DEAR VALUED CUSTOMER,

We at Sonic Frontiers International hope you will derive many years of listening pleasure from your new 7 channel amplifier,

the Anthem PVA 7 Amplifier. This Operating Manual contains important information regarding the operation and care of the

PVA 7 Amplifier.  Be sure to read this manual carefully and follow these instructions in order to keep your unit performing

and sounding its best. Please contact Sonic Frontiers if you have any questions, a Customer Service Representative will be

pleased to assist you.

HAPPY LISTENING!

READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING!

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user of 

uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the products enclosure, of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of

electric shock to persons.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important

operation and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the amplifier.

Before operating your PVA 7 Amplifier, read and follow all instructions and warnings! Retain these instructions for future

reference.

CAUTION!

To protect against electrical shock and risk of fire do not expose to rain or moisture and do not use amplifier near sinks,

showers, bathtubs, swimming pools, saunas, in wet basements or near any source of water. Always unplug before

cleaning, and use a damp soft cloth.

To protect against electrical shock do not remove the amplifier cover. There are no user serviceable parts inside. If the unit

has been dropped, damaged, exposed to water or does not operate normally, it must be serviced. Refer any servicing to

your Authorized Anthem Dealer, who will return the product to Sonic Frontiers International.

CAUTION!

This amplifier has a polarized electrical plug. To protect against electrical shock do not use with any receptacle, extension cord

or any other outlet unless the metal arms of the plug can be fully inserted so that they are not exposed.

Use only with the AC voltage rating indicated on the rear panel. Do not overload outlets or extension cords, as this can

result in a risk of fire or electrical shock. Install so that the power cord will not get damaged over time. Unplug the amplifier

when not using it for an extended period of time to prevent damage due to lightning and power surges.

To protect against risk of fire and electric shock, do not allow any liquids or objects to penetrate the amplifier enclosure.
