JBL EON206P Portable Speaker User Manual

Section 2: Precautions
The EON 206P PA system covered by this manual is not intended for use in high
moisture environments. Moisture can damage the speaker cone and surround and cause
corrosion of electrical contacts and metal parts. Avoid exposing the speakers to direct
moisture. Keep speakers out of extended or intense direct sunlight. The driver suspension
will prematurely dry out and nished surfaces may be degraded by long-term exposure
to intense ultra-violet (UV) light. The EON 206P PA system can generate considerable
energy. When placed on a slippery surface such as polished wood or linoleum, the
speaker may move due to its acoustical energy output. Precautions should be taken to
assure that the speaker does not fall off a stage or table on which it is placed.
Stand Mounting Safety Precautions
The EON 206P speakers contain a 36 mm receptacle cup to allow mounting on tripod stands or on a pole over
subwoofers. When using stands or poles, be sure to observe the following precautions:
• Check the stand or pole specication to be certain the device is designed to support the weight of the
speaker. Observe all safety precautions specied by the manufacturer.
• Always verify that the stand (or subwoofer/pole) is placed on a at, level and stable surface and
be sure to fully extend the legs of tripod type stands. Position the stand so that the legs do not
present a trip hazard.
• Route cables so that performers, production crew, and audience will not trip and topple the
speakers over.
• Inspect the stand (or pole and associated hardware) before each use and do not use equipment with
worn, damaged or missing parts.
• Do not attempt to place more than one EON 206P series speaker on a stand or pole.
• Always be cautious in windy, outdoor conditions. It may be necessary to place additional weight (i.e.
sandbags) on the base of the stand to improve stability. Avoid attaching banners or similar items to
any part of a speaker system. Such attachments could act as a sail and topple the system.
• Unless you are condent that you can handle the weight of the speaker, ask another person to help
you get it onto the tripod stand or pole.
Hearing Damage, Prolonged Exposure To Excessive SPL
The EON 206P system is capable of generating sound pressure levels (SPL) sufcient to cause permanent
hearing damage to performers, production crew and audience members. Caution should be taken to avoid
prolonged exposure to SPL in excess of 90 dB.
