1.1 Safety Instructions

Read the instructions before using the device. Keep the instructions for future reference.

• Use only accessories specified or supplied by the manufacturer (such as power adapter, battery, etc.).
• Before installing or operating the equipment, read the electrical safety information on the packaging.
• To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose the device to rain or humidity.
• Do not cover ventilation openings with objects such as newspapers, tablecloths, curtains, etc., to allow proper ventilation.
• Do not expose the equipment to dripping or splashing water and do not place objects containing water, such as vases, on the device.
• The symbol ⚡ indicates the risk of electric shock.
• To avoid damage and injury, securely fix the equipment to the floor/wall according to the installation instructions.
• Risk of battery explosion if not replaced correctly. Replace the battery only with a battery of the same type or equivalent.
• Do not expose the battery (the battery or batteries or battery pack) to excessive heat, such as direct sunlight, fire, or similar.
• Excessive earphone or headphone volume can cause hearing damage. Listening to music at high volume for long periods can cause hearing damage.
• To reduce the risk of hearing damage, lower the volume to a safe and adequate level and reduce the duration of listening at high volume.
• The power plug or coupler is used as a disconnecting device and must be easily accessible. When not in use and during transport, handle the power cord with care, e.g., tie the power cord with a tie or similar. Keep it away from sharp edges or similar objects that can damage the cord. Before reuse, check that the cord is not damaged. When all indicator lights are off, the device is completely disconnected from the power supply.
• The battery must be disposed of in accordance with environmental regulations.
• Do not place open flames, such as lit candles, on the appliance. To prevent the spread of fire, always keep candles or open flames away from the appliance.
• The symbol next to this indicates that this is a Class II electrical device or with double insulation. It is designed so that it does not require a safety connection to earth.

Precautions

• Do not open the device casing. This will void the warranty. It is dangerous to touch the inside of the device due to high voltage and possible electrical risk. For service, contact only qualified service personnel.
• When connecting cables, ensure the device is disconnected from the main power supply. Wait a few seconds before moving the receiver or disconnecting other equipment.
• Use only approved extension cords with cables compatible with the electrical consumption of the installed equipment. Ensure the power supply matches the voltage and amperage indicated on the back of the device.

10.0 USER INFORMATION

pursuant to art. 13 of legislative decree 25 July 2005, n. 15 "Implementation of Directives 2002/95/CE, 2002/96/CE and 2003/108/CE, relating to the reduction of the use of hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment, as well as waste disposal"

The crossed-out wheelie bin symbol shown on the equipment indicates that the product, at the end of its useful life, must be collected separately from other waste. The user must therefore deliver the equipment at the end of its useful life to the appropriate collection centers for differentiated collection of electronic and electrotechnical waste, or return it to the retailer when purchasing a new equipment of equivalent type, on a one-for-one basis. Proper differentiated collection for the subsequent disposal of the discarded equipment for recycling, treatment, and environmentally compatible disposal contributes to avoiding possible negative effects on the environment and health and promotes the recycling of the materials of which the equipment is composed. Abusive disposal of the product by the user entails the application of administrative sanctions referred to in legislative decree no. 22/1997" (Article 50 and following of legislative decree no. 22/1997).

End-of-life treatment of electrical or electronic equipment (Applicable in all European Union countries and in those with separate collection systems)

Recycling of materials helps conserve natural resources.
