FR SERIES AMPLIFIERS

1. Read these instructions.
2. Keep these instructions.
3. Heed all warnings.
4. Follow all instructions.
5. Do not use this apparatus near water.
6. Clean only with dry cloth.
7. Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the

manufacturer’s instructions.

8. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers,

stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

9. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type

plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other.

A grounding-type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong.

The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the

provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for

replacement of the obsolete outlet.

10. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at

plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the

apparatus.

11. Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
12. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the

manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use

caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury

from tip-over.

13. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long

periods of time.

14. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required

when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-

supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have

fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or

moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

15. This apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing, and no

object filled with liquids, such as vases or beer glasses, shall be placed

on the apparatus.

16. This apparatus has been designed with Class-I construction and must

be connected to a mains socket outlet with a protective earthing con-

nection (the third grounding prong).

17. This apparatus has been equipped with an all-pole, rocker-style AC

mains power switch. This switch is located on the front panel and

should remain readily accessible to the user.

18. This apparatus does not exceed the Class A/Class B (whichever is

applicable) limits for radio noise emissions from digital apparatus as

set out in the radio interference regulations of the Canadian Department

of Communications.

ATTENTIONLe présent appareil numérique n’émet pas de bruits

radioélectriques dépassant las limites applicables aux appareils numériques de

class A/de class B (selon le cas) prescrites dans le réglement sur le brouillage

radioélectrique édicté par les ministere des communications du Canada.
19. Exposure to extremely high noise levels may cause permanent hearing

loss. Individuals vary considerably in susceptibility to noise-induced

hearing loss, but nearly everyone will lose some hearing if exposed to

sufficiently intense noise for a period of time. The U.S. Government’s

Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has specified

the permissible noise level exposures shown in the following chart.

According to OSHA, any exposure in excess of these permissible limits

could result in some hearing loss. To ensure against potentially danger-

ous exposure to high sound pressure levels, it is recommended that all

persons exposed to equipment capable of producing high sound pres-

sure levels use hearing protectors while the equipment is in operation.

Ear plugs or protectors in the ear canals or over the ears must be worn

when operating the equipment in order to prevent permanent hearing

loss if exposure is in excess of the limits set forth here.

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an equilateral
triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated
"dangerous voltage" within the product's enclosure, that may be
of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.
Le symbole éclair avec point de flèche à l'intérieur d'un triangle
équilatéral est utilisé pour alerter l'utilisateur de la présence à
l'intérieur du coffret de "voltage dangereux" non isolé d'ampleur
suffisante pour constituer un risque d'éléctrocution.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to
alert the user of the presence of important operating and maintenance
(servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.
Le point d'exclamation à l'intérieur d'un triangle équilatéral est
employé pour alerter les utilisateurs de la présence d'instructions
