flat against a wall or placed in a built up enclosure that will impede the flow of cooling air.
7.
This product should not be placed near a source of heat such as stove, radiator, or another heat producing amplifier.
8.
Connect only to a power supply of the type marker on the unit adjacent to the power supply cord.
9.
Never break off the ground pin on a power supply cord.
10.
Power supply cords should always be handled carefully. Never walk or place equipment on power supply cords.
Periodically check cords for cuts or signs of stress, especially at the plug and the point where the chord exits the unit.
11.
The power supply cord should be unplugged when the unit is to be unused for long periods of time.
12.
If this product is to be mounted in an equipment rack, rear support should be provided.
13.
Metal parts can be cleaned with a damp cloth. The vinyl covering used on some units can be cleaned with a damp
cloth or ammonia based household cleaner if necessary. Disconnect the unit from the power supply before cleaning.
14.

The unit does not appear to operate correctly
The unit has been dropped or the enclosure damaged.
16.
The user should not attempt to service the equipment. All service work is done by a qualified service technician.
17.
Exposure to extremely high noise levels may cause a permanent hearing gloss. Individuals very considerably in
susceptibility to noise induced hearing loss, but nearly everyone will lose some hearing if exposed to sufficiently intense
noise for a sufficient time. The U.S. Government's Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has
specified the following permissible noise level exposure.
Duration Per Day In Hours

According to OSHA, any exposure in excess of the above permissible limits could result in some hearing loss. Ear plugs or
protectors in the ear canals or over the ears must be worn when operating this amplification system in order to prevent a
permanent hearing loss if exposure exceeds the limits set forth above. To ensure against potentially dangerous exposure to
high sound pressure levels it is recommended that all persons exposed to equipment capable of producing high sound
pressure levels such as this amplification system be protected by hearing protectors while this unit is in operation.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: To prevernt electrical shock or fire hazard, do not expose this appliance to rain or moisture. Before using this
appliance, read the operating guide for further warnings.
Caution:
Risk of electrical shock - DO NOT OPEN!
Caution:
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not remove cover. No user servicable parts inside. Refer servicing to
qualified service personnel.
Intended to alert the user to the presence of uninstalled "dangerous voltage" within the product's enclosure
that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.
Intended to alert the user of the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in
the literature accompanying the product.
This apparatus must be earthed.
EMC warning
It is inherent in the design of a loudspeaker and in the design of guitar pickups that they should emit or be affected by electro magnetic fields. Loudspeaker enclosures should not
be used less than two meters away from equipment, which is likely to be affected by electro magnetic interference.
Likewise, guitar fitted with electro magnetic pickups should not be used less than two meters away from any source of emissions such as loudspeakers. Emissions from
loudspeakers are dependent on the frequency characteristics of the drive unit. Levels were measured direct from the driver of 30 dBuV. These levels are reduced to a safe level at
a distance of 1,27 meters from the drivers.
