1 Save the carton and packing materi-
als! Should you ever need to ship the
unit, use only the original factory pack-
ing.
For replacement packaging, call Crest Audio’s
Customer Service Department directly.
2 Read all documentation before
operating your equipment. Retain all
documentation for future reference.
3 Follow all instructions printed on
unit chassis for proper operation.
4 Never hold a power switch or cir-
cuit breaker in the "on" position,
if it won’t stay there by itself!
5 Do not use the unit if the electrical
power cord is frayed or broken.
The power supply cords should be
routed so that they are not likely to be
walked on or pinched by items placed
upon or against them.
6 Always operate the unit with the
AC ground wire connected to the
electrical system ground. Precautions
should be taken so that the means of
grounding of a piece of equipment is not
defeated.
7 Damage caused by connection to
improper AC voltage is not cov-
ered by any warranty. Mains voltage
must be correct and the same as that
printed on the rear of the unit.
8 Do not ground any hot ( red ) terminal.
Never connect a hot ( red ) output to
ground or to another hot ( red ) output!
9 Power down and disconnect units
from mains voltage before making
connections.
0 Do not drive the inputs with a
signal level greater than that
required to enable equipment to
reach full output.
¡ Do not run the output of any ampli-
fier channel back into another chan-
nel’s input.
Do not parallel- or series-con-
nect an amplifier output with any
other amplifier output.
Crest Audio is not responsible for damage
to loudspeakers for any reason.
Ô Do not connect the inputs or
outputs of amplifiers to any other
voltage source: such as a battery,
mains source, or power supply, regard-
less of whether the amplifier is turned
on or off.
£ Connecting amplifier outputs to
oscilloscopes or other test equip-
ment while the amplifier is in bridged
mono mode may damage both the
amplifier and test equipment!
¢ Do not spill water or other liquids
into or on the unit, or operate the
unit while standing in liquid.
ˆ Do not block fan intake or exhaust
ports.
Do not operate equipment on
a surface or in an environment
which may impede the normal
flow of air around the unit: such
as a bed, rug, weathersheet, carpet, or
completely enclosed rack.
§ If the unit is used in an extremely
dusty or smoky environment: the
unit should be periodically blown free
of foreign matter.
¶ Do not use the unit near stoves,
heat registers, radiators, or other
heat producing devices.
ƒ The power cord of equipment
should be unplugged from the out-
let when left unused for a long
period of time.
