Thank you for purchasing this Kam product, we are sure that it will serve you for many years to come.
To optimise the performance of this product, please read these operating instructions carefully to familiarise yourself with the basic
operations of this unit. Please retain them for future reference. This unit has been tested at the factory before being shipped to you.
To prevent or reduce the risk of electrical shock or fire, do not expose the unit to rain or moisture. To prevent a fire hazard, do not
expose the unit to any naked flame sources. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or if it is unlikely to be used for long
periods of time. When installing the unit, please ensure you leave enough space around the unit for ventilation. Slots and openings in
the unit are provided for ventilation to ensure reliable operation of the product and to protect it from overheating. To prevent fire
hazard, the openings should never be blocked or covered.
The unit is powered by mains electricity, always handle the power cable by the plug. Never pull out the plug by pulling on the cable.
Never touch the power cable when your hands are wet as this could cause an electric shock. Do not tie a knot in the cable. The
power cable should be placed such that it is not likely to be stepped on. A damaged power cable can cause a fire or give you an
electrical shock. Check the power cord periodicaly, if you ever find that it is damaged, replace it before using the unit again. Contact
your retailer for a replacement.
The voltage of the available power supply differs according to country or region. Be sure that the power supply voltage of the area
where this unit is to be used meets the required written on the unit.
The lightning flash symbol inside a triangle is to alert the user to the presence high voltage within the unit’s enclosure that
may be of sufficient power to constitute a risk of electrical shock to persons. Caution: to prevent the risk of electric shock,
do not attempt to open the unit. No user-serviceable parts inside. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. The
exclamation mark inside a triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance
instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.
Select the installation location of your unit carefully. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight or locations subject to vibration and excessive
dust. Do not use the unit where there are extremes in temperature (below 41ºF / 5ºC or exceeding 95ºF / 35ºC).
Unpacking and safety Please unpack your new product carefully. Your new product should reach you in perfect condition. Please
check that no damage has occurred during transit. If any damage is found, do not operate your unit. Please contact the retailer you
purchased it from immediately. If there is any damage to the mains cable do not use the device. Always disconnect the unit from the
mains supply when carrying out any cleaning of the unit.

Before putting the devices into operation, please observe the respective country-specific regulations.
Connections Connect the output of a pre-amplifier or mixer to the audio inputs. The input signal should be of line level. The
maximum output power is obtained when connecting 4 Ohm speakers. It is also possible to connect 8 Ohm speakers; however, the
output power will decrease in this case. The speakers must always have a power rating higher than the output of the amplifier.
Connect the output of the amplifier to suitable speakers via either the left and right audio output connectors. The majority of PA
speakers available are 8 Ohms. By connecting two 8 Ohm speakers together, their rating becomes 4 Ohms, therefore, if you attach
two connected speakers to each channel, you will achieve the maximum power output of the amp. Do not connect two 4 Ohm
speakers to each channel as this will reduce the load to 2 Ohms which is not recommended for this type of amplifier.
Switching On/Off In order to a avoid loud switching noise, always switch on ALL other units in an amplifier system BEFORE
switching on the power amplifier, and switch it off FIRST after operation. Before switching the unit on or off, always turn the volume
dials to their minimum settings.
Level adjustment Set the output of the mixer or pre-amplifier to its rated level (0dB) or to the highest undistorted output signal. Turn
up the controls so far until the maximum desired volume is reached. If the red CLIP LED illuminates (showing an overload of the
amplifier), reduce the channel gain.
