*In case the transformer is overheated, it may take a long time before the amplifier has cooled
down sufficiently. In such cases, you may have overloaded the amplifier too much. Power off the
amplifier immediately, correct the error and wait until the amplifier has cooled down.
Led status messages
Under normal circumstances, this amplifier will not overheat. If any of the above
mentioned overheating situations occur, please check the load impedance, the
ventilation and last but not least, input levels. The intelligent APC circuitry will
reduce input gain and level to a safe margin within certain limits. This circuitry can
not correct an input signal that is already clipped and distorted.
