Important Safety Instructions
0.1 Important Safety Instructions
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended
to alert the user to the presence of important operating and
maintenance (servicing) instructions in this manual.
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an equilateral
triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of
uninsulated “dangerous” voltage within the product’s enclosure that may
be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to humans.
CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT
REMOVE THE COVER. NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE. REFER
SERVICING TO QUALIFIED PERSONNEL.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not expose this
appliance to rain and moisture. The apparatus shall not be
exposed to dripping or splashing liquids and no object filled with
liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus.
CAUTION: 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 must be performed by qualified service personnel.
1. Read these instructions.
2. Keep these instructions.
3. Heed all warnings.
4. Follow all instructions.
5. Do not use this apparatus near water.
6. Clean only with dry a cloth.
7. Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in
accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
8. Do not install near any heat sources, such as radiators, heat registers,
stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
9. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or groundingtype 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 and 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.
10. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched,
particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and
the point where they exit from the apparatus.
11. Use only attachments/accessories specified by PreSonus.
12. Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or
table specified by the manufacturer or sold with
this apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution
when moving the cart/apparatus combination to
avoid injury from tip-over.
13. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or
when unused for long periods of time.
14. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in
any way, such as if a power-supply cord or plug is damaged; or
liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen, into the apparatus;
or if the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not
operate normally, or has been dropped. All PreSonus products in
the USA should be serviced at the PreSonus factory in Baton Rouge,
Louisiana. If your StudioLive requires a repair, contact techsupport@
presonus.com to arrange for a return-authorization number.
Customers outside the USA should contact their local distributor. Your
distributor’s contact information is available at www.presonus.com.
15. The apparatus shall be connected to a Mains power outlet
with a protective grounding/earthing connection.
16. Where the Mains plug or an appliance coupler
is used as the disconnect device, the disconnect
device shall remain readily operable.
