PROTECTION CIRCUITS This amplifier has special protection circuits. ■ The thermal overload protection circuit automatically turns off the power if it begins to overheat. ■ The overdrive protection circuit automatically turns off the power if it is about to deliver too much power. ■ The short protection circuit automatically turns off the power if the speaker terminals are shorted. If the amplifier shuts off, check to be sure that the ventilation holes on the top of the amplifier are clear of obstructions, and check the speaker connections and impedance. 15
