18.  POWER CONNECTION

Just in case you lose the cord provided with the 1402-

VLZ3, its power jack accepts a standard 3-prong IEC 
cord like those found on most professional recorders, 
musical instruments, and computers. 

WARNING: Before you plug the AC power cord 
into the 1402-VLZ3, you must make sure that 
the VOLTAGE SELECTOR [20] slide switch is 

set to the same voltage as your local AC mains supply. 

WARNING: Disconnecting the AC mains plug’s 
ground pin can be dangerous. Please don’t do 
it.

19.  FUSE

The 1402-VLZ3 is fused for your (and its own) protec-

tion. If you suspect a blown fuse, disconnect the AC 
mains power cord, pull the fuse drawer out (located just 
below the cord receptacle) and replace the fuse with 
a 500 mA (0.5 amps) SLO BLO 5x20 mm, available at 
electronics stores or your dealer. If your local voltage is 
220-240 VAC, use a 250 mA fuse.

If two fuses blow in a row, something is very wrong. 

Please call our toll-free number 1-800-898-3211 from 
within the U.S. (or call the distributor in your country) 
and find out what to do.

20.  VOLTAGE SELECTOR

WARNING: Before you plug the AC power cord 
into the 1402-VLZ3, you must make sure that 

this slide switch is set to the same voltage as your local 
AC main supply. Only slide the voltage switch with the 
power cord unplugged.

Use a small flat-headed screwdriver to slide the switch 

if needed. The switch allows you to use the mixer in dif-
ferent countries and voltages, meet interesting people 
from other cultures, and entertain them with your 
unique blend of Rockabilly Funkadelia Thrash Metal.

21.  POWER SWITCH

Press the top of this rocker switch inwards to turn on 

the mixer. The power LED on the top surface of the mix-
er will glow with happiness, or at least it will if you have 
the mixer plugged in to a suitable live AC mains supply.

Press the bottom of this switch to put the mixer into 

standby mode. It will not function, but the circuits are 
still live. To remove AC power, either turn off the AC 
mains supply, or unplug the power cord from the mixer 
and the AC mains supply.

As a general guide, you should turn on your mixer 

first, before the power amplifier or powered speakers, 
and turn it off last. This will reduce the possibilities of 
any turn-on, or turn-off thumps in your speakers. 

22.  PHANTOM SWITCH

This global rocker switch controls the phantom power 

supply for condenser microphones plugged into channel 
MIC [1] inputs (see page 8).

Press the top of the switch inwards to engage phan-

tom power to the six MIC inputs. Press the bottom of 
the switch to turn it off.

When turned on (or off), the phantom power circuitry 

takes a few moments for voltage to ramp up (or down). 
This is perfectly normal.
