Amplifier Tech AT6012 Stereo Amplifier User Manual


 
Precautions
The amplifier is a wideband design with substantial power output capability. Certain precautions must be taken to
ensure proper operation.
1. Never expose the unit to moisture.
2. Never plug an input cable into the amplifier while the amplifier is turned on.
3. Never apply the “thumb test” (touching the “hot” lead of the input cable with your finger) to the tip of the input
cable or input jack of the amplifier. RF rectification and/or hum will be created and almost surely will damage the
loudspeakers. ATI will not be responsible for damage to the loudspeakers due to improper use of the equipment.
4. Under no circumstances should the output terminals of the amplifier be short-circuited.
5. Avoid restricting the airflow around the unit. Good airflow is necessary to help ensure proper operation.
6. Be sure that the loudspeakers connected can handle the output power of the amplifier at the loudspeakers’ rated
impedance. The warranty on the amplifier does not cover damage to loudspeakers that have inadequate power
handling capabilities.
7. Do not stack other system components or any other materials directly on top of the unit. The heat-dissipating
system of the amplifier depends on free flowing air around the chassis.
WARNING: DO NOT OPEN AMPLIFIER, RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK! DO NOT ATTEMPT SERVICING
