1. POWER SWITCH
To turn the unit ON or OFF, press the upper or lower portion of
this button. Before turning on the amplifier, check all connections
and turn down the level controls. A momentary muting is normal
when turning the amplifier on or off.
(Caution: Always turn on your power amplifier last, after all your
other connected equipment, and always turn off your power
amplifier before your other connected equipment.)
2. POWER LED INDICATOR
This LED illuminates when the power is turned “ON”.
3. CLIP (PEAK) LED INDICATORS
These LEDs illuminate if any section of the power amplifier’s
output are within 3dB of clipping. Occasional blinking of the LEDs
are acceptable, but if they remain on more than occasionally you
should turn down either the power amplifier’s level controls or
reduce the output level of the preceding component to avoid
audible distortion or hard clipping.
(Note: Operating the amplifier at hard clipping can result in
overheating or may damage your amplifier over a period of time.
Amplifiers that are damaged due to such user neglect, or
improper operation, are not covered under warranty.)
4. SIGNAL LED INDICATORS
These LEDs illuminate to confirm the presence of an input signal
greater than 100 mV at that channel of the amplifier
5. PROTECT LED INDICATOR
This LED illuminates if the power amplifier’s output connection is
shorted or the load impedance is too low. When the LED is lit, turn
OFF the power and check the output’s connection to verify that it
is correct, then turn ON the power again.
6. LEVEL CONTROLS
These control the level of signal coming into each channel. The
actual voltage gain of the amplifier is shown in dB. Turn these
controls counterclockwise if the peak LEDs illuminate steadily
(indicating too strong an input signal).

7. POWER CONNECTOR
The cord connector is used to connect the AC power source to
your power amplifier.
(CAUTION: DO NOT REMOVE THE CENTER GROUNDING
PIN.)
8. FUSE
If this fuse blows continuously, shut off the unit and have it
serviced by qualified service technician. 115V AC ~6A 250V
FB; 230V AC ~4A 250V FB
9. AC VOLTAGE SELECTOR SWITCH
Before plugging in the power cord, check to see that the unit is
set for the proper voltage for your area: ~115V (60Hz) or ~230V
(50Hz). A cover plate is provided to ensure that this switch is not
accidently reset or tampered with between uses.
