Mains Fuse (18) The MAINS FUSE requires a 2 AMP fast-acting fuse. This fuse protects your amplifier from voltage peaks from your power outlet. - Page 9 • Always operate your amplifier with the proper impedance output that matches your speaker cabinets(s). • In all cases, always use a good quality heavy gauge speaker cable (not a shielded instrument cable) to connect your BRITISH DREAM MKII to the speaker cabinet(s).

160-- Effects Insert (23) The EFFECTS INSERT of the British Dream MKII is designed to allow you to insert an effects device (most often, time-based effects like delay or reverb) after the preamp and before the power amp. When no effects device is present, this circuit is completely bypassed to deliver a direct signal path between the preamp and power amp stage. -

Bias adjustments are not intended to be user-serviceable. Attempting to adjust the bias yourself will expose you to very dan- gerous high-voltage electricity that can kill you. -
