2 SAFETY WARNINGS
The installation and servicing instructions in this manual are for use by qualified personnel only.
-
Read All Instructions. All safety and operating instructions must be read before operating the product. They also
must be retained for future reference, as it contains a number of useful hints for determining the best combination of
equipment settings for Yr particular application.
-
Heed All Warnings. All warnings on the product and those listed in the operating instructions must be adhered to.
-
Heat. This product must be situated away from any heat sources such as radiators or other products (including
power amplifiers or transmitters) that produce heat.
-
Power Sources. This product must be operated from the type of power source indicated on the marking label and in
the installation instructions. If you are not sure of the type of power supplied to your facility, consult your local power
company. Make sure the AC main voltage corresponds to that indicated in the technical specifications. If a different
voltage (ex. 110/115 VAC) is available, open the equipment closure and set the voltage switch on the main supply
circuit, located behind the AC socket
-
Power Cord Protection. Power supply cords must be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on nor pinched
by items placed upon or against them. Pay particular attention to the cords at AC wall plugs and convenience
receptacles, and at the point where the cord plugs into the product
-
Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When
a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.
-
Lightning. For added protection for this product during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for
long periods of time, unplug it from the AC wall outlet and the audio connections. This will prevent damage to the
product due to lightning and power line surges
-
Installation. Configuration and installation should only be carried out by a competent installation engineer
-
Cabling. Using high quality wires, well protected. Make sure the cable integrity.
This symbol alerts you to the presence of dangerous voltage inside the closure –voltage which
may be sufficient to constitute a risk of shock. Do not perform any servicing other than that
contained in the operating instructions. Refer all servicing to qualified personnel
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of
important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the
appliance.
Do not change the voltage setting or replace the mains fuse without first turning the unit off
and unplugging the mains cord
Make sure the AC main voltage corresponds to that indicated in the technical specifications.
THIS APPARATUS MUST BE EARTHED !
To avoid risk of fire use the correct value fuse, as indicated on the label stuck on the right
side of the unit.
This apparatus uses a single pole mains switch and does therefore not separate the unit
completely from the mains power. To completely separate from mains power (in the event of
danger) unplug mains power cord. As the MAINS plug is the disconnect device, the
disconnect device shall remain readily operable.
