All persons must wear protective headgear and footwear at all
times.

Under no circumstances personnel is allowed to climb into a
loudspeaker assembly.

Never stand in the immediate vicinity of loudspeakers driven
at a high SPL level. Professional loudspeaker systems are
capable of causing a sound pressure level that is harmful to
human hearing. Seemingly non-critical sound levels (from
approx. 95 dB SPL) can cause hearing damage if people are
exposed to it over a long period of time.

Magnetic field
Loudspeakers produce a static magnetic field even if they are not
connected or are not in use. Therefore make sure when managing and
transporting loudspeakers, they are nowhere near equipment and
objects which may be impaired or damaged by their external magnetic
field. Generally speaking, a distance of 0.5 m (1.5 ft) from magnetic
data carriers (floppy disks, audio and video tapes, bank cards, etc.) is
sufficient; a distance of more than 1 m (3 ft) may be necessary with
computer and video monitors.
Product monitoring, care and maintenance
•
If applicable please refer to this manual as well as to
the"rigging manual" as any other manuals pertaining to the
system for a detailed description of the inspection procedure.
•
Regularly check all load bearing bolts and other metal parts in
the mounting devices. Any parts showing any sign of
(suspected) defect must immediately be put aside and
withdrawn from use to be inspected by qualified service
personnel.
•
Regularly check the loudspeaker housings and accessories
for visible signs of wear and tear, and replace them when
necessary.
•
Keep the loudspeakers away from heat producing sources
such as heaters, stoves, fireworks etc.
•
Keep the loudspeakers away from water; prevent the
possibility of water and moisture entering it.
•

•
The loudspeaker housings can be cleaned with a damp cloth.
