  • Page 4: Safety

    Suspending any object is potentially dangerous and should only be attempted by individuals who have a thorough knowledge of the techniques and regulations of suspending objects overhead. Electro-Voice strongly recommends that loudspeakers be suspended taking into account all current national, federal, state, and local laws and regulations. It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure all loudspeakers are safely installed in accordance with all such requirements.
  • Page 5: Precautions

    Precautions These Electro-Voice loudspeakers were designed for use in an environment with ambient temperatures between -20°C (-4°F) and +50°C (122°F). These Electro-Voice loudspeakers are not rated for continuous outdoor conditions. However, they may be exposed to occasional short-term rain, water, or high humidity.
