3. Precautions ___________________________________________________
- Save the packing material.
Should you ever need to ship the amplifier, use only the original packing.
- Read this manual carefully before installing and operating your amplifier.
Retain this documentation for future reference.
- Always operate the amplifier with a grounded AC mains supply.
Ensure that the quality of the mains supply is good enough and that it can supply the
required peak currents. In addition, proper earthing is necessary to prevent hum and safety problems.
- Do not use the amplifier if there is visual damage to the enclosure or cables.
Inspect the amplifier and wiring before use. When in doubt, have the
amplifier inspected by authorized technical personnel.
- Do not make connections to the amplifier while it is switched on.
Always shut off the amplifier when making connections to
it, and mute the inputs when making connections to preceding equipment in the chain.
- Do not spill water or any other liquid to or into the amplifier.
Do not operate the amplifier if suspected or standing in liquid.
- Do not block the air intake for the fan on the front, or the exhaust ports on the left side of the amplifier.
The amplifier can run hot, or even go into
protect mode if there is insufficient cooling air.
- Do not remove the cover.
There are no user serviceable parts inside the amplifier. Removing the cover exposes you to dangerous voltages inside the
amplifier.
- Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.
Servicing is required when the amplifier has been damaged in any way, liquid has been spilled on or into the
amplifier, does not operate normally or has been dropped.
- Do not series or parallel connect an amplifier output with any other amplifier output.
Connecting outputs together can cause damage to the amplifiers.
