FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Q. Will it harm a component to plug it into an outlet that it’s not designated to power, like a high power amplifier into an outlet marked for TV?

A. No. However, you may not realize the full performance potential of the component.

Q. If my PowerCenter stops operating, what do I do?

A. First you need to check the reset button (labeled as BREAKER 15A on the PowerCenter’s rear panel). It is possible the overload came from your high-powered audio equipment. If your system were to draw too much power, a special circuit breaker may kick in. To restore the operation of your PowerCenter, wait for 10 minutes and press the reset button. If power is still not restored to your PowerCenter, please refer to page 24 and read through the related troubleshooting questions.
