FINISH-OUT INSTRUCTIONS  
SHOCK HAZARD !  
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an  
equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the  
presence of un-insulated “dangerous voltage” within the  
product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to  
constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.  
CAUTION !  
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is  
intended to alert the user to the presence of important  
operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the  
literature accompanying the product.

Damage Requiring Service - The appliance should be  
serviced by qualified service personnel when:  
Follow Instructions - All operating and use instructions  
should be followed.  
The power supply cord or the plug has been  
damaged; or  
Water and Moisture - The appliance should not be used  
near water - for example: near bathtub, washbowl, kitchen  
sink, laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming  
pool, and the like. Doing so can create a fire or shock  
hazards and impair the warranty.  
conductors, location of antenna discharge unit, connection  
to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the  
grounding electrode (see figure).  
Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled  
into the appliance; or  
The appliance has been exposed to rain; or the  
appliance does not appear to operate normally  
or exhibits a marked change in performance; or  
Cleaning - Use only a dry cloth.  
Attachments - Do not use attachments not recommended  
by the product manufacturer as they may cause hazards.  
The appliance has been dropped, or the  
enclosure damaged.  
Ventilation - The appliance should be situated so that  
its location or position does not interfere with its proper  
ventilation. For example, the appliance should not be  
situated on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar surface that may  
block the ventilation openings: or, placed in a built in  
installation, such as a bookcase or cabinet that may  
impede the flow of air to the ventilation openings.  
When the product exhibits a distinct change in  
performance - this indicates a need for service.  
Replacement Parts - When replacement parts are  
required, be sure the service technician has used  
replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or have  
the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized  
substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, or other  
hazards.  
Heat - The appliance should be situated away from heat  
sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other  
appliances (including amplifiers) that produce heat.  
Object and Liquid Entry - Never push objects of any  
kind into this product through openings as they may touch  
dangerous voltage points or short out parts that could  
result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any  
kind on the product.  
Safety Check - Upon completion of any service or repairs  
to this product, ask the service technician to perform safety  
checks to determine that the product is in proper operating  
condition.  
Power Sources - The appliance should be connected to  
a power supply only of the type described in the rough-in  
instructions or as marked on the appliance.  
Grounding or Polarization - Precautions should be  
taken so that the grounding or polarization means of an  
appliance is not defeated.  
Wall or Ceiling Mounting - The product should be  
mounted to a wall or ceiling only as recommended by the  
manufacturer.

FINISH-OUT CAUTIONS  
DO NOT install the dmc1 system until after the application of any wall covering  
material.  
DO NOT connect extra cables that may have been run for future speaker additions.  
Care must be taken to ensure these cables are not connected to the dmc1 Master  
Station unit. Un-terminated cables (no station) connected to the dmc1 Master  
Station may cause electronic feedback that will damage the Master Station unit.  
DO NOT install any satellite speakers that are rated other than 45-ohms  
impedance. Damage to the amplifier will occur.  
DO NOT over-tighten the screws for the remote stations or the Master Station as  
the plastic face panels may crack or strip out.  
DO NOT power up the dmc1 Master Station unit until all remote stations and  
speakers are connected.  
Use only M&S Systems certified replacement parts and have them installed by a  
qualified dealer or installer. Unauthorized substitutions can result in fire, electric  
shock, or other hazards.  
DO NOT connect Cat-5 wire if you are unsure of its terminating point. Connecting a  
door speaker to a Room Station may result in system damage.  
DO ensure that all rough-in instructions have been followed before power is applied  
to the dmc1 system.  
Upon completion of any service or product repair, have the dealer or installer  
conduct a safety check to ensure the system is in proper operating condition.  
DO NOT attach devices unauthorized for use with this system. Authorized devices  
include: (1) dmc1MM CD/MP3/iPod® Player; (2) dmc1CD 6-disc CD Player; (3)  
Audio components connected via the line level or docking inputs.  
Use only a damp cloth to clean the dmc1 Master Station and Room Stations. Do  
not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners.  
DO NOT install Patio Stations in locations subject to direct sunlight or water spray.  
Patio stations MUST be installed in protected areas such as a covered patio or porch.  
Failure to adhere to these instructions can cause equipment  
malfunction and void any warranty covered by Linear LLC.
