• Please read, follow, and keep all instructions before using
this product.
• Cleaning: The product should be cleaned only with a

ming pool; and the like.
• Do Not Open: Do not open the device or attempt to
disassemble the internal parts or modify them in any
way. The device contains no user- serviceable parts. If
it should appear to be malfunctioning, discontinue use
immediately and have it inspected by qualied Altec
Lansing service personnel.
• Replacement Parts: When replacement parts are
required, be sure the service technician has used replace-
ment parts specied by the manufacturer or have the
same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized
substitutions may result in re, electric shock, or other
hazards.
• Location: If you use a stand, check the stand’s
specications and make sure that it is sturdy enough to
support the weight of the speaker. You may need to limit
the number of people around the placed stand, to avoid
toppling the device or causing damage to the internal
components. Also, be sure to keep the following cautions.
– Use the speaker stands with their legs fully opened.
– Mount only one speaker on each speaker stand.
– Tighten fastening screws securely.
– Remove the speakers from the stands before moving
the stands or adjusting their height.
– Add weight such as sand bags around the stand legs to
prevent them from falling over.
– Use the stand, maximum height of 140cm (55”).
– If you use the socket of a subwoofer to allow
mounting of a satellite speaker, use a pole 100cm max.
with an outer diameter of 35mm (1-3/8”).
– When carrying the device, always use two or more
people.
– Before moving the unit, remove all plugged cables.
– Do not use the speaker’s handles for suspended

– Do not expose the device to excessive dust or
vibrations, or extreme cold or heat (such as in direct
sunlight, near a heater) to prevent the possibility of panel
disguration or damage to the internal components.
– Do not place the device in an unstable position where
it may accidentally fall over.
• Rigging Safety: The Altec Lansing Rigging System’s
provisions for use require that it be installed in accor-
dance with the following specications. Before you begin
installation:
– Ensure that points where you
have chosen to mount (for example
a chain hoist) on the stage roof or
venues ceiling comply with accident
prevention and that the safety
standards authority has certied
them for the full load.
– Inspect all components to
ensure they are in good working
order, taking care that all
tracks, trusses and connecting
components (cables, ttings) are
undamaged.
– Use only the parts specied in this
operating manual! Be sure to protect
cabinets against rain and moisture
when they are deployed outdoors.
– If parts of the load-
bearing equipment have
been deformed, it is up
to the manufacturer to
determine if they are
repairable.
The principle requirement for safe
handling and trouble-free operation of this rigging
system is a thorough understanding of fundamental
operating safety and safety regulations. This operating
manual contains the most vital instructions concerning
the safe operation of the enclosures.
• 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.
