CARE AND MAINTENANCE

To enjoy your PA system for a long
time:
• Keep the system dry. If it gets it
wet, wipe it dry immediately.
• Use and store the system only in
normal temperature
ments.
• Handle the system gently and
carefully. Don't drop it.
• Keep the system away from dust
and dirt.
• Wipe the system with a damp
cloth occasionally to keep it look
new.
Modifying or tampering with the am-
plifier's internal components
cause a malfunction and invalidate its
warranty and void your FCC authori-
zation to operate it. If your amplifier is
not performing as it should, take it to
your local RadioShack store for assis-
tance.

REPLACING THE FUSE

If the PA system stops operating
properly, you might need to replace
the fuse in the back of the system or
the in-line fuse in the DC cord.
Important: Turn off the PA system
and let it cool. Then try operating it
again before you replace the fuse.
Caution: Do not use a fuse with rat-
ings other than those specified. Doing
so might damage your amplifier.
