NORMAL WAVEFORMS OF AMPLIFIER CIRCUIT AND LIKELY FAULTY BLOCKS
The HIC protection circuit functions if any cord at a speaker terminal is short-circuited or if the unit overheats because of improper
operation. At the same time, OVERLOAD scrolls across the FL display.
In this state, all keys remain in operative; if any key is pressed, SWITCH OFF POWER scrolls across the FL display.
If an overload occurs, immediately power off the unit and check the speaker connection, venting holes and cooling fans. After
fixing any faults, power on the unit again and check for proper operation.
If no defects are found, or if the unit remains overload after it is power on again, check the circuit for faults.
