About the protector indicator
The amplier has a built-in protection circuit to protect the transistors
and speakers when:
•
The unit is overheated. Or
A DC current is generated. Or•
The battery voltage is over low or •
over high. Or
The speaker terminals are short circuited.
•
When the PROTECTOR indicator lights up in red, the unit
shuts down automatically. If this happens, please:
Take out the disc or tape and turn off the car audio.
