When powering down: Turn off the power to your guitar amp first. * Always make sure to have the volume level turned down before switching on power. Even with the volume all the way down, you may still hear some sound when the power is switched on, but this is normal, and does not indicate a malfunction. * When operating on battery power only, the unit’s indicator will become dim when battery power gets too low. Replace the battery as soon as possible. Operating the Unit 654 3 1. When you have made the necessary connections, set the knobs as shown in the illustration. 2.
