Installation Precautions (continued)

Under no circumstances turn off the power protection circuit unless your amplifier can handle the combined impedance of all zones activated.

For example:

With the power protection circuit switch in the “OFF” position, an ISM6 with six pairs of 8 ohm speakers connected will present the amplifier with a 1.33 ohm load per channel. This may damage your amplifier or cause it to shut down.

With the power protection circuit switch “ON”, an ISM6 with six pairs of 8 ohm speakers connected will present the amplifier with a 4.33 ohm load per channel which will not present a problem for most amplifiers.

Consult your authorized dealer and/or the owner’s manual for your amplifier for complete details.

Power handling without the protection circuit switch engaged is 140 watts per channel.

Power handling with the protection circuit switch engaged is 70 watts per channel.
