For Dolby Cinema theatres only: If your installation is deemed to require the use of
safety cables by Dolby or a certified engineer, refer to the information in the
Dolby
System 136 Additional Safety Cable Installation Requirements
document, which is
available from your Dolby Cinema technical representative.
Make sure that no water pipes, natural gas lines, electrical wire, or conduit are
present where the speaker is to be installed. Cutting or drilling into water pipes,
natural gas lines, electrical wire, or conduit could cause serious personal injury or
property damage.
Dolby is not responsible for the application of its products for any purpose or the
misuse of this information for any purpose. Furthermore, Dolby is not responsible for
the abuse of its products caused by avoiding compliance with inspection and
maintenance procedures or any other abuse.
BKT.136 tie (coupling) plates (included with CS136MH) are used to connect the two
CS136LF speakers together to prevent movement or shifting of the cabinets due to
vibration from high levels of sound. These brackets must be installed prior to system
use. Dolby disclaims any liability, including damages or injury, if installer fails to
comply with these instructions.
BKT.FLR floor brackets are available (sold separately) to secure the entire speaker
system to the auditorium mounting surface. Vibration from this type of speaker
system is high and may cause cabinets to shift. Failure to secure the bottom speaker
cabinet to the mounting surface may result in the entire system tipping or falling,
which may cause damage or injury. Proper selection of mounting hardware is not
included; proper assembly and installation of mounting hardware, including, but not
limited to, selection of appropriate weight-bearing support and bracket use, are the
exclusive responsibility of the installer. Dolby disclaims any liability, including
damage or injury, for the selection of i) non-Dolby manufactured mounting hardware
or ii) third-party manufactured mounting hardware not previously approved in
writing by Dolby, and/or third-party bracket installation. Any modification to the
speaker system hardware provided by Dolby (for example, mounting by drilling holes
into the speaker system) will render the product warranty null and void.
Use proper lifting techniques when working with heavy objects to avoid personal
injury.
No open flame sources should be placed on or near the apparatus. Do not install
near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus
that produce heat.
Storage temperature: -4 to +140°F (-20 to +60°C). The products covered by this
manual are not intended for use in high-moisture environments. Moisture can
damage the product and cause corrosion of electrical contacts and metal parts.
Avoid exposing the speakers to direct moisture. Keep speakers out of extended or
intense direct sunlight. Premature product failure or serious personal injury could
occur if this product is used outdoors or in wet indoor environments.
Hearing damage can occur by prolonged exposure to excessive sound pressure level
(SPL); the loudspeaker is easily capable of generating SPL sufficient to cause
permanent hearing damage to performers, production crew, or audience members.
Caution should be taken to avoid prolonged exposure to SPL in excess of 90 dB.
