When a EAW Commercial product capable of producing high sound levels is being used, it is therefore necessary to wear ear plugs or protective earphones when the limits shown in the table are exceeded.
14. Rigging Precautions: When mounting or suspending EAW Commercial loudspeaker enclosures, it is essential that load ratings, rigging techniques, and special safety considerations be appropriate for the installation. Use only the mounting/rigging points on the loudspeaker enclosure intended for this purpose. The user must determine the load requirements, dynamic loading, and any other contributing factors affecting the loudspeaker installation.
2. INTRODUCTION Congratulations on the purchase of your new EAW Commercial loudspeaker. You now own one of the finest professional audio products available – the result of exceptional engineering and meticulous craftsmanship.

• Use speaker cables that have markings to distinguish the polarity, such as insulation or conductors of different colors. • Before using the loudspeaker, carefully check that all the connections have been made correctly to make sure there are no accidental short circuits that could cause electrical sparks.
• Most EAW Commercial loudspeakers are capable of sound levels that can be damaging to human hearing. Take precautions so that audiences are not exposed to such levels.
EAW Commercial continually engages in research related to product improvement, new materials, and production methods. Design refinements are introduced into existing products without notice as a routine expression of that philosophy. For this reason, any current EAW Commercial product may differ in some respect from its published description, but will always equal or exceed the original design specifications unless otherwise stated.

• Loudspeaker is not working. Connect the loudspeaker cable to a known good loudspeaker, leaving all equipment set to the same levels. If the problem disappears, the loudspeaker is probably not working. Contact EAW Commercial Technical Support for appropriate troubleshooting.
8. SERVICE and MAINTENANCE Maintenance Usually, your EAW Commercial loudspeaker will not require regular maintenance for normal use. However, you can do several things to keep your loudspeaker in good operating and cosmetic condition. • Testing: Periodically test your loudspeaker for proper performance. A simple test is to play a CD through it using well-defined, articulate, wide-range program material.
