VERY IMPORTANT  
Please read this entire manual before connecting this unit to your system  
For optimum performance:  
·
·
The crossfader is a user replaceable item and subject to wear. Excessive force can wear out the fader quickly. This is not a  
warranted item.  
Never use spray cleaners on the slide controls. Residues cause excessive dirt build-up and this will void your warranty. In normal  
use slide controls can last for many years. If they malfunction (usually because of a dirty or dusty environment) consult a  
professional technician.  
·
·
Always make sure that AC power is OFF while making any connections.  
Use appropriate cables throughout your system. Do not use excessively long cables (i.e. over 50ft/14m) Be sure plugs and jacks  
are tightly mated. Loose connections can cause hum, noise or intermittents that could easily damage your speakers. Make the  
input and output connections with readily available low-capacitance stereo cables. Quality cable makes a big difference in audio  
fidelity and punch. See your Numark dealer or an electronics or audio specialist store if you are not sure which cables to get.  
·
·
Never attempt to make any adjustments or repairs other than those described in this manual. Take the unit to your dealer or to an  
authorized Numark Service Center.  
ALWAYS remember: “TURN AMPS ON LAST AND OFF FIRST”. Begin with master faders or volume controls on minimum  
and the amplifier gain/input control(s) down. Wait 8 to 10 seconds before turning up the volume. This prevents transients which  
may cause severe speaker damage.  
·
·
Use restraint when operating controls. Try to move them slowly. Rapid adjustments could damage speakers due to amplifier  
clipping.  
Avoid amplifier “clipping” at all costs: this occurs when the red LEDs (usually on the front panel of most professional power  
amplifiers) start flashing. “Clipping” is when the power amplifier is distorting and working beyond it’s limits. Amplifier  
distortion is THE major cause of speaker failure.  
·
To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose the unit to rain or moisture. Never place cans of beer, soda, glasses of water or  
anything wet on top of the unit!
