Thank you for purchasing TOA's products.
Please carefully follow the instructions in this manual to
ensure long, trouble-free use of your equipment.
1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Before installation or use, be sure to carefully read all the
instructions in this section for correct and safe operation.
• Be sure to follow all the precautionary instructions in
this section, which contain important warnings and/
or cautions regarding safety.
• After reading, keep this manual handy for future reference.
CAUTION
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which,
if mishandled, could result in moderate or minor
personal injury, and/or property damage.
When Installing the Unit
• (When attached to the ST-73A) Avoid installing or
mounting the unit in unstable locations, such as on
a rickety table or a slanted surface. Doing so may
result in the unit falling down and causing personal
injury and/or property damage.
• Do not lay the connection cable where it can be
walked on or tripped over, causing personal injury.
2. HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
• When using the DM-524B or DM-524S, do not grasp the
head of microphone or microphone element section in
order to avoid acoustic feedback.
• Avoid installing the unit in humid or dusty locations, in
locations exposed to the direct sunlight, near the heaters,
or in locations generating sooty smoke or steam as doing
otherwise may result in unit failure.
• Take care not to drop the unit onto the floor nor bump it
against a hard object as the unit could fail.
• To clean, be sure to first disconnect the connection
cable, then wipe with a dry cloth. When the unit gets very
dirty, use a cloth damped in a neutral cleanser. Never
use benzene, thinner, alcohol, or chemically-treated
cleaning cloth because such volatile liquids could deform
or discolor the unit.
• (When attached to the ST-73A) Do not pick up the
microphone stand by the microphone, as this could lead
to failure.
