Protection against
liquids & heat
1.2
The DAVE is not
protected against liquids
of any kind. Never place
containers of liquid on DAVE.
Never allow DAVE to come
into contact with moisture or
liquids; doing so could result in
electrocution or damage to the
DAVE’s internal circuitry.
Be aware that liquids, including
water that has dried, can leave
minerals that can aect the
PCB and other components,
which could eventually lead to
oxidisation and short-circuiting.
If the DAVE comes into contact
with moisture or liquids,
immediately disconnect from
the mains power supply, and
connected equipment, and
contact Chord Electronics for
further advice.
The DAVE has internal
thermal protection
which will shut down
the unit in the event of excessive
temperatures being reached.
Never operate the DAVE near
sources of heat or naked flames
as this will decrease the lifespan
of the internal components.
It is advised that you do not
operate the DAVE in an area
of direct sunlight or on top of
significant heat- producing
devices.
Please be aware that it is entirely
normal for the DAVE to become
warm during use, particularly
within a stacked configuration.
If you are concerned about the
temperatures, please switch
the device o using the front
panel or consider a dierent
placement.
