INTRODUCTION
GETTING STARTED
1. Check the AC voltage before connecting the plug.
This product is equipped with a 3-wire grounding
type plug; this is a safety feature and should not
be defeated. Proper grounding must be practiced
to prevent electrical shock to the operator, the
microphone user, and any musicians whose in-
struments are wired to this unit. Choose the main
supply for the sound system with care, and do
not share sockets or earthing with light dimmers.
2. Position the mixer where the sound can be heard
clearly; preferably with the audience.
3. Run audio cables separately from dimmer wir-
ing, using balanced lines wherever possible. If
necessary, cross audio and lighting cables at
right angles to minimize the possibility of inter-
ference. Keep unbalanced cabling as short as
possible.
4. Check your cables regularly and label each
end for easy identification.
5. Before switching on the main power, keep all the
output faders all the way down to prevent dam-
age or excessive noise caused by bad level ad-
justment, wrong wiring, defective cables,or bad
connections.
6. Always turn on the MM1705a mixer before the
power amplifier; turn off the MM1705a mixer after
turning off the amplifier.
7. Always turn off the power before connecting or
disconnecting the unit.
8. Never use solvents to clean the unit. Clean with
a soft, dry cloth.
