Rear Panel I. POWER CORD Connect to a grounded outlet in accordance with the voltage and frequency ratings specified on the rear panel of your amplifier. J. FOOTSWITCH JACK Plug in a footswitch (optional equipment) to enable remote selection of the FAT boost circuit. The FAT switch {C} on the control panel is disabled when the footswitch is connected. K. SPEAKER JACK Connection for the internal speaker -or- an Ω external speaker cabinet. ! An 8Ω speaker load must always be connected to the Speaker jack when the unit is ON to prevent damage to the amplifier. L. TUBE STABILIZER A shock-absorbing stabilizer is installed on the output tubes to minimize the tube vibration and microphonics that normally develop over time. The stabilizer can be used with all output tubes compatible with your Blues Junior™ III amplifier. M. FENDER® GROOVE TUBES® Your new Blues Junior III amplifier comes equipped with the highest quality tubes available, sourced from various manufacturers worldwide. Because of occasional irregularities in supply, the specific tube type used in each amplifier is subject to change without notice. When replacing the EL output tubes, please note the specific tube markings on the original tubes factory supplied with your amplifier. For example, EL output tube types include, but are not limited to: GT-EL -R; GT-EL -S; ST-EL -R; etc. The installation of a different type may require significant adjustment by a qualified technician to avoid reduction in performance and tube life. Additionally, Fender Groove Tubes tests and sorts our EL output tubes based on their measured performance. The sorted tubes are labeled with a fine rating of - and may also be labeled with a coarse rating color of BLUE, WHITE or RED. A pair of matched EL output tubes with the same fine rating (and coarse rating, if applicable) as the original tubes will be the perfect replacement. However, replacement tubes with a fine rating within one number of the original tubes can be used without rebiasing the amplifier. If you have questions or concerns, please contact your Fender dealer or authorized service center. N. FUSE NOT SHOWN In the unlikely event of an electrical fault, your Blues Junior III amplifier is protected by an internal fuse. If the unit should suddenly stop working, take it to an authorized service center to have the fuse replaced and the cause of the electrical fault inspected.
