Avoid exposing the speakers to direct moisture. Keep speakers out of extended or intense direct sunlight. The driver suspension will prematurely dry out and finished surfaces may be degraded by long-term exposure to intense ultra-violet (UV) light. The CS1214 PA system can generate considerable energy. When placed on a slippery surface such as polished wood or linoleum, the speaker may move due to its acoustical energy output. Precautions should be taken to assure that the speaker does not fall off a stage or table on which it is placed. Stand Mounting Safety Precautions The CS1214 speakers contain a 36 mm receptacle cup to allow mounting on tripod stands or on a pole over subwoofers. When using stands or poles, be sure to observe the following precautions: · Check the stand or pole specification to be certain the device is designed to support the weight of the speaker. Observe all safety precautions specified by the manufacturer. · Always verify that the stand (or subwoofer/pole) is placed on a flat, level and stable surface and be sure to fully extend the legs of tripod type stands. Position the stand so that the legs do not present a trip hazard. · Route cables so that performers, production crew, and audience will not trip and topple the speakers over. · Inspect the stand (or pole and associated hardware) before each use and do not use equipment with worn, damaged or missing parts. · Do not attempt to place more than one CS1214 series speaker on a stand or pole. · Always be cautious in windy, outdoor conditions. It may be necessary to place additional weight (i. sandbags) on the base of the stand to improve stability. Avoid attaching banners or similar items to any part of a speaker system. Such attachments could act as a sail and topple the system...
