Setting up the GX15G
WARNING!
To avoid electrical shock or any other damage, make sure that the GX15G
and all other devices are switched off before you start connecting them to the
amplifi er!
Power Connections/Mains
Before connecting to a grounded power outlet,
make sure the power switches are in the off position
(facing down). The GX15G is set up for 230 V of line
voltage. Once the amplifi er is plugged in, you can
get started!
Connecting an electric guitar
The input jacks on the left side of the frontpanel
receive your electric bass signal by means of a shielded
guitar cord with 1/4” mono style plug. Make sure
the master volume of the amplifi er is set to the lowest
position to avoid disturbing noise while connecting.
Speaker protection
The GX15G has a built-in 8” speaker. It can be
damaged by heavy feedbacks of the connected
instruments. You should always keep a suffi cient
distance to the amplifi er to avoid such feedbacks. This
will extend the life of the speaker and the power amp.
Travelling Abroad
If travelling to countries outside the EU, always check
their local voltage before operating the GX15G.
Mismatched voltages can and most likely will destroy
your amplifi er. Should you encounter voltages and
frequencies other than those indicated, a transformer
must be used between the power socket and the
GX15G. This transformer must be able to transform the
voltage and frequency to one of the indicated settings.
Main Fuse
The main fuse is situated in a little drawer which is
part of the power input jack. This sliding fuse holder
also hides a spare fuse. For 230 V, the fuse must be
a 0,25A slow blow. It is crucially important to use the
specifi ed fuse values only.
Maintenance
All checkups and repairs must be undertaken by
authorized service personnel. With the right treat-
ment, the electric circuit and the power amp will not
need any kind of maintenance at all.
