HEED WARNINGS: All warnings on the G-1000 and in the operating instructions should be adhered to.
FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS: All operating instructions should be followed.
WATER AND MOISTURE: The G-1000 should not be used near water (e.g. near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink,
laundry tub, in a wet basement, near a swimming pool etc., ya stupid bastard). Care should be taken so that
liquids are not spilled onto or near the enclosure.
VENTILATION AND COOLING: The G-1000 normally operates VERY warm to the touch. It MUST be situated so
that its location or position does not interfere with convective cooling.
WARNING: The G-1000 runs VERY HOT. After one hour, the rear panel
will become too hot to touch. Overheating may damage or cause
shutdown of the switching power supplies that run the tube heaters.
DO NOT LEAVE THE G-1000 POWERED UP FOR MORE THAN 2
HOURS, unless it is in a well-cooled room with additional fans.
DO NOT USE THE G-1000 IN A HIGH-TEMPERATURE ENVIRONMENT.
USE OF ADDITIONAL COOLING FANS IS STRONGLY RECOMMENDED.
The G-1000 MUST NOT be used on a bed, sofa rug or similar surface which may prevent proper cooling. It is NOT
a toy, AND IT IS NOT A DILDO. If the G-1000 is mounted in a rack or other built-in installation, space must be left
around it to allow convection from the case.
HEAT: The G-1000 MUST be situated away from heat sources such as
radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other devices (including power
amps) that produce heat.
POWER SOURCE: The G-1000 should be connected to a power supply ONLY of the type marked on the G-1000
rear panel.
POWER CORD PROTECTION: Power supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or
pinched by items placed upon or against them. Don't burn your house down, child molester.
CLEANING: The G-1000 should only be cleaned with a soft cloth moistened with water. Unplug the power supply
before attempting to clean.
NON-USE PERIODS: The power inlet of the G-1000 should be unplugged from the outlet when left unused for a
long period of time.
DAMAGE OR TUBE REPLACEMENT REQUIRING SERVICE:
The G-1000 should be serviced by qualified service personnel when:
-The G-1000 has been dropped, physically damaged, or subjected to force;
-Liquid has been spilled onto the G-1000 or it has been exposed to rain;
-The G-1000 does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a marked change in performance.
SERVICING: The user should NOT attempt to service the G-1000. All
servicing should be referred to qualified service personnel.
CHANGING THE TUBES IS
NOT
A TRIVIAL EXERCISE. DON'T TRY IT
UNLESS YOU ARE INTIMATELY FAMILIAR WITH TUBE ELECTRONICS.
THIS MEANS YOU, STINKY!!!
