READ these instructions.
KEEP these instructions.
HEED all warnings.
FOLLOW all instructions.
DO NOT use this apparatus near water.
CLEAN ONLY with dry cloth.
DO NOT block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manu-
facturer's instructions.
DO NOT install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves,
or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
DO NOT defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A
polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type
plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wider blade or the third
prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your
outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
PROTECT the power cord from being walked on or pinched, particularly at plugs,
convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.

UNPLUG this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of
time.
REFER all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the
apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is dam-
aged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus
has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been
dropped.
DO NOT expose the apparatus to dripping and splashing. DO NOT put objects filled
with liquids, such as vases, on the apparatus.
Remove the batteries from the receiver if the system will not be used for a long
period of time. This will avoid any damage resulting from a defective, leaking
battery.
DO NOT throw used batteries into a fire. Be sure to dispose of or recycle used
batteries in accordance with local waste disposal laws.

Licensing: Note that a ministerial license to operate this equipment may be required in certain areas. Consult your national authority for
possible requirements.
NOTE: THIS EQUIPMENT MAY BE CAPABLE OF OPERATING ON SOME FREQUENCIES NOT AUTHORIZED IN YOUR
REGION. PLEASE CONTACT YOUR NATIONAL AUTHORITY TO OBTAIN INFORMATION ON AUTHORIZED FREQUENCIES
FOR WIRELESS MICROPHONE PRODUCTS IN YOUR REGION
LICENSING INFORMATION
THIS RADIO EQUIPMENT IS INTENDED FOR USE IN PROFESSIONAL ENTERTAINMENT AND SIMILAR APPLICATIONS.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Galaxy Audio Incorporated could void your authority to operate the equipment.
Licensing of Galaxy Audio wireless microphone equipment is the user's responsibility, and licensability depends on the user's classification
and application, and on the selected frequency. Galaxy Audio strongly urges the user to contact the appropriate telecommunications
authority concerning proper licensing, and before choosing and ordering frequencies.
In order to use this system safely, avoid prolonged listening at excessive sound pressure levels. Please use the following guidelines established by
the Occupational Safety Health Administration (OSHA) on maximum time exposure to sound pressure levels before hearing damage occurs.
90 dB SPL at 8 hours
95 dB SPL at 4 hours
100 dB SPL at 2 hours
105 dB SPL at 1 hour
110 dB SPL at ½ hour
115 dB SPL at 15 minutes
120 dB SPL — avoid or damage may occur
USING THIS SYSTEM AT EXCESSIVE VOLUMES CAN CAUSE PERMANENT HEARING DAMAGE.
USE AS LOW A VOLUME AS POSSIBLE.
WARNING!
It is difficult to measure the exact Sound Pressure Levels (SPL) present at the eardrum in live applications. In addition to the volume setting on the
Personal Monitors, the SPL in the ear is affected by ambient sound from floor wedges or other devices. The isolation provided by the fit of quality
Here are some general tips to follow in the use of this product to protect your ears from damage.
• Turn up the volume control only far enough to hear properly.
• Ringing in the ears may indicate that the gain levels are too high. Try lowering the gain levels.
• Have your ears checked by an audiologist on a regular basis. If you experience wax buildup in your ears, stop using the system until an
audiologist has examined your ears.
• Wipe the ear molds with an antiseptic before and after use to avoid infections. Stop using the earphones if they are causing great discomfort
or infection.
earpieces is also an important factor in determining the SPL.
For more information, call the FCC at 1-888-CALL-FCC (TTY: 1-888-TELL-FCC) or visit the FCC's wireless microphone website at
www.fcc.gov/cgb/wirelessmicrophones
Most users do not need a license to operate this wireless microphone system. Nevertheless, operating this microphone system without a
license is subject to certain restrictions: the system may not cause harmful interference; it must operate at a low power level (not in excess
of 50 milliwatts); and it has no protection from interference received from any other device. Purchasers should also be aware that the FCC
is currently evaluating use of wireless microphone systems, and these rules are subject to change.

Wireless Tips
Maintain line of sight between the transmitter and receiver antennas.
Do not have walls, metal objects, large crowds, etc. blocking the line of sight between the transmitter
and receiver.
Antennas on the stationary equipment should be kept 6-8' above the ground.
Antennas can be mounted on stands or walls using brackets such as the ANT-LB.
On body pack receivers/transmitters, avoid putting them in your pocket, and/or folding the antenna
under the pack. The antenna should hang freely and openly.
Keep the distance between transmitters and receivers as short as possible.
If distances above 20-30' are unavoidable, directional antennas such as the ANT-PDL can improve
reception by rejecting signals outside their pickup angle.
Find out what TV stations are broadcasting in your area and avoid the channels they are on.
This information is available from many sources on line, such as www.tvfool.com.
If your receiver is showing that it is receiving RF when your transmitter is turned off, you need to move
to another frequency.
If you are using several systems, you can contact for assistance in [email protected]
frequency coordination.
Make certain you are using fresh batteries, rechargeable batteries may be used, but they discharge at a
much faster rate than alkaline.
