IMPORTANT WARNINGS & SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

1. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS – Carefully and become familiar with the features and functions of these products before operating

them.

2. RETAIN THESE INSTRUCTIONS – For future reference.

3. COMPLY WITH ALL WARNINGS – Non compliance may void warranty of the product.

4. USE WITH AMPLIFIERS – In order to avoid damage to drivers and other equipment, it is advisable to establish and follow a

routine for powering up and powering down a sound system. With all system components connected, turn on source equipment

(mixers, signal processors, record and playback units etc.) BEFORE powering up ampliﬁers. Transient voltages from powering up

source equipment can damage speakers if ampliﬁers are already turned on.

Make sure that ampliﬁer volumes are set to their minimum settings and power up any system ampliﬁers LAST. It is recommended

that all system components be allowed to stabilize for few seconds before any source signals are introduced or level setting

adjustments are made. Similarly, when shutting systems down, turn all ampliﬁers oﬀ ﬁrst, before powering down any other

system components.

5. CABLES – Do not use shielded or microphone cables for connection between ampliﬁers and speakers. Use only approved

speaker cables with proper connectors.

6. RIGGING – SUSPENDING – MOUNTING – RIGGING – Suspending and mounting of these speaker systems can expose members

of the public to serious health risks and even death. Under no circumstances attempt to rig, suspend or otherwise mount these

regulations must be followed. If you are not properly qualiﬁed or do not know of pertinent regulations, consult qualiﬁed personnel

for advice.

7. CAUTION – These professional loudspeaker systems are capable of generating very high sound pressure levels. Use care with

placement and operation to avoid exposure to excessive volume levels. Permanent hearing damage can result when operated to

extreme levels.

8. SERVICE – There are no user serviceable parts inside this product. Users should not attempt to service this product.

Warranty nulliﬁcation could result if this is attempted.
