Using the Pedal?

1.Turn on the power.

If you are using batteries

Connecting a guitar cable to the INPUT jack will turn on the power automati- cally. When you’re finished playing, make sure you disconnect the cable from the INPUT jack so that the batteries will last longer.

If you are using an optional AC adapter

The power will be on regardless of whether a cable is connected to the INPUT jack, so unplug it when you’re finished!

2.Connect the OUTPUT jack to your guitar amp.

Before doing so, turn the volume on your amp down. Your speakers and ears will thank you.

3. Pressing the effect switch alternates between effect on and bypass.

COOLTRON pedals are True Bypass so when the effect is not on, your signal remains unchanged.

4.Volume knob controls the overall volume (output) of the pedal.

5.Tweak your sound with the control knobs.

As with any piece of high-end gear, use your ears to decide what works best for you. Don’t have ears? Find someone who does and let them twiddle away.

You won’t hear sound for several tens of seconds while the valve warms up.

Battery Operation

When the batteries begin to run down, the Effect LED will become dimmer. Re- place the batteries in the compartment located on the bottom of the pedal. If the batteries run down completely, the effect will not operate. Replace immediately, you can’t let your fans down.
