■Safety precautions
Although this product was designed to be used safely, failing to use it correctly
may result in an accident. To ensure safety, observe all warnings and cautions
while using the product.
■Cautions for the product

■Notes on use
• Do not swing or pull the product. Doing so may cause disconnection or
damage.
• The circuitry in the microphone takes about 30 seconds to stabilize after power
is supplied. You may hear some audio disturbance during startup.
• The connectors are equipped with a special RFI-shielding mechanism. If you
remove or replace the connector, you may adversely affect the microphone’s RFI
immunity. The Audio-Technica Crimp Tool (ATCT) and shield parts are required to
shorten the cable and reinstall the connector while maintaining the RFI immunity.
• Install the microphone on a flat, unobstructed mounting surface. Make sure
that the sound source is not below the mounting surface.
• Depending on the surface finish of a table, the desk stand power module may
leave marks on the table.
• Do not excessively bend the gooseneck assembly, rotate the ends of the
capsule, or pull on them. Doing so may cause disconnection or malfunction.
• The product is a modular system comprised of a microphone element,
gooseneck assembly and power module. Make sure the parts are firmly
attached before use.
• Do not remove the rubber O-ring on the power module connecting part at the
lower section of the gooseneck assembly.
• When attaching parts, remove the black cap on the capsule connecting part
of the gooseneck assembly. Do not remove the silicone part at the end of
