Notes on Use

Microphones are delicate. Do not drop, hit, or subject it to excessive shock.
Avoid extended usage or storage in high humidity or temperatures above 55°C (131°F).
If acoustic feedback occurs during use (a howling sound is heard from the speakers), point the microphone away from the speakers or increase the distance between the microphone and the speakers.
After use, disconnect the microphone cable from the transmitter.
If used in a humid location or excess liquid, such as sweat, comes into direct contact with the microphone head, sound may not be output or other malfunction may occur.
Always attach the wind screen before use. If the wind screen is not attached, breathing noises and other noise will be picked up by the microphone head.
When this unit is connected to a device other than a UWP-series transmitter, sound may not be output or the phase may be reversed.
