In Case of

Trouble

The Ayre VX-5 provides comprehensive protection
for both your amplifier and loudspeakers, including
faults that may occur in your source components.

Overheating

If the unit is operated with insufficient ventilation,
the internal temperature may become too high,
triggering the thermal protection. In this case the
amplifier will mute, the bias current to the output
stage will be removed, the front-panel LED will
glow orange, and the front-panel mute/low-power
consumption button will be inoperative.

If connected to an AyreLink-equipped
preamplifier, a message indicating the amplifier
has overheated will be displayed.

If overheating occurs, be sure

to correct the cause before

continuing to use the

amplifier.

Once the unit has cooled, the LED ring in the
pushbutton will glow green, but the front-panel
LED will remain orange so that the cause of the
error is known. To restore the unit to the normal
operation mode, simply press the front-panel
button.
