SAFETY INFORMATION
CAUTION: PLEASE READ THE INSTRUCTIONS GIVEN IN THIS MANUAL
AND THOSE MARKED ON THE UNIT. KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR
FUTURE REFERENCE. PLEASE HEED ALL WARNINGS AND FOLLOW ALL
INSTRUCTIONS.
This unit has been designed and manufactured to assure personal
safety. Improper use can result in electric shock or fire hazard. The
safeguards incorporated in this unit will protect you if you observe the
following procedures for installation, use, and servicing. This unit does
not contain any parts that can be repaired by the user.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Read the instructions.
• Heed all warnings.
• Follow all instructions.
• The audio input jacks and mini-USB charging port on VG1 speaker
are IP67 rated: dustproof, and waterproof for up to 3 feet for up to 30
minutes.
ENGLISH
• Never submerge VG1 unit while audio jacks or mini-USB ports
are connected.
• When using the unit outdoors it is recommended to operate
on battery power only. The AC adapter is designed for indoor
applications only.
• Clean only with a dry cloth.
• Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the
manufacturers instructions.
• Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers,
stoves, or other devices (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
• Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug. A polarized
plug has two blades with one wider than the other. The wide blade is
provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit your outlet,
consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet. - This
applies to 110 volt markets only.
• Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly
at the plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where it exits
the unit.
• Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
• Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is
required when the unit has been damaged in any way, such as the
power supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or
objects have fallen into the unit, the power supply has been exposed
to rain or moisture, does not operate, or has been dropped.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an
equilateral triangle, alerts the user to the presence of
un-insulated “dangerous voltage” within the product’s
enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to
constitute a risk of electric shock.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle
alerts the user to the presence of important operating
and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the
literature accompanying the appliance.
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO
NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR MOISTURE. VOLTAGES ARE
PRESENT INSIDE THE ENCLOSURE. DO NOT OPEN THE ENCLOSURE.
REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED PERSONNEL ONLY.
VG1 uses a 3.7 volt Lithium-Ion rechargeable battery for DC operation.
Please review the following safety instructions before use. Failure to
read and follow the instructions below may result in fire, personal
injury, and damage to property if charged or used improperly. Please
note that the battery must be fully charged prior to its initial use.
LI-ION BATTERIES SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Please observe the following precautions when using or handling
the battery.
• Do not dispose in fire or expose to high temperature.
• Do not under any circumstances insert the battery with the positive
and negative poles reversed.
• Do not directly connect the battery to power outlets or 12 volt
automotive ports.
• Do not connect the positive terminal with the negative terminal with
metals such as wire, etc. Also, do not store or carry the battery with
metal necklaces, etc.
• Do not disassemble or modify the battery. The battery contains safety
and protective devices which, if damaged, may cause the battery to
generate heat, explode or ignite.
• Do not directly solder the battery.
• The battery contains a chemical liquid. If this liquid comes in contact
with the eyes, this may lead to loss of sight. Without rubbing the
eyes, immediately flush them with clean water for at least 15
minutes and then consult a doctor.
• Do not use the battery if it shows signs of any leakage, a change
of color or shape, or any other changes in appearance, an unusual
smell, or feels hot.
• Do not wet the battery or place it in water or sea water. This may
lead to the battery generating heat or rusting.
• Do not remove or damage the coating tube. This makes it easy
for the battery to short-circuit and may cause leakage or heat
generation.
• At all times, store the battery out of reach of small children.
• If the battery is rusted, generating heat, or shows any other abnormal
signs at the time of purchase, take it to the point of purchase without
using it.
• When not using the battery, or not using the unit for a prolonged
period, remove the battery from the unit and store it in a dry place
between the temperatures of -20 degrees C (-4 degrees F) and +35
degrees C (95 degrees F). This prevents leakage, rust, and decreased
battery performance and service life.
• Do not place the battery in direct sunlight, in hot cars, in front of
stoves or other hot places. This may lead to leakage or explosion,
and may deteriorate the performance and life expectancy.
• Only the battery provided with the device, or a compatible
replacement battery purchased from Soundcast, LLC should be used
in this device. Do not use this battery in any other device.
• When charging the battery, use only the built-in charger provided
in this device. Do not attempt to charge the battery by any other
means, or using any other device. Failure to do so may cause the
battery to become hot, rupture, or ignite and cause serious injury.
• The temperature range over which the battery can be charged is 0°C
(+32°F) to +45°C (+113°F). The built-in charger in this device will
not charge the battery outside of this range. Charging the battery at
temperatures outside of this range may cause the battery to become
hot or to break, and may also harm the performance of the battery or
reduce its life expectancy.
• The temperature range over which the battery can be used is
-20°C (-4°F) to +50°C (+122°F). Use of the battery outside of this
temperature range may damage the performance of the battery or
may reduce its life expectancy.
