PROTECTIVE CIRCUITS
Your new Warwick amplifier is equipped with a series of circuits to prevent it from destruction in case of inadequate ope- rating conditions:
When the unit is switched on, the SPEAKER OUT sockets are activated with a slight delay to | |
| protect the loudspeakers. |
In the event of a | |
| transistors from destruction by quickly reducing current. |
Direct current (DC): | This circuit continuously monitors the power amp output for direct current and protects the loud |
| speakers from overload should a transistor burn out. |
HF oscillation: | By switching the power amp off, this safety feature prevents from damages that could be caused |
Excessive | by frequencies in excess of 20 kHz (feedback, etc.). |

temperatures: | Should the |
| circuit protects the output stage transistors from destruction by switching the device off. |
Note: | Note: You can recognise that one of these circuits has been activated as a result of a fault, when |
| the MUTE LED glows continuously even though you have not selected the MUTE mode. In case |
| of a shortcircuit please check the speaker cable. The amplifier must then be switched off and on |
| again, to get back into playing mode after having removed the |
| on the amplifier switches automaticallyback to playing mode as soon as it detects the fault has |
| disappeared (e.g. the amplifier has overheated and cooled down again). |

GETTING STARTED | |
1. | Make sure that loudspeakers capable of sustaining the load of a bass signal are connected to the SPEAKER OUT |
| sockets (the speaker cables should meet a |
2. | Check that the mains supply has been plugged in and that all external (effects) units possibly used are correctly con- |
| nected and operational. |
3. | Set the MASTER control to zero. |
4. | Plug your bass guitar into the amplifier's INPUT with a shielded |
5. | Press the POWER switch to turn the device on. |
6. | Switch MUTE off and the red LED will extinguish. |
7. | Switch the COMPRESSOR off (the |
8. | Turn all volume controls of your bass guitar on to their maximum. |
9. | Adjust the GAIN control until the (loudly) played bass signal flashes the Clip LED. |
10. | Set the MASTER control to the volume you wish to play at. |
11. | Adjust the sound that you wish with the controls and switches described in the respective chapters FRONT PANEL |
| CONTROLS. |
12. | If necessary readjust GAIN. |
