INSTRUCTION MANUAL

MEGAPHONE ER-3215

2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION

A handheld 15 W megaphone with removable microphone.

Can be used as a shoulder-type megaphone when the

microphone is detached.

Handle and microphone with anti-bacteria treatment improve

hygiene and safety during use.

3. HANDLING PRECAUTIONS

• The ER-3215 megaphone is not waterproof.

Avoid exposure to rain or environments where it may be

splashed by water or other liquids.

• Immediately contact your TOA dealer if the following

irregularities should occur. To avoid unit failure, make no

further attempt to use the unit in these conditions.

· Smoke coming from the unit or a strange smell detected.

· Water or other foreign objects get inside the unit.

· No sound heard (after checking to be sure that the batteries

are loaded in correct orientation, and satisfactorily charged).

• Avoid storing the unit in humid or dusty locations, in locations

exposed to direct sunlight, near heaters, or exposed to sooty

smoke, as these conditions may result in unit failure.

• When batteries are left installed in the megaphone for extended

periods of time, be sure to check them periodically for charge

and leakage.

• Do not use the unit for extended periods of time with a distorted

sound output. This could cause the inner parts to become hot

and possibly result in unit failure.

• Noise may be produced when a mobile phone is used near the

unit. However, this is not a failure. Use the mobile phone as far

as possible from the unit.

• Use a tightly wrung-out damp cloth to clean the unit. If the unit

becomes extremely dirty, use a cloth moistened in a neutral

detergent and tightly wrung-out. Never use volatile liquids such

as benzene, thinner, or alcohol to clean the unit, as these may

deform or discolor its case.

4. SPECIFICATIONS

Battery life estimates assume 30 minutes of continuous use

per day.

Audible range estimates assume use on a relatively quiet

street using new batteries and will vary depending on

remaining battery capacity, surrounding noise, wind direction,

obstacles and other environmental conditions.
