Mambo amp electrical safety. Important please read carefuly.
This amplifier is designed and manufactured in accordance with European electrical safety requirements for domestic appliances for use
indoors in a dry environment. Specifically the Low Voltage Directive (LVD) 2006/95/EC
In order to continue the intended level of safety, observe sensible precautions and please note the following points;

Always use the correct fuse.
There is a fuse fitted to the electrical inlet of the amplifier. Make sure the correct fuse is fitted. Never replace with a fuse with a higher
Amp rating.
Correct fuse ratings
for the 180W rms mambo amp are;
for 230V a.c. operation use a 1 Amp time-delay (T) fuse
for 115V a.c. operation use a 2 Amp time-delay (T) fuse
Mains power cable colour coding
The cable supplied uses European colour coding;
blue = neutral
brown = live (aka hot or active)
green/yellow = earth. (aka ground)
The equivalent USA colour coding is Black = Live White = Neutral Green = Earth
Australian colour coding is usually the same as European.
Use an RCD whenever possible to reduce the risk of electrical shock from musical instruments.
