Read these instructions. 

 

Keep these instructions 

 

Heed all warnings. 

 

Follow the instructions. 

 

Do not use this apparatus near water. 

 

Clean only with a dry cloth. 

 

Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in 
accordance 

with 

the 

manufacturer's 

instructions. 

 

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

 

Do  not  defeat  the  safety  purpose  of  the 
grounding type plug. A grounding type plug has 
two blades and a third grounding prong and is 
used for your safety. 

 

Protect the power cable from being walked on 
or  pinched  particularly  at  the  plugs  or  at  the 
point where they exit the device. 

 

Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms 
or when unused for long periods of time. 

 

Object  and  Liquid  entry:  Never  push  any 
foreign objects of any kind into the openings as 
they may touch dangerous voltage points that 
could  result  in  fire  or  electric  shock.  The 
apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or 
splashing and no objects filled with liquids such 
as a beverage shall be placed on top. 

 

When the apparatus exhibits a distinct change 
in  performance  this  indicates  a  need  for 
service. 

 

There are NO USER SERVICABLE PARTS 

 

Refer  servicing  to  all  qualified  service 
personnel.  Servicing  is  required  when  the 
apparatus has been damaged in any way, such 
as the power cable has been damaged or liquid 
has been spilled or objects have fallen into the 
apparatus or the apparatus has been exposed 
to rain or moisture, does not operate normally 
or has been dropped.  

 

Damage  requiring  service:  Unplug  the  apparatus 
from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified 
service personnel under the following conditions. 
a)

 

When  the  power  supply  cord  has  been 
damaged. 

b)

 

If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen 
into the apparatus. 

c)

 

 If the apparatus has been exposed to rain or 
moisture. 

d)

 

If the apparatus does not operate normally by 
following  the  operating  instructions.  Adjust 
only  those  controls  that  are  covered  by  the 
operating  instructions  as  an  improper 
adjustment  of  other  controls  may  result  in 
damage and will often require extensive work 
by  a  qualified  technician  to  restore  the 
apparatus to its normal operation. 

e)

 

If  the  apparatus  has  been  dropped  or 
damaged. 

 

Connecting: When you connect the Amplifier Unit 
to other equipment, turn off the power and unplug 
all  of  the  equipment  from  the  supply  source. 
Failure  to  do  so  may  cause  an  electric  shock  and 
serious personal injury. Read the User's Manual of 
the  other  equipment  carefully  and  follow  the 
instructions when making the connections. 

 

Sound  Volume:  Reduce  the  volume  to  minimum 
before you turn on the amplifier to prevent sudden 
high  levels  of  noise  which  may  cause  hearing  or 
speaker damage. 

 

SpeakON 

connectors: 

WARNING: 

speakON 

connectors  marked  with  the  lightning  flashes 
indicate  high  voltages  that  are  potentially  life 
threatening.  Wiring  to  these  terminals  requires 
installation by an instructed person and the use of 
ready-made leads or cords. 

 

Custom  wiring  should  only  be  carried  out  by 
qualified personnel. 

 

To  prevent  electric  shock,  do  not  operate  the 
product with any of the conductor portion of the 
speaker wire exposed. 

 

NOTE: For reasons of safety and performance, use 
only  high-quality  fully  insulated  speaker  cables  of 
stranded copper wire. Use the largest wire size that 
is economically and physically practical, and make 
sure the cables are no longer than necessary.
