ATTENTION : RISQUEDECHOC ELECTRIQUE- NE PASOUVRIR
WARNING : TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT EXPOSE THIS EQU IPM ENT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE
The above symbols are international electronic product warning signs. The triangle symbol with lightning pattern is used to remind the user that there is a “dangerous voltage” in the power amplifier, which may lead to electric shock. The triangle symbol with an exclamation mark is used to remind the user to pay attention to and follow important operation and maintenance (repair) instructions in the manual.
Such marks are used to warn the user that there are no user repairable parts in the power amplifier Do not open the power amplifier without authorization, and do not carry out any maintenance on the power amplifier without authorization. In case of maintenance and repair, please consult the relevant qualified professionals. If you open the equipment chassis without authorization, the warranty terms will be invalid. The power amplifier is strictly prohibited to be exposed to rain and moisture. In case of liquid infiltration, shut down the equipment immediately and return it back to the agent for maintenance; in case of a thunderstorm, disconnect the power supply to prevent the equipment from being damaged.

Safety Instructions
Please pay attention to the safety instructions here for users who use equipment with the power cord!
Warning : This equipment must be connected to a power socket with grounding protection! The cables in the power cord are distinguished by the following colors:
Yellow-green-ground wire
Blue-neutral wire
Brown – live wire
If the cable color is inconsistent with that of the terminal in the power socket to be connected, please follow the following steps:

• Connect the yellow-green cable to the terminal marked with E, or grounding symbol, or the green or yellow-green terminal in the power socket;
• Connect the blue cable to the terminal marked with N or the black terminal in the power socket;
• Connect the brown cable to the terminal marked with L or the red terminal in the power socket. Depending on the power supply at the installation site, the equipment may require different power cords or connectors. If you need to replace the connector, please consult the relevant qualified professionals and refer to the relevant information in the table below. The yellow-green cable must be connected to the equipment chassis.
