by the temperature of the unit rising above a safe level
or by an overload condition. If activated by a rise in
temperature, the unit will resume operation after cooling
off to a normal operating range. If activated by an
overload condition, the source of the overload must
be found and corrected to resume operation of the
amplifier. Most overload conditions are caused by
mis-wiring or operation into incorrect speaker loads.
Re-check all wiring and connections if this situation
occurs and correct as necessary.

Level (Gain) Control
The amplifier is capable of operating from sources
supplying a wide range of input levels. The Level
control should initially be set to the mid-rotation position.
If it is found that there is not enough output even when
the volume control on the car stereo is at its maximum
setting, adjust the Level control to increase the output
from the system. If, however, there is still output from
the amplifier when the car stereo volume control is at its
minimum setting, or the output level increases too fast
with a small rotation of the volume control, adjust the
Level control to decrease the output from the system.
Once the correct setting is found, this control should not
require any further adjustment.

Sub-Woofer Crossover Selector
This switch allows selection of the frequency filters that
permit the amplifier to be used to reproduce the entire
audio range or just the bass range.
In the "FULL" position of the switch, the response is flat
and unaffected so the entire audio frequency range is
reproduced by the amplifier. Use this setting if the
amplifier is being used to power a full range speaker system.
In the "LPF" (Low-Pass Filter) setting, only the bass
frequencies below the frequency set by the Crossover

Bass Boost Switch
This switch is used to accentuate the bass frequencies
by adding 12 dB of boost to the signal (at 60 Hz.).
