Turning the Power On/Off

* Once everything is properly connected (p. 4–p. 7), be sure to
follow the procedure below to turn on their power. If you turn
on equipment in the wrong order, you risk causing malfunction
or equipment failure.
1.
Make sure that the KATANA's [MASTER] knob and the
volume of the devices connected to the KATANA are set
to 0.
* Before connecting your instrument to the KATANA's INPUT jack,
set the [MASTER] knob to the minimum setting (far left).
2.
Turn on the KATANA.
* Before turning the unit on/off, always be sure to
turn the volume down. Even with the volume
turned down, you might hear some sound
when switching the unit on/off. However, this is
normal and does not indicate a malfunction.

Turn on the power of the devices connected
to the LINE OUT jack and PHONES/REC OUT
jack.

Tilting the Unit

50/100 only
When using the KATANA-50, KATANA-100, or KATANA-100/212 at a
low position such as on the floor, extending the stand will make the
sound from the speakers easier to hear.
KATANA-50, KATANA-100
* The KATANA-50 and KATANA-100 have one folding leg attached
to the bottom, and the KATANA-100/212 has two folding legs
(at left and right).
* Be sure to fold the stand when transporting the unit.
* When you operate the stand, please be careful not to get your
fingers pinched between the movable part and the panel. In
places where small children are present, make sure that an adult
provides supervision and guidance.

Restoring the Factory Settings

Here's how the settings stored in the KATANA can be returned to
their factory-set condition (factory reset).
1.
While holding down the [PANEL] button, turn the power
on.
Each of the EFFECTS buttons continues blinking consecutively from
the left. When the blinking stops, all of the KATANA's settings return
to the factory-set state.
* It takes approximately 30 seconds for the factory reset to be
completed. Don't turn off the power while the factory reset is in
progress.
