• Always make sure to have the volume level turned down

before switching on power. Even with the volume all the

way down, you may still hear some sound when the

power is switched on, but this is normal, and does not

indicate a malfunction.

* Turning on devices in the wrong sequence may result in
malfunction and/or damage to speakers and other devices.

• The explanations in this manual include illustrations that

depict what should typically be shown by the display.

Note, however, that your unit may incorporate a newer,

enhanced version of the system (e.g., includes newer

sounds), so what you actually see in the display may not

always match what appears in the manual.

2.

Turn on the power to the guitar amp or mixer.

* Raise amp volume levels only after turning on the power to all the
devices.
