Note : signal leds 2, 6 , 12 and 16 have multiple functions: during the rst few seconds of startup they
light up red, this is perfectly normal. When a strong audio signal is present on the amplier circuit,
the leds light up green. When an error occurs during operation, they will turn red to indicate an error
condition and the speaker relays will switch off automatically. Possible causes can be : amplier error
or DC on the output, amplier overheat or transformer* overheat. In such cases, remove the error
condition or overload and wait until the unit has cooled down before powering on again.
