REPLACING A FUSE

If the amplifier does not operate, you
might need to replace the red power
cable's 70-amp AGU-type fuse and
one or both of the 35-amp blade-type
fuses on the amplifier's back panel.
Check all three fuses.
Cautions:
• Do not use a fuse with ratings
other than those specified here.
Doing so might damage your
amplifier.
• After replacing a fuse, let the
amplifier cool down before you
turn it on again.
Note: You can order replacement fus-
es at your local RadioShack store.
Replacing the AGU-Type
Fuse
1. Disconnect the cable from the
vehicle battery's negative (–) ter-
minal.

2. Push together and twist the fuse
holder's parts on the red power
cable until they spring apart. Then
remove the fuse if it is blown.

3. If the fuse is blown, replace it. Use
only an AGU-type fuse with the
proper rating. The fuse must be
70 amps.
4. Reassemble the fuse holder by
inserting the fuse into the longer
of the fuse holder's ends, and
pushing together and twisting the
two parts until they latch together.
5. Reconnect the cable to the vehi-
cle battery's negative (–) terminal.
