Troubleshooting
If you experience difficulty in operating your World 600/World 1.2,
chances are good that you will be able to remedy the problem yourself
using standard troubleshooting techniques and suggestions offered in the
table on the following page.
If you wire your own cable, it is imperative that all connections be made
cleanly with no stray wire strands to short terminals. Keep in mind that
other components in the system can cause problems which may appear to be
caused by the amplifier; systematic troubleshooting will allow you to isolate
the source difficulty.

do
not attempt
to open or repair the unit yourself.

NOTE:
Upon installation of the World 600/World 1.2, there will be a
turn-on delay of up to one minute after AC power is applied to the
amplifier. This is a result of the initialization sequence preformed by the
amplifier’s High-Frequency Switch Mode Power Supply. Subsequent delays
will be minimal, as long as the World 600/World 1.2 remains connected to
AC power.
