1. Master Power Switch:
Turns the current to the amplifier ON or OFF manually. When
turning on the amplifier via a 12VDC source the switch must be in
the OFF position.
Additionally when adding or removing 12VDC connections or
any other connections the main power circuit breaker needs to
be in the off position. This will help prevent any surges that could
damage your products or cause bodily injury.
2 Peak LED Indicators: .
The Cinénova Grande is equipped with five or seven LED
indicators on the front panel that should remain unlit. These
LEDs indicate the operating status of each corresponding
channel. If an LED or all LEDs remain lit continuously, the
amplifier is clipping that channel and the volume should be
turned down immediately to prevent damage. Its ok for the LED
to flicker but it should never remain on continuously.
