Power Cord
Always plug in the power plug least. The power plug
must always be inserted without force. Make sure that
the plug is tightly connected with the outlet. Never let
the power cord come into contact with other cables!
Handle the power cord and all connections with the
mains with particular caution! Never touch them with
wet hands, as this could lead to mortal electrical shock.
Never modify, bend, strain mechanically, put pressure
on, pull or heat up the power cord. Never operate next
to sources of heat or cold. Disregard can lead to power
cord damages, fire or mortal electrical shock. The cable
insert or the female part in the device must never be
strained. There must always be sufficient cable to the
device. Otherwise, the cable may be damaged which
may lead to mortal damage. Make sure that the power
cord is never crimped or damaged by sharp edges.
Check the device and the power cord from time to time.
If extension cords are used, make sure that the core
diameter is sufficient for the required power
consumption of the device. All warnings concerning the
power cords are also valid for possible extension cords.
Always disconnect from the mains, when the device is
not in use or before cleaning it. Only handle the power
cord by the plug. Never pull out the plug by tugging the
power cord. Otherwise, the cable or plug can be
damaged leading to mortal electrical shock. If the power
plug or the power switch is not accessible, the device
must be disconnected via the mains.
If the power plug or the device is dusty, the device must
be taken out of operation, disconnected and then be
cleaned with a dry cloth. Dust can reduce the insulation
which may lead to mortal electrical shock. More severe
dirt in and at the device should only be removed by a
specialist.
Secure Setup
Please note that speaker systems could move due to
bass beats and vibrations. Furthermore, unintended
pushes from DJs, musicians or the audience present
further risk. This is why the PA system must always be
secured against moving or the respective area has to
be blocked.
Prior to Switching on
Before the PA system is switched on all faders and
volume controls have to be set to zero or minimum
position.
Children and Amateurs
Keep away children and amateurs!
Maintenance and Service
There are no serviceable parts inside the PA system.
Maintenance and service operations are only to be
carried out by authorized dealers!

definitively, take them to a local recycling plant
for a disposal which is not harmful to the
environment. Do not dispose of as municipal waste.

information.
Battery Directive
Never dispose of discharged batteries in the
household waste. Please take them to a special
waste disposal or a collection container at your

Regarding Rechargeable batteries and Batteries
The given battery run time depends largely on the
operating mode and ambient temperature. Low
temperatures will reduce the run time considerably.
Before using the device for the first time, completely
charge the battery.
Never dispose of rechargeable batteries/batteries in the
household waste. If the device is to be disposed, the
batteries have to be removed first. Take it to a local
recycling plant for a disposal which is not harmful to the
environment. Do not dispose of rechargeable
batteries/batteries into household waste!
Make sure that the poles are correct when inserting the
battery. Never let batteries lying around openly as there
is the danger that these can be swallowed by children
or domestic animals. Immediately consult a doctor
when batteries are swallowed! Leaking or damaged
batteries can cause irritations when getting into contact
with the skin. In this case use appropriate protective
gloves. Make sure that the batteries cannot be short-
circuited, thrown into the fire and be charged. There is a
danger of explosion.
The optional lithium-ion battery is subject to the
Dangerous Goods Legislation requirements. The user
can transport the battery by road without further
requirements. When being transported by third parties
(e.g.: air transport or forwarding agency), special
requirements on packaging and labelling must be
observed. For preparation of the item being shipped,
consulting an expert for hazardous material is required.
Dispatch battery only when the housing is undamaged.
Tape or mask off open contacts and pack up the battery
in such a manner that it cannot move around in the
packaging. Please also observe possibly more detailed
national regulations.
