MAINTAINING YOUR PARASOUND JC 1

10

Notes:

Your Parasound JC 1 power amplifier requires no periodic maintenance and has no user-

serviceable parts inside. To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not remove its top cover. The

amplifier’s exterior can easily be cleaned with a soft cloth pre-moistened only with a few drops

of water or glass cleaner.

Main Power Fuse

If this fuse blows, please contact Parasound Technical Service for further advice.
