connecting power

To connect the amplifi er to power, plug the attached power
cord into a standard AC outlet. Your amplifi er's fuse (located
on the amplifi er's back panel) protects the amplifi er from
voltage surges. If the amplifi er does not work when you
press POWER, check the fuse. If it is blown, see "Replacing
the Fuse."
