Safety Precautions - Fender Passport P80 Instrucciones De Funcionamiento

9. Power lines
Locate any outdoor antenna/aerial away from power lines.
10. Non-use periods
If the unit has a stand-by function, a small amount of current will continue to
flow into the equipment in this mode. Unplug the power cord of the appliance
from the outlet if left unused for a long period of time.
11. Servicing
You should not attempt to service the appliance beyond that described in this
handbook. All other servicing should be referred to qualified service personnel.
12. Damage requiring service
The appliance should be serviced by qualified service personnel when:
A. the power-supply cord or the plug has been damaged, or
B. objects have fallen, or liquid has spilled into the appliance, or
C. the appliance has been exposed to rain, or
D. the appliance does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a
marked change in performance, or
E. the appliance has been dropped or the enclosure damaged.
Safety compliance
This product has been designed to meet the IEC 60065 international; C22.2 No
1; UL813 electrical safety standards in addition to applicable EMC standards.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

The Fender Passport sound system is supplied
with a detachable power cable with an IEC female
connector and a male AC connector. Depending
on the territory in which the Passport system is
purchased, the power cable will be supplied with one of a
number of male AC connectors to accommodate the different
safety and code requirements of specific countries. All AC
cables supplied with Passport products are three pin
grounded types.
Under no circumstances should the ground (earth) pin be
disconnected or removed.
Your Passport System features a Switch-Mode-Power-Supply
designed to operate on any AC voltage and line frequency to
convert AC power with maximum efficiency.
If you are not sure of the wiring codes & colors, AC
grounding, or correct procedures for connection, consult
a qualified technician.
WARNING
Under no circumstances should the ground pin on
the Passport or on any of your electrical
equipment be lifted. It is possible that under
certain circumstances a combination of different
types of ungrounded equipment can create a life threatening
shock hazard. Microphones have metal cases and are
connected through the mic cable to the mixer's chassis. Your
Passport mixer may be correctly grounded if the building's
wiring is to code and the ground pin on the AC plug is properly
connected. However if for any reason external AC powered
equipment with ungrounded AC connections are used in
conjunction with the Passport system (e.g. an ungrounded
music amplifier), there may be a difference in potential to the
microphone case. With this combination a performer holding
a (grounded) microphone coming into contact with an
ungrounded item of powered equipment may be subject to
dangerous electrical shocks.
By following the correct procedures and safety precautions,
risks of severe shock hazard can be minimized. Always check
the AC connection and particularly the voltage between the
microphone and any other AC equipment. Best of all, avoid
operating the system in conjunction with ungrounded or
improperly grounded electrical equipment.
TRANSPORTATION LATCHES
To open and close your Passport system, simply follow these
guidelines:

MIC / LINE - CONTROLS
C. LEVEL – Adjusts the volume level of the individual
channel. Rotating the knob clockwise increases the
respective channel's contribution to the "Main Out" mix,
while rotating it counterclockwise decreases the volume.
Adjust this control after the Passport's master output level
volume has been set.
D. VIP (CHANNEL 1 ONLY) – The VIP or Vocal Input Priority
control adjusts the level at which the volume of all other
channels are automatically reduced in favor of the source
attached to the Mic/Line Input 1. This unique feature permits
a user to speak while other inputs (such as background music)
continue at temporarily reduced levels. The VIP circuit is "pre-
volume control" which means it is effective regardless of level
control setting of channel one.
Adjust this control while speaking into a microphone on
channel 1, with other program material input through another
channel. Depending on the duration and level of the signal
being input to Mic/Line 1 and the position of the control, the
VIP circuit will trigger a reduction in level of all the other
channels. The original levels will be automatically restored
when there is no signal present on channel 1. In typical use,
the circuit will return normal levels in about 4 seconds. With
the level set at a higher or a stronger signal, normal levels will
be restored after approximately 6 seconds. The VIP circuit has
an intentionally slow release time which prevents interruptions
when a speaker pauses for thought or effect. Care should be
taken to avoid the VIP triggering on sound from the main
speakers. At high settings, the microphone may "hear" the
main system speakers and trigger a reduction in level. When
not using the VIP feature, be sure to turn the control
completely counterclockwise.

1. Place your finger tip under the
safety latch {A} and gently lift.
When the safety latch has dis-
engaged, lift both main latches {B}
clear on each speaker before
attempting to remove the speaker.
2. To replace, position each
speaker on the tower foot and
bring the speaker in to close the
engagement with the tower and
latches. Position the latch hooks
over the speaker notch and close
the latches. The 4 latches will
automatically engage.
