Cooling System
Your amplifier features a thermostatically controlled fan,
which will switch on when the internal temperature reaches 130 degrees F.
In low volume situations (into 8 Ohm loads) the fan may not come on at all.
The cooling system also features a high temperature thermal safety system,
which will activate a standby switch if the operating temperature goes above
190 degrees F. This circuit will automatically shut down the output of the
system in the event of overheating. It will automatically reset itself to normal
operation as soon as the unit cools down to a safe operating temperature.
NOTE
: the D.I. will continue to operate normally even when the amplifier is
in thermal safety mode. Only the stage sound will be lost.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Excessive heat is a very bad thing and can
result in severe damage to your amplifier. DO NOT b ypass or
disconnect any part of your thermal safety system. Doing so will
immediately void your warranty!
FOOTSWITCH FEATURES
The footswitch is connected via the rear panel of the amp using the supplied
7-pin DIN cable. When connected, the footswitch overrides the
corresponding switches on the front panel. From left to right, the buttons on
the footswitch are:
Mute
Engage this button to mute all outputs except the Tuner out. This
allows silent tuning, a feature that your guitarist will very much appreciate.
Unfortunately, it will not mute your guitar player, no matter how much you
wish it did.
Enhance Bypass
Disengages the Enhance circuits, allowing you to
instantly change tone. One neat way to use this feature is to create a tone via
the tone controls only, then dial in some Enhance for a second tone. Using
the switch, you can flip between the two tones youve created. This control
is also global, meaning that it affects both channels simultaneously.
Tube Bypass
Engage this button to bypass the effect of the Tube control.
