1) Read these instructions.
2) Follow all instructions
3) Keep these instructions
4) Heed all warnings
5)
Do not use the MATRIX-200 near water. Be
extra cautious when moving the system
during rain or while transporting the system
over wet surfaces as water might splash on to
the amplifier. To reduce the risk of fire or
electric shock, do not expose the system to
rain or moisture.
6)
Clean only with dry cloth.
7)
Do not block any ventilation openings. Use
in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions.
8) Do not use near heat sources such as
radiators, stoves or other devices that may
produce heat.
9) Do not defeat the safety purpose of the
polarization 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 is provided for your
safety. If the provided plug does not fit your
outlet, consult an electrician for replacement
of the obsolete outlet.
10)
Protect the power cord from being walked on
or pinched, particularly at the plug and at the
point where it exits the MA
TRIX-200 amplifier
.
11) Only use attachments / accessories
recommended by B-52 Pro-Audio.
12) Use caution when transporting the system to
avoid injury from tip-over.
13) Unplug the MATRIX-200 during lightning
storms or when not in use.
14) Refer all servicing to qualified personnel.
Servicing is required when the MATRIX-200
has been damaged in any way, such as the
power-cord or plug is damaged, liquid has
been spilled into the cabinets, the unit has
been exposed to moisture or rain, does not
operate normally, or has been dropped.
15) The MATRIX-200 is not intended for outdoor
fixed installations or in high moisture areas.
Moisture can damage the speakers and can
cause corrosion of electrical contacts. Keep
speakers out of extended or intense direct
sunlight.
The speaker surfaces may fade and
be damaged by long-term exposure to intense
ultra-violent light.
