SAFETY GUIDELINES

This speaker is a sophisticated piece of electronic equipment. To guarantee a smooth operation, it is important to follow all instructions and guidelines in this manual. AVANTE is not responsible for injury and/or damages resulting from the misuse of this speaker due to the disregard of the information printed in this manual. Only qualified and/or certified personnel should perform the installation of this speaker and all included and/or optional rigging accessories. Only the original included and/or optional rigging parts and accessories for this speaker should be used for proper installation. Any modifications to the speaker, included and/or optional rigging parts and accessories will void the original manufactures warranty and increase the risk of damage and/or personal injury.

PROTECTION CLASS 1 - SPEAKER MUST BE PROPERLY GROUNDED

TO REDUCE RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE ANY COVER. THERE ARE NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE THIS SPEAKER. DO NOT ATTEMPT ANY REPAIRS YOURSELF; DOING SO WILL VOID YOUR MANUFACTURES WARRANTY. DAMAGES RESULTING FROM MODIFICATIONS TO THIS SPEAKER AND/OR THE DISREGARD OF SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND GUIDELINES IN THIS MANUAL VOID THE MANUFACTURES WARRANTY AND ARE NOT SUBJECT TO ANY WARRANTY CLAIMS AND/OR REPAIRS. NEVER OPEN THIS SPEAKER WHILE IN USE! UNPLUG POWER BEFORE SERVICING SPEAKER! KEEP FLAMMABLE MATERIALS AWAY FROM SPEAKER!

DRY LOCATIONS USE ONLY! DO NOT EXPOSE SPEAKER TO RAIN AND/OR MOISTURE! DO NOT SPILL WATER AND/OR LIQUIDS ON OR INTO THE SPEAKER!

This speaker is for PROFESSIONAL USE ONLY! Read all INSTRUCTIONS and follow all WARNINGS!

DO NOT use speaker near wet and/or damp locations. Speaker must be kept away from direct contact with liquids and must not be exposed to water/liquid dripping or splashing.

DO NOT attempt installation and/or operation without knowledge how to do so. Consult a professional sound equipment installer for proper and safe speaker installation. ONLY the original included, and/or optional rigging parts and accessories listed in this manual should be used for proper installation and use.

DO NOT expose any part of the speaker to open flame or smoke, or position speaker close to any flammable materials while operating. Be sure to install this speaker in an area that will allow proper ventilation. Allow approximately 6 inches (152mm) behind the speaker cabinet for proper cooling. The speaker contains an internal power amplifier that produces heat during use. Keep speaker away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appliances (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

DO NOT operate speaker if power cord is frayed, crimped, damaged, and/or if any of the power cord connectors are damaged and do not insert into the speaker securely with ease. NEVER force a power cord connector into the speaker. If the power cord or any of its connectors are damaged, replace it immediately with a new one of similar power rating.

DO NOT disassemble speaker, there are NO user serviceable parts inside. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the speaker has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled and/or objects have fallen into the speaker, the speaker has been exposed to rain and/or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

DO NOT defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type 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 or the third prong is provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

SAFETY GUIDELINES

POWER SOURCES: This product must be connected to a power supply only of the type described in these operating instructions, or as marked on the unit. This product is Country Specific.

IMPORTANT!

INSTALLATION - RIGGING AND SUSPENSION

DO NOT INSTALL SPEAKERS IF YOU ARE NOT QUALIFIED TO DO SO! INSTALLATION BY QUALIFIED TECHNICIANS ONLY!

INSTALLATIONS SHOULD BE CHECKED BY A QUALIFIED PERSON ONCE A YEAR!

FLAMMABLE MATERIAL WARNING

Keep speaker a minimum of 5.0 feet (1.5m) away from flammable materials and/or pyrotechnics.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

A qualified electrician should complete all electrical connections and/or installations.

A MAXIMUM OF 8 IMPERIO speakers may be suspended from a SMALL FLYBAR.

A MAXIMUM OF 2 IMPERIO Sub speakers may be suspended from a LARGE FLYBAR, plus A MAXIMUM OF 4 IMPERIO speakers may be suspended from a LARGE FLYBAR attached to the bottom of the above mentioned 2 suspended IMPERIO SUB speakers.

USE CAUTION WHEN POWER LINKING MULTIPLE SPEAKERS AS THE POWER CONSUMPTION OF OTHER SPEAKER MODELS MAY EXCEED THE MAX POWER OUTPUT ON THIS SPEAKER. CHECK SILK SCREEN ON SPEAKER FOR MAX AMPS.

WARNING! The safety and suitability of any lifting equipment, installation location/platform, anchoring/rigging/mounting method, hardware, and electrical installation is the sole responsibility of the installer.

Install speaker(s), all speaker accessories, and all anchoring/rigging/mounting hardware following all local, national, and country commercial, electrical, and construction codes and regulations.

Consult a professional equipment installer to determine if the metal truss/structure or surface is properly certified to safely support the combined weight of the speakers(s), clamps, cables, and all rigging hardware and accessories before rigging/mounting a single speaker or multiple interconnected speakers to any metal truss/structure.

Carefully consider item selection for rigging in unusual environmental conditions as rigging and suspension equipment could be subject to wear, misuse, overloading, corrosion, deformation, alteration, and other factors that may reduce their capacity rating.

Visually inspect metal truss/structure to ensure it does not flex and/or become deformed due to the weight of the speaker(s). Damage caused to speaker(s) through mechanical stress is not covered by warranty.

Install speakers(s) in areas outside walking paths, seating areas, or away from areas were unauthorized personnel might reach the speaker(s) by hand. Access under work area must be blocked.

IMPORTANT!

INSTALLATION - RIGGING AND SUSPENSION

OVERHEAD RIGGING

Overhead rigging requires extensive experience, including amongst others, calculating working load limits, installation material being used, and periodic safety inspection of all installation material and the speaker. If you lack these qualifications, do not attempt the installation yourself. Improper installation can result in bodily injury and property damage. Regardless of local installation conditions, the following guidelines apply to all overhead rigging installations:

NEVER stand directly below the speaker(s) when rigging, removing or servicing.

To limit swinging or tipping the load when lifting the Imperio Sub speaker(s) and/or Imperio speaker(s) into position when stacking, rigging, and/or suspending them using the available Imperio Flybar(s), determine the center of gravity of the overall assembly, then rig or suspend the load through a lifting point straight above the center of gravity. If using multiple rigging/anchor points and a single lifting point, ensure that all suspension load angles used are symmetrical about the lifting point with respect to the center of gravity so that load tensions are balanced between ropes, wires, chains, or cables.

Structural members, such as a truss system, must always be used to attach or suspend loads from a ceiling or to a wall. Never use a ceiling or wall surface itself to attach or suspend external loads, the catastrophic failure of which can or likely will result in potential structural/property damage, injury, or death.

Inspect/verify the structural integrity of the structural member used to suspend, hang, or support external loads by looking for hidden structural weaknesses.

Avoid using threaded fasteners in wooden structural members for suspending overhead loads (nails, screws, lag bolts, etc.). Threaded fasteners are inherently unreliable for suspending overhead loads, due in part to possible hidden structural weaknesses in the wood (cracks, knots, etc.).

Suspension points provided by the installation owner or third-party may not be adequate to lift or suspend the intended overhead loads.

You must consult an expert, such as a structural engineer or rigging specialist, if there is even the slightest question or doubt about the structural integrity of any part of the installation.

Take all appropriate precautions and safety measures when placing equipment in potentially dangerous locations, especially where public safety is a concern.
