Short Circuit Protection
The circuit protects the amplifier from damage due to a short found in the  speakers or wiring. 
If one of the speakers or its wiring comes in contact with ground, the  amplifier will shut down.  
To resume normal operation, correct the problem  and turn the head unit off, then  back on.  The 
amplifier will reset and play again.
Thermal Protection
To protect the amplifier circuitry against damage caused by prolonged exposure to high 
temperatures, a thermal protection circuit is activated if the amplifier reaches excessively 
high operating temperature.  Once the thermal circuit is activated, the amplifier will shut 
down to cool off.  The Amplifier will automatically turn back on once it cools down to a safe 
operating temperature.
Protection Indicator
This red diagnostic LED on the side panel indicates that the amplifier has gone into protection.
Once on, the amplifier will have no output.  To resume normal operation, turn head unit off and
back on again. If the amplifier immediately goes back into protection, check for high
temperature, short circuits or low impedance.
