Important Safety Instructions
Terminals marked with this symbol carry an electrical current of sufficient
magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock. Use only high-quality
professional speaker cables with ¼” TS or twist-locking plugs pre-installed.
All other installations or modifications should be performed only by qualified
personnel. This symbol, wherever it appears, alerts you to the presence of
uninsulated dangerous voltage inside the enclosure – voltage that may be
sufficient to constitute a risk of shock. This symbol, wherever it appears,
alerts you to important operating and maintenance instructions in the
accompanying literature. Please read the manual.
Caution
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove the top cover (or the rear
section). No user-serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to qualified
personnel. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this
appliance to rain and moisture. The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping
or splashing liquids and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall
be placed on the apparatus. These service instructions are for use by
qualified service personnel only. To reduce the risk of electric shock do not
perform any servicing other than that contained in the operation instructions.
Repairs have to be performed by qualified service personnel.

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.

- The apparatus shall be connected to a MAINS socket outlet with a protective earthing connection.
- Where the MAINS plug or an appliance coupler is used as the disconnect device, the disconnect device shall remain readily operable.
- Correct disposal of this product: This symbol indicates that this product must not be disposed of with household waste, according to the WEEE Directive (2012/19/EU) and your national law. This product should be taken to a collection center licensed for the recycling of waste electrical and electronic equipment (EEE). The mishandling of this type of waste could have a possible negative impact on the environment and human health due to potentially hazardous substances that are generally associated with EEE. At the same time, your cooperation in the correct disposal of this product will contribute to the efficient use of natural resources. For more information about where you can take your waste equipment for recycling, please contact your local city office, or your household waste collection service.
- Do not install in a confined space, such as a bookcase or similar unit.
- Do not place naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, on the apparatus.
- Please keep the environmental aspects of battery disposal in mind. Batteries must be disposed of at a battery collection point.
- This apparatus may be used in tropical and moderate climates up to 45°C.
Controls
- The VIRTUAL 4 x 12″ CAB speaker simulation can be switched on and off with the SIMULATOR ON/OFF switch.
- When activated, the GND LIFT breaks the ground connection between input and output. Depending on the grounding of the connected equipment, this can eliminate hum or ground loops.
- OUTPUT TO MIXER is the GI100’s balanced, mic-level output. Use a high-quality, balanced XLR (microphone) cable to connect the ULTRA-G to a console.
- BATTERY COMPARTMENT. To install or replace the 9 V battery, remove the screw and lift the lid.
- The CLIP LED lights up when the input signal level is too high.
- The two -20 dB PAD switches noticeably increase the operating range of the ULTRA-G, allowing it to accept anything from the low-level signal of a high-impedance microphone or guitar to the loudspeaker output of a guitar amp. These switches have repeatedly proven themselves in the BEHRINGER ULTRA-DI DI100. Pressing both switches results in a gain reduction of 40 dB.
- INPUT. Use this ¼” mono jack to connect the signal source, e.g. your guitar, with a high-quality standard instrument cable.
- The DIRECT LINK TO CABINET is a direct output of the input signal, allowing you for example to simultaneously run your instrument through the GI100 and complete your normal signal path by connecting the DIRECT LINK to an amp or speaker cabinet.
