remaining battery capacity, surrounding noise, wind direction,
obstacles and other environmental conditions.

Notes
• No accessory batteries are supplied.
• The design and specifications are subject to change without

notice for improvement.

3. HANDLING PRECAUTIONS

• The ER-1215/1215S megaphones are 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.
