Troubleshooting

Mixer and Amplifier Will Not Turn On
Is the included power cord correctly connected to a power outlet?
Amplifier Turns Off Suddenly
Is the vent on the top panel of the mixer blocked?

amplifier to cool. After a few minutes, the mixer should reset itself and can return to normal playback.

If the POWER limiter is flashing, the amplifier is being used beyond its design cababilities. Turn off and on and resume playback.

Conencting an Auxiliary Powered Speaker
Connect an auxiliary powered speaker to the MONITOR OUT jack. The MONITOR OUT signal bypasses the MASTER LEVEL
control. Adjust the level of the MONITOR OUT signal with the MONITOR OUT LEVEL control. If mono signal is desired, use
only the L MONITOR OUT jack. The mixer will automatically mix the L and R input signals together.
