LtWARNING
Antes de instalar el altavoz es importante que lea estas instrucciones.

Your purchase of PIONEER equipment is only the beginning of your musical enjoyment. PIONEER and the Consumer Electronics Association
want you to
get the most oul of your equipment by using it at a safe sound level; a level that lets the sound come through clearly without annoying
blaring
or distortion _ and, most importantly, wilhout affecting your sensitive hearing.
Sound can
be deceiving. Over time your hearing "comfort level" adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds "normal" can actually be
loud and hannful to your hearing.
Set yourequipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establisb a safe level:
• Stan your volume control at a low setting.
• Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, wilhout distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
• Set the dial and leave it there.
• Taking a minute to
do this now will help to preserve hearing.
Used wisely, your new sound equipment can provide fun and enjoyment. Since hearing damage from loud noise is often undetectable until it is too late,
PIONEER and the Consumer Electronics Association recommend you avoid prolonged
eX(Xlsure to excessive noise. Under constant exposure such as
sustained listening, sound levels above 85 decibels can be dangerous without hearing protection. (For reference, a garbage disposal
or loud shouting al 3
feet away arc around 80
decibels; a food blender or gas lawn mower at 3 feet away are around 90 decibels.> The longer your exposure andlor higher Ihe
sound level, the greater the danger
of permanent hearing damage. Also, playing loud music or other sounds in a vehicle can hinder your ability to hear
traffic
or emergency vehicles. We recommend using low volume levels when driving so you can still hear sounds outside your vehicle. PIONEER disclaims
all liability for hearing loss. bodily injury
or property damage as a result of use or misuse of this product.
it CAUTION
To prevent damage to your speakers please observe the following caution, At high volume
levels
if the music sounds distorted or additional sounds are perceived lOwer the volume.
This may
be caused by eKcessive input to the speakers. The soond you are hearing could
be the speaker cone becoming out of contrOl or it may l>e llle voice coil actually coming into
contact
with llle magnetic assembly. Under these circumstances, i1 is prudent 10 lower the
volume to just below the point where lhese phenomena OCClK. If your amplifier has a gain
conl101 i1 would be advisable 10 lower this control slightly to prevent this from reoccurring. In
some cases. if there is an equalizer in the system, the bass conttOl on this unit could also
be readjusted to prevent this from happening. If higler volume or sound pressure levels (spl)
than those
which the speaker can reproduce are desired. it is recommended that additional
speakers be added to the system. By dotng so it is possible to gain slgmficant increases in
sound pressure levels. In some cases, you may double the perceived system output without
any deterioration
in sound quality. When ,nslalting the speakers, or after tnslalation make
sure
not to subject the diaphragms to direct shock (for ell:ample. dropping sharp-edged
objects onto them)
as the speakers may be damaged. Since this speaker is continuously
used being turned on full blast. temperature of the magnetic circuil rises, avo,d touching it
directly by hand and placing something near it. If it is heated, it may cause a bum.
deformation of or
damage to peripheral things. If this speaker is used as it is mounted on a
cabinet whose volume
is larger than tt1e recommended size or used alone in a free air. it will
not only be deteriorated in durability but also be out of order.
PIONEER
recommends that this speaker be used in conjunction with amplifiers
whose continuous (RMS) output Is lower than the nominal input power of this
speaker.
WARNING
Handling the cord on Ihis product or cords associated wilh accessories sold with the
product
will eKpose you to chemicals listed on proposition 65 known 10 tt1e State of
California and other governmental entities to
cause cancer and binh defect or other
reproductive harm.
Wash hands after handling.
it ATI'ENTION
Afin d'~viter d'endommager les haut-parleurs, observer les precautions suivantes. Si 1a
musique semble deformee ou si des parasites sonl per~us a volume eleve, baisser Ie volume.
