1. Introduction
Honestly, who really likes to read manuals? We know you want to get started
right away, but please read this manual carefully and keep it for future reference.
It is only after reading these instructions that you will fully understand and be
able to use all the features your EUROPOWER amplier has to oer.
1.1 Before you get started
1.1.1 Shipment
Your EUROPOWER was carefully packed at the factory, and the packaging is
designed to protect the unit from rough handling. Nevertheless, we recommend
that you carefully examine the packaging and its contents for any signs of
physical damage, which may have occurred during transit.
◊ If the unit is damaged, please do NOT return it to BEHRINGER,
but notify your dealer and the shipping company immediately.
Otherwise, claims for damage or replacement may not be granted.
1.1.2 Initial operation
Please make sure the unit is provided with sucient ventilation, and never place
your EUROPOWER amp on top of other heat-emanating equipment or in the
vicinity of a heater to avoid the risk of overheating.
The mains connection is made via the enclosed power cord and a standard IEC
receptacle. It meets all international safety certication requirements.
◊ Please make sure that all units have a proper ground connection.
For your own safety, never remove or disable the ground conductor
from the unit or the AC power cord.

Fig. 2.1: Front panel control elements
Since control elements of both the EP2000 and the EP4000 are identical, we have
used the EP2000 as the model represented in the illustrations to assure simplicity.
(1) The MAIN SWITCH is used to power up the amp.
◊ Merely switching the unit off does not mean that it is fully
disconnected from the mains. When not using the unit for prolonged
periods of time, please unplug the unit’s power cord from the
power outlet.
(2) VENTILATION openings are located at the front of the unit, so that hot air is
prevented from being trapped inside the unit, thus causing faulty operation
or even damage.
(3) The CLIP LED lights up when the signal is distorted. Should distortion occur,
reduce the input level, so that the CLIP LED stops lighting up.
(4) The SIGNAL LED lights up as long as a signal is present at the input.
(5) The GAIN control (channels 1 and 2) is used for setting up the input gain.
(6) The POWER LED lights up as soon as the unit is poweredup.
