Safety instructions

For your own safety you must read this section in full rst!

Risk of electrical shock.

• Connect the device only to a properly wired and earthed electrical wall

socket providing the mains voltage indicated in this manual.

• Never manipulate the power cord or the plug. If a power cord is provided
with an earth lead, this is mandatory to ensure safe operation!

• NEVER operate the device if the power plug or the power cord is damaged.

• NEVER submerse the device in water. Wipe it only with a slightly damp

cloth. Liquid getting into the amp will risk a short circuit and will be
hazardous.

• NEVER expose the device to direct precipitation or moisture and never use it
in a damp or wet environment.

• Ensure that the power cord does not become wet during operation.

• Do not subject the amp to high temperatures, direct sunlight, severe

vibrations, shocks or tremors, or excessive dust.

• You must NEVER open the housing of the device or try to repair it. There
are no user serviceable parts inside and you face the risk of electric shock.
Warranty will become void if you open the housing.

• Do not place objects containing uids, e.g. ower vases or beer bottles, on

or near the device.

• Notice regarding power disconnection
To completely disconnect the device from the mains power source the power
plug must be removed from the power socket. For this reason the device
should be placed in a position where a constant unobstructed access to the
power socket is assured, thus in an emergency situation you are able to

immediately pull out the power plug. To eliminate the risk of re you should

completely disconnect the power plug from the power socket when the
device is not going to be used.

• Always grasp the power cord by the plug. Do not pull on the cord itself and
never touch the power cord with wet hands as this could result in a short
circuit or an electrical shock. Do not place the device, speaker cabinets or
anything else on the power cord and make sure that it does not become
clamped. Place the power cord in a position where it can not be trod on.

A damaged power cord can cause a re or an electrical shock. Check

the power cord from time to time. Should it become damaged contact our
customer service centre to have it replaced.
