ˆCare and Maintenance

To enjoy your amplifier for a long time:

Keep the amplifier dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately.

Use and store the amplifier only in normal temperature environments.

Handle the amplifier gently and carefully. Don’t drop it.

Keep the amplifier away from dust and dirt.

Wipe the amplifier with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new.

Modifying or tampering with the amplifi- er’s internal components can cause a malfunction and invalidate its warranty. If your amplifier is not performing as it should, take it to your local RadioShack store for assistance.

REPLACING FUSES

DC Cable

The supplied cable is equipped with a 4A 125V fuse (in line) to protect your amplifier from voltage surges and abnor- mal conditions. If the power indicator does not light when you press POWER, check the fuse and, if necessary, re- place it with one of the same size and type.

To replace the fuse, unscrew the tip of the cigarette-lighter plug. Then remove the old fuse and insert the new fuse. Se- cure the fuse by reattaching the plug’s tip.

Amplifier

The power fuse protects your amplifier from power (voltage or current) surges when operating it from an AC power source. If the POWER indicator does not light when you press POWER, check the fuse and replace it with one of the same size and type. (A spare fuse is taped to the back of the amplifier.)

Follow these steps to replace the ampli- fier’s fuse.

1.Unplug the amplifier’s power cord.

2.Using a flat-blade screwdriver, push and turn the fuse holder’s cap coun- terclockwise until the fuse holder pops out.

3.Remove the fuse holder and replace the fuse.

4.Slide the fuse holder back in place then, using a flat-blade screwdriver, push and turn the fuse holder’s cap fully clockwise to secure it.
