Important Notes; Safety Precautions - RCF TTS12-A User Manual

IMPORTANT NOTES

Before connecting and using the amplifier, please read this instruction manual carefully and keep it on hand for
future reference. The manual is to be considered an integral part of the product and must accompany the amplifier
when it changes ownership as a reference for correct installation and use as well as for the safety precautions.
RCF Spa. will not assume any responsibility for the incorrect installation and/or use of the
WARNING: To prevent the risk of fire or electric shock, never expose this equipment to rain or humidity.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

1. All the precautions, in particular the safety ones, must be read with special attention, as they provide important
information.
2. The power supply voltage of this equipment is sufficiently high to involve a risk of electrocution; therefore, never
install or connect the product with the power supply switched on.
3. Before powering up the amplifier, make sure that all the connections have been made correctly and that the
voltage of your power mains corresponds to the voltage shown on the rating plate on the unit; if it does not, please
contact your RCF dealer.
4. The metallic parts of the unit are earthed by means of the power cable. In the event that the current outlet used
for power does not provide the earth connection, contact a qualified electrician to earth the equipment using the
dedicated terminal.
5. To protect the power cable from damage, make sure that it is positioned so that it cannot be stepped on or
crushed by objects.
6. To prevent the risk of electric shock, never open the amplifier. There are no parts on the inside that the user
needs to access.
7. Make sure that no objects or liquids can get into the amplifier, as this may cause a short circuit.
8. Never attempt to carry out any operations, modifications, or repairs that are not expressly described in this
manual.
Contact your authorized service centre or qualified personnel should any of the following occur:
the amplifier does not function (or functions in an anomalous way);
-
- the power supply cable has been damaged;
- objects or liquids have got into the unit;
the amplifier has been subject to heavy impact.
-
9. When the amplifier is not to be used for long periods of time, switch it off and disconnect the power cable.
10. If the amplifier begins to emit any strange odours or smoke, switch it off immediately and disconnect the power
supply cable.
11. Do not connect this product to any equipment or accessories not specified.
For suspended installation, only use the dedicated anchoring points and do not try to hang this product using
HANDLES or elements that are unsuitable or not specific for this purpose.
Also check the suitability of the support surface to which the product is anchored (wall, ceiling, structure, etc.), and
the components used for attachment (screw anchors, screws, brackets not supplied by RCF etc.), which must
guarantee the security of the system/installation over time, also considering, for example, the mechanical vibrations
normally generated by the transducer.
To prevent the risk of falling equipment, do not stack multiple units of this product unless this possibility is specified
in the instruction manual.
12. RCF Spa. strongly recommends this product is installed by professional qualified installers (or specialised
firms) who can ensure correct installation and certify it according to the regulations in force.
The entire audio system must comply with the current standards and regulations regarding electrical systems.
13. Supports and trolleys
The equipment should only be used on trolleys or supports, where necessary, that are recommended by the
manufacturer. The equipment/support/trolley assembly must be moved with extreme caution. Sudden stops,
excessive pushing force and uneven floors may cause the assembly to overturn.
14. There are numerous mechanical and electrical factors to be considered when installing a professional audio
system (in addition to those which are strictly acoustic, such as sound pressure, angles of coverage, frequency
response, etc.).
15. Hearing loss
Exposure to high sound levels can cause permanent hearing loss. The acoustic pressure level that leads to hearing
loss is different from person to person and depends on the duration of exposure. To prevent potentially dangerous
exposure to high levels of acoustic pressure, anyone who is exposed to these levels should use adequate
protection devices. When a transducer capable of producing high sound levels is being used, it is therefore
necessary to wear ear plugs or protective earphones.
See the technical specifications in the instruction manual for the maximum sound pressure the loudspeaker is
capable of producing
product.IANO
