DARK TERROR IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION ENGLISH The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of un-insulated ‘dangerous voltage’ within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.
DARK TERROR • Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades, one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong is provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet. • Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
DARK TERROR EMI ENGLISH Connect the supplied mains cord to the AC Mains Input on the amplifier to your AC mains wall outlet. This Class I electrical equipment must be earthed. The correct mains fuse value for your region are displayed on the unit, close to the AC Mains Input. Replace only with the same type and value. If the mains fuse repeatedly blows, contact your Orange dealer.
DARK TERROR POWERING UP Good quality standard instruments (shielded) and speaker (non-shielded) cables are essential to a prolonged and enjoyable relationship with your amp. We recommend that you do not use cables with sprung or locking jacks as this can cause untimely wear on input and speaker jacks. ENGLISH When powering up a valve amplifier, it must be switched to STBY for at least four minutes before being switched to play (15 Watts or 7 Watts setting).
