Safety precautions

Children and minors are not to use the device and should be kept at a safe distance from the device
while it is running.
Do not run the device without the top cover in place. Voltages inside the amp can be lethal and
temperatures are high.
Please check that the mains voltage printed on the bottom panel of the amplifier corresponds with the
mains voltage in the country where you intend to use the amplifier.
Disconnect the powercord before any service to the amplifier.
In the unlikely event of a failure of the device repairs may be performed by authorized technicians
only.
Use ORIGINAL spare parts only!
Please take note of the fact that we decline product liability for damages caused by our devices, parts
and components as a result of:
Unprofessional and/or faulty and/or incorrect repairs that have been performed in other than
the approved repair facilities.
Usage of other than ORIGINAL and approved spare parts.
All devices must be operated under moderate climatological circumstances, comparable to those
under which human beings usually live. When the surrounding temperature is too high, the device will
heat up beyond its optimal parameters. This can damage the amplifier.
Proper ventilation is needed, and the amplifier should not be covered in. Allow approximately 3 cm of
air sidewise and approximately 4 cm above the amplifier to cool the amplifier.
Once the amplifier has arrived at its desired destination, make sure the amplifier has ample time to
adjust to the climate at its new location. It is likely that the changes in temperature and humidity
between the last location and the new one, has caused condensation to build up somewhere in the
amplifier. This can damage the device. Please allow the amplifier at least two hours to acclimatise.
The amplifier comes fully assembled, ready to go.
The decive MUST be switched OFF while connecting it to other components.
A softstart prevents high initial currents through the cold, low impedance, heating element. This
prevents the element to break at its most narrow spot.
