Precautions:
1. POWER CORD NOTICE FOR INTERNATIONAL OPERATION - Please call Digital Audio Labs Support at (952) 471-7700.
2. Power – WARNING, BEFORE TURNING ON THE POWER FOR THE FIRST TIME, READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION
CAREFULLY. All models are designed for use only with the power supply voltage of the region where they are sold.
3. Voltage Label (Rear Panel) – A label located on the power supply indicates the AC power input for the unit. The label will read
100-240V AC, 50/60Hz, 1.4A.
4. Do not touch the PS-2.1 with wet hands. Do not handle the PS-2.1 or power cord when your hands are wet or damp. If water or any
other liquid enters the PS-2.1 cabinet, take the PS-2.1 to qualified service personnel for inspection.
5. Place the PS-2.1 in a well, ventilated location. Take special care to provide plenty of ventilation on all sides of the PS-2.1 especially
when it is placed in an audio rack. If ventilation is blocked, the PS-2.1 may over heat and malfunction. Do not expose the PS-2.1 to
direct sun light or heating units as the PS-2.1 internal components temperature may rise and shorten the life of the components.
Avoid damp and dusty environments.
6. Care – From time to time you should wipe off the front and side panels and the cabinet with a dry soft cloth. Do not use rough
material, thinners, alcohol or other chemical solvents or cloths since this may damage the finish or remove the panel lettering.
7. Class II wiring required.
8. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for damages caused to persons, things or data due to an improper or missing ground
