TROUBLESHOOTING

Problem: no sound

Indication: POWER indicator not lit

Check the AC plug.

Confirm that the AC outlet works

by plugging in another device. If too many amplifiers are used on one outlet, the building's circuit breaker may trip and shut off power.

An overload in bridged mono mode may cause the amplifier to click off for three seconds, indicated by the half-bright POWER LED, followed by a normal restart cycle. Check the load impedance (4 ohms minimum), or reduce signal level.

An amplifier which keeps shutting off may have a serious internal fault. Turn it off, remove AC power, and have the amplifier serviced by a qualified technician.

INDICATION: SIGNAL LED NOT LIT

If the green POWER indicator LED is at full brightness, yet the signal LEDs indicate no signal, check the input. Make sure the signal source is operating and try another input cable. Connect the source to another channel or amplifier to confirm its operation.

D É P A N N A G E

Problème: pas de son

Indication: DEL "POWER" éteinte

Vérifiez le branchement du

cordon d'alimentation.

Assurez vous que la prise de courant fonctionne en y branchant un autre appareil. Un trop grand nombre d'amplificateurs reliés au même circuit pourraient faire déclencher le disjoncteur, coupant l'alimentation.

Une surcharge en mode ponté mono pourrait éteindre momentanément l'amplificateur, tel qu'indiqué par la DEL POWER qui passera à demi- intensité, suivi par le cycle normal d'allumage. Vérifiez l'impédance de la charge (4 ohms minimum), ou réduisez le niveau de signal. L'allumage continu des DEL CLIP indique la mise en sourdine par le circuit de protection à cause de surchauffe.

Un amplificateur qui passe continuellement en mode protection pourrait être défectueux. Eteignez l'amplificateur, débranchez le, puis faites le vérifier par un technicien compétent.

INDICATION: DEL SIGNAL ÉTEINTS

Si la DEL POWER est allumée, mais que les DEL SIGNAL restent éteintes, vérifiez la source de signal. Assurez vous que la source fonctionne normalement, puis essayez d'autres câbles de raccord. Brancher le signal de source à un autre canal d'amplificateur pour confirmer la présence de signal.

FEHLERBEHEBUNG

Problem: kein Ton

ANZEICHEN: POWER Anzeige leuchtet nicht

Überprüfen Sie den Netzstecker.

Stellen Sie sicher, daß die Steck-

dose Strom führt, indem Sie ein anderes Gerät einstecken. Falls zu viele Verstärker angeschlossen sind, kann die Haussicherung ansprechen und die Versorgung unterbrechen.

Eine Übersteuerung im Mono- brückenbetrieb kann den Verstärker für drei Sekunden stummschalten, was durch eine halbhelle POWER LED angezeigt wird. Überprüfen Sie die Impedanz der angeschlossenen Lautsprecher (minimal 4 Ohm!), oder reduzieren Sie den Signalpegel. Eine hell aufleuchtende, rote CLIP LED zeigen eine thermische Abschaltung an.

Ein Verstärker der ausgeschaltet bleibt, kann einen internen Defekt haben. Schalten Sie ihn aus, trennen Sie ihn von der Netzversorgung und lassen Sie den Verstärker von qualifiziertem Servicepersonal überprüfen.

ANZEICHEN: SIGNAL ANZEIGEN LEUCHTEN NICHT

Wenn die grüne POWER LED in voller Helligkeit leuchtet, die Signal LEDs aber kein Signal anzeigen, überprüfen Sie den Eingang. Stellen Sie sicher, daß die Quelle arbeitet und versuchen Sie es mit einem anderen Eingangskabel. Schließen Sie die Quelle an einen anderen Verstärker an, um sicherzustellen, daß sie arbeitet.

SOLUCIÓN DE PROBLEMAS

Problema: no hay sonido

Indicación: El indicador de encendido no se ilumina

Revise el cable de corriente.

Confirme que la toma de corriente funcione conectando otro aparato. Si se conectan muchos amplificadores a una sola toma, el circuito se sobrecarga y se desconecta.

Una sobrecarga en el modo de puenteado en mono puede causar un apagado momentáneo, como de tres segundos, y el indicador LED de POWER bajará la intensidad de su luz, reiniciando la secuencia de encendido. Verifique la impedancia de carga (4 ohmios mínimo), o reduzca el nivel de la señal. Si el LED rojo de CLIP se ilumina indicará un apagado térmico.

Un amplificador que se apagada continuamente, puede tener una falla interna. Apáguelo, desconéctelo de la toma de corriente y llévelo con un técnico especializado para su revisión.

INDICACIÓN: EL INDICADOR LED DE SEÑAL NO SE ILUMINA

Si el indicador verde de POWER está completamente iluminado, pero el LED de signal no indica nada, revise las entradas. Asegúrese de que exista la señal y cambie los cables en las entradas. Conecte la señal a otro canal u otro amplificador para confirmar su funcionamiento.
