5. NOMENCLATURE AND FUNCTIONS
ER-2215S-AS
ER-3215S-AS
2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
ER-2215S-AS and ER-3215S-AS is a 15W megaphone with
removable microphone. Microphone and handle with anti-bacteria
treatment improve hygiene and safety during use.
3. HANDLING PRECAUTION
•
The megaphone is not waterproof. Avoid exposure to rain or
environment where it may be splashed by water or liquids.
•
Avoid storing unit in humid or dusty locations, exposed to
direct sunlight, near heaters or exposed to sooty smoke, as
these conditions may result in unit failure.
*1 Battery life estimates assume 30 minutes of continuous use
per day.
*2 Audible range estimates assume use on a relatively quiet
street using new batteries and will vary depending on
remaining battery capacity, surrounding noise, wind direction,
obstacles and other environmental conditions.
•
Water or other foreign objects get inside the unit.
•
No sound heard (after checking to be sure that batteries are
loaded in correct orientation and satisfactorily charged).
•
When batteries are left installed in the megaphone for
extended periods of time, be sure to check them periodically
for charge and leakage.
•
Do not use the unit for extended periods of time with distorted
sound output. This could cause the inner parts to become hot
and possibly result in unit failure.
•
Noise may be produced when a mobile phone is used near the
unit. However, this is not a failure. Use the mobile phone as far
as possible from the unit.
•
Use a tightly wrung-out damp cloth to clean the unit. If the unit
becomes extremely dirty, use a cloth moistened in a neutral
detergent and tightly wrung-out. Never use volatile liquids such
as benzene or alcohol to clean, as these may deform its case.
