IMPORTANT NOTES
• The FX20C battery is in use whenever the INPUT jack is
plugged in. If you are not using the FX20C, be sure to
unplug the cable from the INPUT jack. This will prevent
unnecessary battery drain.
• Remove the battery whenever the unit is not going to be
used for an extended period of time. This will prevent
possible damage due to leaking battery fluids.
• If the FX20C fails to switch in or out or the LED indicator
stays lit, the battery needs to be replaced.
• Use of any AC adapter other than the DOD PS200R will
void the warranty of this product.
• Unauthorized repair of the FX20C will void the warranty.
Should your FX20C require service, contact your DOD FX
pedal dealer for return / repair information.
