Power

 This is your main power switch. The on position is indicated by the light being 

illuminated. The off position is marked by the "0" on the switch. Before turning the amp 
on, always check that a speaker is connected and that the power cord is firmly plugged into 
the amp and the outlet.

Rear Panel

Mains Input

Your RIVERA amp has a detachable power cord that connects to the chassis AC connector 
labeled Mains Input. Always use this cord and, in the event that the power cord requires 
replacement, replace it with the same type of power cord. Consult your RIVERA dealer for 
further information. Be sure to use a grounded electrical mains power supply socket 
whenever possible. These outlets have a grounding pin in addition to the normal line and 
neutral pin. The power cord supplied with your RIVERA amp has a 3-pin plug. Do not cut 
off or damage the ground pin. If the available electrical outlet is of the older 2-pin type, use 
a suitable ground-lift adapter.

The U.S.A., Canada, and Japan share a common CSA/UL-style cord. Most of Europe and 
Scandinavia utilize a Euro plug and have a SEMKO/VDE-style cord. Australia uses a 
different type of plug, as does England, and South Africa as well.

Note: Avoid using long power extension cords. Long cords have sufficient resistance to 
electrical current that the voltage arriving at your amp can be significantly reduced. This 
can have a bad effect on your tone.

Mains Fuse

This AC line fuse protects your amplifier from damage due to shorts, momentary surges, 
and defective power tubes. In the event of a fuse failure, always replace it with the same 
type of fuse.

Note: Always turn the amp off and wait about five minutes before replacing a fuse. This 
allows the parts to cool and high voltages to dissipate.

For 100VAC versions, the Mains Fuse is: 3 Amp, 250 Volt Slo-Blo type (size 3AG, or 
MDL)

For 115VAC versions, the Mains Fuse is: 3 Amp, 250 Volt Slo-Blo type (size 3AG, or 
MDL)

For 230/250VAC versions, the Mains Fuse is: T 1.6A (time-delay, 5mm x 20mm size)

HT Fuse

The power amplifier circuit has its own fuse for protecting the output section from short 
circuits and transient current peaks that exceed the normal current draw. These conditions 
are usually caused by a bad tube. When a short circuit or transient peak causes the fuse to 
blow, the output tubes should be checked and replaced, if necessary.
