INTERNATIONAL WARRANTY

WARNING: KICKER products are capable of producing sound levels that can permanently damage your hearing! Turning up a
system to a level that has audible distortion is more damaging to your ears than listening to an undistorted system at the same
volume level. The threshold of pain is always an indicator that the sound level is too loud and may permanently damage your
hearing. Please use common sense when controlling volume.

ADVERTENCIA: Los excitadores KICKER son capaces de producir niveles de sonido que pueden danar permanentemente
el oido. Subir el volumen del sistema hasta un nivel que produzca distorsi6n es mas danino para el oido que escuchar un
sistema sin distorsi6n al mismo volumen. El dolor es siempre una indicaci6n de que el sonido es muy fuerte y que puede danar
permanentemente el oido. Sea precavido cuando controle el volumen.
La frase "combustible para vivir la vida Livin' Loud™ a todo volumen" se refiere al entusiasmo por la vida que la marca KICKER
