Chapter One: Safety and Warranty     
  

1.1 Safety warnings     

We would like to stress the importance of the following points, for reasons ofyour 
personal safety, product longevity and product liability.     

Do not use the Amplifier in or near wet locations     
Do not store the Amplifier in damp or wet locations     

Do not operate the Amplifier on voltages other than those designated on the rear 
panel of the amplifier.     
Do not open the panels of the amplifier. No user serviceable parts inside.Your 

Schmidt operates on very high internal voltages, which may still bepresent after the 
Amplifier has been turned off and disconnected for awhile.     

Do not use the Amplifier for anything other than its designed purpose: To Amplify 
Electric Guitar Signals     

Do not use fuses other than those intended and specified for the Amplifier     
Do not use 2-conductor extension cords or anything other than 3-polegrounded 

outlets for this appliance. Your life may depend on it!     

    

Please observe the following points when transporting your Schmidt:     

Schmidt is a tube-powered amplifier; therefore it is sensitive to shock especially 

after playing the amplifier for a while. Please store and transport your amplifier 
gently and try to avoid extreme temperatures, which might produce condensation, 

resulting in moisture on internal components. Usually a 60 Minute 
acclimatizationperiod is sufficient to ensure safe operation. The amplifier should be 
stored in a controlled environment, and it should be transported in a suitable flight 

case. Make sure the amplifier gets transported in itsnormal operating position, not 
upside down or on its side. The Schmidt’s design incorporates a very potent power 

amplifier. It is configured to deliver satisfying guitar tones at most volume levels. 
In its normal operational volume level (75-80dB) it will provide beautiful tones with 

very little coloration. For reasons of your own safety, please do not run the 
amplifier above these levels for extended periods of time without wearing a hearing 

protection. Hearing Loss is a long-term ailment, and is not normally curable. 

    

   

1.2 Warranty     

5 years to the original owner with proof of purchase. Power Tubes and Pre Amp 
tubes are covered for 3 months to the original owner. The amps will be tracked via 

both Diezel USA and Diezel Germany recorded sales beginning 1/20/2009. ALL 
REPAIR WORK MUST BE DONE BY A DIEZEL CERTIFIED TECHNICIAN. Not following 

this procedure will VOID WARRANTY. This will ensure the the original owner and us 
at Diezel Amplification that the work is done correctly and that there is knowledge 

of what is going on out there with each amp. To any second owners or more, there 
is no warranty coverage nor is a warranty transferable. (This policy is no different 
then before). Of course we at Diezel are happy to serve people who purchase their 

amplifier on the used market should your amp ever need servicing. Parts and labor 
charges will occur for our work on your amplifier as usual.    

If you purchased your amp before 1/20/2009 you are categorized under the same 
guidelines as when you purchased your amp (Lifetime warranty for the original 

owner, 1 year transferrable warranty).
