IMPORTANT ADVICE ON SAFETY!

PLEASE READ BEFORE USE AND KEEP FOR LATER USE!

• The unit has been built by Hughes & Kettner in accordance with IEC 65 and left the

factory in safe working order. To maintain this condition and ensure non-risk operation,
the user must follow the advice and warning comments found in the operating
instructions. The unit conforms to Protection Class 1 (protectively earthed).

• HUGHES & KETTNER ONLY GUARANTEE THE SAFETY, RELIABILITY AND

EFFICIENCY OF THE UNIT IF:

• Assembly, extension, re-adjustment, modifications or repairs are carried out by Hughes

& Kettner or by persons authorized to do so.

• The electrical installation of the relevant area complies with the requirements of IEC

(ANSI) specifications.

•The unit is used in accordance with the operating instructions.
• The unit is regularly checked and tested for electrical safety by a competent technician.
WARNING:
• If covers are opened or sections of casing are removed, except where this can be done

manually, live parts can become exposed.

• If it is necessary to open the unit this must be isolated from all power sources. Please

take this into account before carrying out adjustments, maintenance, repairs and before
replacing parts.

• Adjustment, maintenance and repairs carried out when the unit has been opened and is

still live may only be performed by specialist personnel who are authorized by the
manufacturer (in accordance with VBG 4) and who are aware of the associated
hazards.

• Loudspeaker outputs which have the IEC 417/5036 symbol (Diagram 1, below) can

carry voltages which are hazardous if they are made contact with. Before the unit is
switched on, the loudspeaker should therefore only be connected using the lead
recommended by the manufacturer.

• Where possible, all plugs on connection cables must be screwed or locked onto the

casing.

• Replace fuses using only those of the specified type and current rating.
• It is not permitted to use repaired fuses or to short-circuit the fuse holder.
• Never interrupt the protective conductor connection.
• Surfaces which are equipped with the „HOT“ mark (Diagram 2, below), rear panels or

covers with cooling slits, cooling bodies and their covers, as well as tubes and their
covers are purposely designed to dissipate high temperatures and should therefore not
be touched.

• High loudspeaker levels can cause permanent hearing damage. You should therefore

avoid the direct vicinity of loudspeakers operating at high levels. Wear hearing
protection if continuously exposed to high levels.

MAINS CONNECTION:
• The unit is designed for continuous operation.
• The set operating voltage must match the local mains supply voltage.
• Caution: The unit mains switch must be in position ‘0’ before the mains cable is

connected.

• The unit is connected to the mains via the supplied power unit or power cable.
• Power unit: Never use a damaged connection lead. Any damage must be rectified by a

competent technician.

• Avoid connection to the mains supply in distributor boxes together with several other

power consumers.

• The plug socket for the power supply must be positioned near the unit and must be

easily accessible.

PLACE OF INSTALLATION:
• The unit should stand only on a clean, horizontal working surface.
• The unit must not be exposed to vibrations during operation.
• Keep away from moisture and dust where possible.
• Do not place the unit near water, baths, wash basins, kitchen sinks, wet areas,

swimming pools or damp rooms. Do not place objects containing liquid on the unit -
vases, glasses, bottles etc.

• Ensure that the unit is well ventilated.
• Any ventilation openings must never be blocked or covered. The unit must be

positioned at least 20 cm away from walls. The unit may only be fitted in a rack if
adequate ventilation is ensured and if the manufacturer’s installation instructions are
followed.

• Keep away from direct sunlight and the immediate vicinity of heating elements and

radiant heaters or similar devices.

• If the unit is suddenly moved from a cold to a warm location, condensation can form

inside it. This must be taken into account particularly in the case of tube units. Before
switching on, wait until the unit has reached room temperature.

• Accessories: Do not place the unit on an unsteady trolley, stand, tripod, base or table. If

the unit falls down, it can cause personal injury and itself become damaged. Use the
unit only with the trolley, rack stand, tripod or base recommended by the manufacturer
or purchased together with the unit. When setting the unit up, all the manufacturer’s
instructions must be followed and the setup accessories recommended by the
manufacturer must be used. Any combination of unit and stand must be moved
carefully. A sudden stop, excessive use of force and uneven floors can cause the
combination of unit and stand to tip over.

• Additional equipment: Never use additional equipment which has not been

recommended by the manufacturer as this can cause accidents.

• To protect the unit during bad weather or when left unattended for prolonged periods,

the mains plug should be disconnected. This prevents the unit being damaged by
lightning and power surges in the AC mains supply.
