13) Unplug the apparatus during lightning storms or when not in use for long time periods.
14) Do not connect an amplifier output in parallel or series with any other amplifier’s
output. Do not connect the amplifier output to any other voltage source, such as battery,
mains source, or power supply, regardless of whether the amplifier is turned on or off.
15) Do not run the output of any amplifier back into another channel’s input.
16) Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus
has been damaged in any way, such as:
• liquid has been spilled into the unit
• an object has fallen into the unit
• the unit has been exposed to rain or moisture
• the unit does not operate normally
• the unit has been dropped or the enclosure damaged
17) Do not remove top or bottom covers. Removal of the cover will expose hazardous
voltages. There are no serviceable parts inside and removal may void the warranty.
18) An experienced user should always supervise this professional audio equipment, especially
if inexperienced adults or minors are using it.
1.2 User Responsibility
1.2.1 Speaker Damage
Your amplifier is very powerful and can be potentially dangerous to both loudspeakers and
humans alike. Many loudspeakers can be easily damaged or destroyed by overpowering,
especially with the high power available from a bridged amplifier. Always check the speaker’s
continuous and peak-power capabilities.
Even if using the amplifier’s front-panel attenuator reduces the gain, it is still possible to
reach full output power if the input signal level is high enough.
1.2.2 Speaker Output Hazard
Power amplifiers are capable of producing hazardous output voltages. To avoid electrical
shock, do not touch any exposed speaker wiring, while the amplifier is operating. See
Chapter 2 for information about outputs for proper connection of speakers.