CeB problemeB peu.ent /!tre eaUM!B par I'entree ell:celi8ive aUI haut-parleurs. LeB paraBites
peuvent etre dus a I'affolement du cane du haut·parleur ou a la bobine mobile venant en
contact avec I'ensemble magnt!tique. Dana ces ciroonstaoees. il eat prudent de baili8er Ie
volume A un niveau juste au-dessous du point ou ces phenom~nes se produisent. Si
I'amplificateur est muni d'uDe commande de gain, II est recommande de baisser cette
commande leg!rement afin d'empkher lei phenom~nes de se reproduire. DanB certains cas,
I'il y a un fgalileur dans Ie syst!me. on peut aussi ajuster la eommande des graves pour
empkher leB phenomenel! de lie produire. Si Ie volume ou Ie niveaux de preslion acoustique
(Ipl) Buperieurl l\ ceux que Ie haut-parleur peut reproduire sont deBirel, il est recommande
d'ajouter des haut-parleurll lIupplementairea au systeme. On peut ainai obtenir del
augmentations considerables de niveaux de prellion acoustique. Dans certains eRS, 00 peut
arriver 1 doubler la puissance per~ue du systeme ssns deterioration de la qualite sonore.
Installant les haut-parleurll ou aprh les avoir installes, veiller A ne pal endommager leurs
disphragmel (en laissant tomber deslus des objets coupants. par eJ:.emple) car i1a
pourraient ftre endommagfs, Quand ce haut-parleur est utililt! de ra~on continue 1I. plein
volume, la temperature de ses circuits magmHiques s'eleve, evitez donc de Ie toucher
directement de la main ou de placer del objets a proximite, S'il est chaud, iI pourrait
occasionner deB brO.lureB, une deformation ou des dligAts sur des objets voisins. Si Ie
haut-parleur est utilise tel quel, monte sur un coffrer dont Ie volume est plus grand que la
taille recommandee ou s'il est utilise 1I. I'air libre, sa durabilite sera amoindrie et iI risque
aussi de tomber en panne.
Alin d'eviler d'abimer Ie haut-parleur avec UDe ampllflcetion elevee, PIONEER
recommande d'utiliser des amplificateurs dont Ie niveau de puislance continue
(RMS) e.t inferieure 1\ la pui,.ance nominale du baut·parleur.
it PRECAUCION
Para evitar averia de sus allavoces. sfrvase obS9rvar las siguientes precauciones. Si la musica
se reproduce anormalmente 0 cuando se reciben sonidos adicionales, baje el volumen, Esto
puede
presentarse debido a la eKcesiva carga sobre lOs altavoces. EI sonido puede oirse
anomalmente si se descontrola el cono del altavoz 0 cuando la bobina m6vil se pone en
centaclo con el conjunto magnetico. En estas circunslancias. es necesario bajar el volumen
hasta el punto donde desaparezcan estos len6menos. Si su amplificador cuents con un conlrol
de ganancia. serfa mejor bajar ligeramente este control para evitar Que ocurran-Ios fen6menos
mencionados. En algunos casos, si el sistema esta provistn de un ecualizador, el control de
graves de eSIa unidad puede reajustsrse tambiim para evitar que ocuna dicho problema. 5i
desea lograr un volumen mas alto que el obtenido con el altavoz provisto, se recomienda ai'\adir
attavoces adicionales al sistema. Con esta adici6n, es posible aumentar considerablemante el
nivel
sonoro del sistema. En ciertos casos, usted podra duplicar la salida del sistema sin ningun
deterioro
en Ia calidad sonora. Cuando inslale los ahavoces, 0 despues da haberlos instalado,
cerciOrese
de que sus diafragmas no reciban golpes (por ejemplo, al dejar caer objelos
puntiagudos sobre ellos) ya Que podrian danarse. Ya Que este altavoz eSla siendo usado
continuamente encendido a lodo volumen, la temperalura del clrcuito magnetico aumenta, evile
tocario directamente con la mano 0 poniendo algo cerca de el. 5i se calentara, podrfa causar
quemaduras, deformaci6n 0 danos de las cosas alrededor del altavoz. Si se utiliza este altavoz
tal como
es instalado en un cabinete cuyo volumen es mayor que el del tamailo recomendado 0
si
se utiliza solo al aire libre, no solamente se deteriorani en duraciOn sino lambien se
estropeara.
Con el obleto de evlter el dafto debldo a Alveles exceslvos de en1rada, PIONEER
recomlenda utllizar este altavoz Junto con ampllflcedore, cuya potencla de .. lids
continua efectlva sel menor que la potencla nominal de entrada de .,te aUavoz.
