Safety Instructions
Every person involved with the installation, operation and maintenance of this system has to:
be qualified follow the instructions of this manual
Before your initial start-up, please make sure that there is no damage caused by transportation. Should there be any, consult your dealer and do not use the system.
To maintain perfect condition and to ensure a safe operation, it is absolutely necessary for the user to follow the safety instructions and warning notes written in this manual.
Please consider that damages caused by manual modifications to the system are not subject to warranty.
This system contains no user-serviceable parts. Refer servicing to qualified technicians only.
IMPORTANT:
The manufacturer will not accept liability for any resulting damages caused by the non-observance of this manual or any unauthorized modification to the system.
Always disconnect power from the mains, when system is not used. Only handle the power cord by the plug. Never pull out the plug by tugging the power cord.
Always operate the unit with the AC ground wire connected to the electrical system ground.
Avoid flames and do not put close to flammable liquids or gases.

Avoid ground loops! Always be sure to connect the power amps and the mixing console to the same electrical circuit to ensure the same phase!
Avoid installing your equipment very near radio or TV sets, mobile phones, etc., as these can cause
RF (radio frequency) interference.
Before changing your grounds around, always turn your amplifiers down.
Before connecting or disconnecting the power cord, make sure that the power switch is in the OFF position.
Before switching on or off make sure the sound system’s amplifiers are off or turned down: this will avoid signal peaks, which are annoying and sometimes dangerous (particularly for speaker enclosures).
Do not connect (parallel or series) an amplifier output with any other amplifier output.
Do not connect this device to a dimmer pack.
Do not drive the inputs with a signal level higher than required to drive the equipment to full output.
Do not insert objects into air vents.
Do not open this device. Risk: hazardous radiation exposure.
Do not run the output of any amplifier channel, back into another channel’s input.
Do not switch the system on and off in short intervals, as this would reduce the system’s life.
Extreme frequency boosts in connection with a high input signal level may lead to overdriving your
equipment. Should this occur, it is necessary to reduce the input signal level by using the INPUT control.
For replacement use fuses of same type and rating only.
If device is dropped or struck, disconnect mains power supply immediately. Have a qualified engineer inspect for safety before operating.
If the system has been exposed to drastic temperature fluctuation (e.g. after transportation), do not switch it on immediately. The arising condensation water might damage your system. Leave the system switched off until it has reached room temperature.
In system setup, the amplifier's output power must be 50%-100% more than the loaded loudspeakers’ rated power.
Make sure that the available voltage is not higher than stated on the rear panel.
Make sure that the power cord is never crimped or damaged. Check the device and the power cord from time to time.
Make sure that the signals into the mixer are balanced, otherwise hum could be created.
Make sure that there is sufficient room on all sides of the system for air circulation.
Make sure you do not use the wrong kind of cables or defective cables.
Make sure you use DI boxes to balance unbalanced signals; All incoming signals should be clear
Never let the power cord come into contact with other cables! Handle the power cord and all connections with the mains with particular caution!
Never remove warning or informative labels from the unit.
Never use anything to cover the ground contact.
Only use device indoors, avoid contact with water or other liquids.
Please turn off the power switch, when changing the power cord or signal cable, or select the input mode switch.
Prevent distortion! Make sure that all components connected to the Venga have sufficient power rating. Otherwise distortion will be generated because the components are operated at their limits.
Repairs, servicing and electric connection must be carried out by a qualified technician.
Sometimes, when you want to send one signal to more than one amplifier, you should use a signal distributor.
The best way (even if not always feasible) to avoid ground loops is to connect the electric ground of all the equipment to a single central point (“star” system). In this case, the central point can be the mixer.
To avoid or solve hum and buzzing troubles, try different combinations of lifting grounds on units that
are supplied with ground lift switches or make sure all chassis are connected to earth ground, either through the AC power cord ground or by the front panel rack mount screws.
To emphasize a frequency range, you do not necessarily need to move its respective sliding control upwards; try lowering surrounding frequency ranges instead. This way, you avoid causing the next piece of equipment in your sound path to overdrive. You also preserve valuable dynamic reserve
(“headroom”).
When connecting the other parts of your sound system, watch out for the so-called “ground loops”.
WARRANTY: Till one year after date of purchase.

Fig. 05
Venga Mobile 12, 12” Portable Pro Active Speaker
Connection Cables
Take care of your cables, always holding them by the connectors and avoiding knots and twists when coiling them: This gives the advantage of increasing their life and reliability.
Periodically check your cables. A great number of problems (faulty contacts, ground hum, discharges, etc.) are caused entirely by using unsuitable or faulty cables.
Unbalanced Balanced
For these applications the unit provides 1/4" TRS and XLR connectors to easily interface with most professional audio devices. Follow the configuration examples below for your particular connection.
Ordercode: 930000

Venga Mobile 12, 12” Portable Pro Active Speaker
Maintenance
The Showgear Venga Mobile 12, 12” Portable Pro Active Speaker requires almost no maintenance.
However, you should keep the unit clean.
Disconnect the mains power supply, and then wipe the cover with a damp cloth. Do not immerse in liquid. Do not use alcohol or solvents.
Keep connections clean. Disconnect electric power, and then wipe the audio connections with a damp cloth. Make sure connections are thoroughly dry before linking equipment or supplying electric power.
Replacing the Fuse
Power surges, short-circuit or inappropriate electrical power supply may cause a fuse to burn out. If the fuse burns out, the product will not function whatsoever. If this happens, follow the directions below.
01)
Unplug the unit from electric power source.
02)
Insert a screwdriver into the slot in the fuse cover. Gently pry up the fuse cover. The fuse will come out.
03)
Remove the used fuse. If brown or unclear, it is burned out.
04)
Insert the replacement fuse into the holder where the old fuse was. Reinsert the fuse cover. Be sure to use a fuse of the same type and specification. See the product specification label for details.
Troubleshooting
No Sound
Always check if all the cables and cords are connected. Always turn off power to the area before checking the wires, to prevent electric shock.
If everything works properly and there is still no sound, revisit the manufacturer’s instructions to make sure they were followed during installation. If everything was installed correctly and there is still no sound, you may want to consider bringing in a professional to take a look at your speaker.
If the speaker does not operate properly, refer servicing to a technician.
Suspect three potential problem areas as: the power supply, the speaker, the fuse.
01)
Power supply. Check if the unit is plugged into an appropriate power supply.
02)
The speaker. Return the Venga to your Showgear dealer.
03)
The fuse. Replace the fuse. See page 15 for replacing the fuse.
04)
If all of the above appears to be O.K., plug the unit in again.
05)
If you are unable to determine the cause of the problem, do not open the Venga, as this may damage the unit and the warranty will become void.
06)
Return the device to your Showgear dealer.
