users to the existence of important instructions in the user manual relating to
the use and maintenance of the device.
11. Never insert an object into the
vents on the device. It may come into
contact with high-voltage components
or cause a short circuit which may lead
to fire or electric shock. Never get
liquid on the device.
12. Never try to repair this device
yourself; opening the device may
expose you to high-voltages and other
risks. For any maintenance or repairs,
contact a qualified professional.
13. When it's necessary to replace
components, make sure the technician
uses the components specified by
the manufacturer or ones which have
exactly the same characteristics as
the original. Components which aren't
compliant may cause a fire, an electric
shock or other accidents.
14. After any repairs or an intervention
on the device, ask the technician to
test the equipment in order to check
that the product works correctly and
is safe.
15. The device must not be mounted to
a wall or ceiling unless intended by the
manufacturer.
16. In order to avoid damaging your
hearing, do not listen to speakers at
high volumes for extended periods of
time.
Listening to speakers at high
volumes can cause damage to the
user's ears and may lead to hearing
problems (temporary or permanent
deafness, buzzing in the ears, tinnitus,
hyperacusis).
Exposure to excessive volumes (over
85dB) for more than one hour can
cause irreparable damage to your
hearing.
17. Your loudspeakers use a tweeter
with an inverted dome made from
pure beryllium, a substance that is
harmless in solid form. However,
given its nature, certain precautions
should be taken to avoid exposure to
unnecessary risks:
• The beryllium dome must never
come into contact with abrasive
materials.
• If the beryllium dome is damaged in
any way, use the protective adhesive
strip supplied to cover the entire
surface area of the dome, as soon as
possible. You will find the adhesive
strip in the plastic packet containing
the leaflet for the tweeter with an
inverted dome made from pure
beryllium. Contact the retailer to have
the tweeter dismantled and replaced
by trained personnel at the distributor.
• If the dome is broken, any beryllium
particles should be carefully collected
using sticky tape and then placed in
a hermetically sealed plastic bag and
sent back to the retailer along with the
loudspeaker.

the safe use manual in the box.
