself and in the TV or radio next to it.
Connections
• Before connecting the device to other devices, turn off the power for all
devices. Before turning the power on or off for all devices, set all volume levels to
minimum.
• Use only speaker cables for connecting speakers to the speaker jacks. Use of
other types of cables may result in fire.
• XLR-type connectors are wired as follows (IEC60268 standard): pin 1: ground,
pin 2: hot (+) and pin 3: cold (-).
• Use only SP4 plugs for connecting SP connectors.
Maintenance
• Inspect the ventilation holes and clean them periodically. Dust and dirt can
seriously degrade the effectiveness of the cooling and result in malfunction or fire.
• Remove the power plug from the AC outlet when cleaning the device.
• The performance of components with moving contacts, such as switches,
volume controls, and connectors, deteriorates over time. Consult qualified
NEXO-SA service personnel about replacing defective components.
Handling caution
• When turning on the AC power in your audio system, always turn on the
device FIRST, to avoid speaker damage. When turning the power off, the device
should be turned off LAST for the same reason.
• Do not insert your fingers or hands in any gaps or openings on the device
(vents…)
• Avoid inserting or dropping foreign objects (paper, plastic, metal, etc.) into any
gaps or openings on the device (vents, etc.) If this happens, turn off the power
immediately and unplug the power cord from the AC outlet. Then have the
device inspected by qualified NEXO-SA service personnel.
• Do not use the device for a long period of time at a high or uncomfortable
volume level, since this can cause permanent hearing loss. If you experience any
hearing loss or ringing in the ears, consult a physician.
• Do not rest your weight on the device or place heavy objects on it, and avoid
use excessive force on the buttons, switches or connectors.
• Do not use this device for any purpose other than driving loudspeakers.
