Power Fuse
If this fuse blows, it is an indication of internal parts failure. Do not replace it with any larger value to
avoid damage to internal parts. Substitution of a larger fuse will void your warranty.

If you are still having problems, contact your authorized Parasound dealer or call Parasound Technical
Services. We can suggest other diagnostic tests you can easily perform and which will save you a lot of
trouble.
If we determine that your T/DQ-1600 should be returned to Parasound for inspection and possible
servicing, you must first obtain a Return Authorization number from Parasound. You will be asked to
repack the unit in its original carton and cardboard packing plus an additional outer box over its own
box for proper protection in transit. You must include your power cord and remote control handset. The
Return Authorization number must be clearly marked on the outer carton only. You should ship the unit
by UPS with adequate insurance specified. You must include a copy of your purchase receipt to validate
your ownership.
Units that arrive without your specific Return Authorization number, without a suitable shipping carton
or evidence of improper internal packing or collect will be refused. We do not accept collect shipments.
After repair under warranty, the unit will be returned to you via prepaid UPS. If we found no problem
with the unit, we will ship the unit by UPS collect for return shipping charges. In the case of an out of
warranty repair, we will advise you repair charges before you ship the unit. The same packing
requirements and RA requirement apply.
