Main Circuit Breaker

Your amplifier is supplied with a heavy-duty magnetic circuit breaker. If power to your amplifier is interrupted, inspect the circuit breaker on the rear of the unit. If the circuit breaker is in the off position you may reset it to the on position to restore AC power. If the circuit breaker immediately trips to the off position, unplug the amplifier from the AC power source and contact the ATI Service Department.

WARNING: Always turn off the amplifier and unplug the power cord before making any electrical connections.
