C I TATION For Automatic Operation: Make certain that all connections to the Citation Controller or Processor, and to any other Citation power amplifiers in the system have been correctly made as shown on pages 13 through 16. Switch the "manual/remote" toggle switch on the rear panel to the "remote" position. Turn the master power switch ON, position. The LED below the Citation name will turn amber to indicate that the unit is in the "standby" mode with AC power applied. Your Citation 7.1 amplifier will now turn on automatically whenever the processor or controller is switched on. You may verify that your amplifier has been turned on in response to the control signal by noting that the LED below the Citation name will change from amber to blue. There will be a short second pause between the time the signal is applied and the indicator changes color until power is applied to the speakers. This pause is intentional, and it protects your speakers from damage as the amplifier stabilizes. You may also hear a relay click as during start-up. This is also normal. Once your system is turned on, you are ready to enjoy the finest sonic performance available. There are no controls to adjust on the Citation 7.1 amplifier. All volume and level adjustments are made by your preamp, controller or surround processor. There is no need to turn the amplifiers off manually. Simply turn off the Citation Controller or Processor, or the device providing the automatic control voltages and the 7.1 amplifier will go into a standby mode. Turn off and return to a standby mode may be confirmed by noting that the LED indicator under the Citation name on the front panel turns from blue to amber. IImportant Note: If you will not be using your audio system for an extended period of time, such as a vacation, it is always a good idea to turn the unit off using the rear panel power switch. This will prevent the automatic turn on circuits from accidentally turning the system on during your absence. Service Information If your installation has followed the suggestions in this manual you should enjoy many years of trouble-free operation and high quality listening enjoyment.

In the event of a problem, contact your dealer, custom installer or the Citation Center at 800-787-6766. It is important that any repairs be carried out only by an authorized Citation service agent to assure proper service and to preserve the protection of your Limited Warranty. It is a good idea to keep your sales slip or receipt in a safe place with this manual so that it will be available to verify the purchase date for warranty claims. Fuse The Citation 7.1 uses internal fuses to protect both it and your speakers from damage. In the event that a fuse replacement is required, make certain that a fuse of the original rating is used.

in
the
"standby"
mode
with
AC
power

Your
Citation
7.1
amplifier
will
now
turn
on
automatically
whenever
the
processor
or
controller
is
switched
on.
You
may
verify
that
your
amplifier
has
been
turned
on
in
response
to
the
control
signal
by
noting
that
the
LED
below
the
Citation
name
will
change
from
amber
to
blue.
There
will
be
a
short
second
pause
between
the
time
the
signal
is
applied
and
the
indicator
changes
color
until
power
is
applied
to
the
speak-
ers.
This
pause
is
intentional,
and
it
protects
your
speakers
from
damage
as
the
ampli-
fi
er
stabilizes.
You
may
also
hear
a
relay
click
as
during
start-up.
This
is
also
normal.
Once
your
system
is
turned
on,
you
are
ready
to
enjoy
the
fi
nest
sonic
performance
available.
There
are
no
controls
to
adjust
on
the
Citation
7.1
amplifier.
All
volume
and
level
adjustments
are
made
by
your
preamp,
controller
or
surround
processor.
There
is
no
need
to
turn
the
amplifiers
off
manually.
Simply
turn
off
the
Citation
Controller
or
Processor,
or
the
device
providing
the
automatic
control
voltages
and
the
7.1
amplifier
will
go
into
a
standby
mode.
Turn
off
and
return
to
a
standby
mode
may
be
confirmed
by
noting
that
the
LED
indicator
under
the
Citation
name
on
the
front
panel
turns
from
blue
to
amber.
I
Important
Note:
If
you
will
not
be
using
your
audio
system
for
an
extended
period
of
time,
such
as
a
vacation,
it
is
always
a
good
idea
to
turn
the
unit
off
using
the
rear
panel
power
switch.
This
will
prevent
the
automatic
turn
on
cir-
cuits
from
