INSTRUCTION MANUAL
MEGAPHONE ER-3215
2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
A handheld 15 W megaphone with removable microphone.
Can be used as a shoulder-type megaphone when the
microphone is detached.
Handle and microphone with anti-bacteria treatment improve
hygiene and safety during use.
3. HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
• The ER-3215 megaphone is not waterproof.
Avoid exposure to rain or environments where it may be
splashed by water or other liquids.
• Immediately contact your TOA dealer if the following
irregularities should occur. To avoid unit failure, make no
further attempt to use the unit in these conditions.
· Smoke coming from the unit or a strange smell detected.
· Water or other foreign objects get inside the unit.
· No sound heard (after checking to be sure that the batteries
are loaded in correct orientation, and satisfactorily charged).
• Avoid storing the unit in humid or dusty locations, in locations
exposed to direct sunlight, near heaters, or exposed to sooty
smoke, as these conditions may result in unit failure.
• When batteries are left installed in the megaphone for extended
periods of time, be sure to check them periodically for charge
and leakage.
• Do not use the unit for extended periods of time with a distorted
sound output. This could cause the inner parts to become hot
and possibly result in unit failure.
• Noise may be produced when a mobile phone is used near the
unit. However, this is not a failure. Use the mobile phone as far
as possible from the unit.
• Use a tightly wrung-out damp cloth to clean the unit. If the unit
becomes extremely dirty, use a cloth moistened in a neutral
detergent and tightly wrung-out. Never use volatile liquids such
as benzene, thinner, or alcohol to clean the unit, as these may
deform or discolor its case.
