WARNING: READ THIS FIRST!
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Use in countries other than the U.S.A. may require the use of a different line cord or attachment plug, or both. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, refer servicing to qualified service personnel. To reduce risk of fire or electric shock do not expose this product to rain or moisture.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This product must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break down, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current, reducing the risk of electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord having an equip- ment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
DANGER
Improper connection of equipment grounding conductor can result in the risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if you are in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with this product — if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified technician.
CAUTION
If the Morpheus (model number 9053), is rack mounted, a standard 19-inch open frame rack must be used.
USER-MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
1.Morpheus should be kept clean and dust free. Periodically wipe the unit with a clean, lint free cloth. Do not use solvents or cleaners.
2.There are no user lubrication or adjustment requirements.
3.Refer all other servicing to qualified service personnel.
INSTRUCTIONS PERTAINING TO A RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS
WARNING; When using electric products, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:
1.Read all instructions before using Morpheus.
2.To reduce the risk of injury, close supervision is necessary when Morpheus is used near children.
3.Do not use Morpheus near water — for example near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, in a wet basement, on a wet bar, or near or in a swimming pool.
In this document, whenever the word “Morpheus” is mentioned we are referring to the Morpheus Synthesizer by E-mu Systems, Inc.
This symbol is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.
This symbol is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated dangerous voltage within the product's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk o electric shock to persons.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
4.Morpheus should be situated so that its location or position does not interfere with its proper ventilation.
5.Morpheus should be located away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, fireplaces, stoves, or ovens.
6.Morpheus should only be connected to a power supply of the type described in the operating instructions and as marked on the product.
7.This product, in combination with an amplifier, headphones, and speakers, may be capable of producing sound levels that could cause full or partial hearing loss or damaged equipment. Do not operate for long periods of time at high volume levels or at a level that is uncomfortable. Additionally, care must be taken when programming any of the filters contained herein using extreme operating parameters. This action could also produce signals which result in unacceptable high sound levels as noted previously. If you experience any hearing loss or ringing of the ears consult your physician.
8.Morpheus may be equipped with a polarized line plug (one blade wider that the other). This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert this plug into the outlet, do not defeat the safety purpose of the plug. Contact an electrician to replace your obsolete outlet.
9.The power supply cord of Morpheus should be unplugged from the outlet when left unused for a long period of time.
10.Care should be taken so that objects do not fall and liquids are not spilled into the enclosure of Morpheus through openings.
11.The product should be serviced by qualified service personnel when:
A.The power supply cord has been damaged; or
B.Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled into the product; or
C.The product has been exposed to rain; or
D.The product does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a
marked |
change in performance; or |
E.The product has been dropped or the enclosure damaged.
12.All servicing should be referred to qualified service personnel.
