PROTECTION CIRCUITRY
Your REFERENCE amplifier is protected against both overheating and short
circuits by means of the following circuits:
l Main power supply fuses
l Auto High
CurrentTM
power supply
l Circuit Breaker on each channel (Reference414s only)
l Smart Power Supply Thermal
RollbackTM
activating at 85°C
l A fail-safe thermal protection circuit activating at 95°C
Your amplifier also incorporates an innovative Fault Diagnosis System that
identifies a blown power supply fuse.
[hOTE:
_____
If
you experience blown main power supply fuses, it is likely that the
i
amplifier is seeing a dead short, either in the speaker wire or in the speaker
i
itself Rectify the problem before blowing mu/tip/e fuses! DO NOT increase
values beyond the original fuse value! Doing so will void your warranty and may
damage your amplifier.
