Mackie M2000 Manuel D’Utilisation

M-Series

1.  Read these instructions.  
2.  Keep these instructions.
3.  Heed all warnings.
4.  Follow all instructions.
5.  Do not use this apparatus near water.
6.  Clean only with dry cloth.
7.  Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the 

manufacturer’s instructions.

8.  Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, 

stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

9.  Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type 

plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. 

A grounding-type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. 

The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the 

provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for 

replacement of the obsolete outlet.

10. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at 

plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the 

apparatus.

11. Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
12. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the 

manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use 

caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury 

from tip-over.

13. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long 

periods of time.

14. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required 

when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-

supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have 

fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or 

moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

WARNING — The speaker output terminals, marked with (   ) can 

pose a shock hazard to the user. Speaker cables should be purchased 

ready-made from a qualified supplier. If the user decides to construct 

speaker cabling (using the instructions provided later in this manual), it is 

recommended that the construction be reviewed by a qualified electrician.
15. This apparatus has been designed with Class-I construction and must 

be connected to a mains socket outlet with a protective earthing con-

nection (the third grounding prong).

16. This apparatus has been equipped with a single pole rocker style AC 

mains power switch. This switch is on the front panel and should 

remain readily accessible to the the user. Note that when the power 

switch is not in the “ON” position, the apparatus is still energized, and 

internal hazardous voltages are still present.  

17. This apparatus does not exceed the Class A/Class B (whichever is 

applicable) limits for radio noise emissions from digital apparatus as 

set out in the radio interference regulations of the Canadian Department 

of Communications.

ATTENTION — Le présent appareil numérique n’émet pas de bruits 

radioélectrique édicté par les ministere des communications du Canada.
18. Exposure to extremely high noise levels may cause permanent hearing 

loss. Individuals vary considerably in susceptibility to noise-induced 

hearing loss, but nearly everyone will lose some hearing if exposed to 

sufficiently intense noise for a period of time. The U.S. Government’s 

Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has specified 

the permissible noise level exposures shown in the following chart.

  According to OSHA, any exposure in excess of these permissible limits 

could result in some hearing loss. To ensure against potentially danger-

ous exposure to high sound pressure levels, it is recommended that all 

persons exposed to equipment capable of producing high sound pres-

sure levels use hearing protectors while the equipment is in operation. 

Ear plugs or protectors in the ear canals or over the ears must be worn 

when operating the equipment in order to prevent permanent hearing 

loss if exposure is in excess of the limits set forth here. 

WARNING — To reduce the risk of fire or 

electric shock, do not expose this apparatus 

to rain or moisture.
