Handle the AC Power Cord Gently
When disconnecting the power cord from an AC outlet, always
pull the plug, never pull the cord. If you do not intend to use
the Ultra-X13 for any considerable length of time, disconnect
the plug from the AC outlet. If the power cord is replaced,
make certain that it is of similar gauge. As with all electrical
devices, do not run power cords under rugs or carpets or place
heavy objects on them. Damaged power cords should be
replaced immediately with cords meeting factory
specifications.
AC Fuse
The fuse is located inside the chassis and is not user-service-
able. If power does not come on, contact Outlaw Audio.
Wiring
Cables that are run inside of walls should have the appropriate
markings to indicate compliance with, and listing by the UL ,
CSA or other standards required by the UL, CSA, NEC or your
local building code. Questions about cables inside of walls
should be referred to a qualified custom installer, or a licensed
electrician or low-voltage contractor.
Installation Location
To assure proper operation and to avoid the potential for
safety hazards, place the unit on a firm and level surface
capable of supporting its weight.
Avoid installation in humid locations, in extremely hot or cold
locations, or in areas that are exposed to direct sunlight or
space heating equipment.
Do Not Open the Cabinet
There are no user serviceable components inside this product.
Opening the cabinet may present a shock hazard, and any
modification to the product will void your guarantee. If water or
any metal object, such as a paper clip, coin or a staple,
accidentally falls inside the unit, disconnect it from the AC
power source immediately, and contact Outlaw Audio for
further instructions.
