8 Service
Crown amplifiers are quality units that rarely require ser-
vicing. Before returning your unit for service, please con-
tact Crown Technical Support to verify the need for
servicing.
This unit has very sophisticated circuitry which should
only be serviced by a fully trained technician. This is one
reason why each unit bears the following label:
CAUTION: To prevent electric shock, do not
remove covers. No user serviceable parts
inside. Refer servicing to a qualified technician.
Complete the Crown Audio Factory Service Information
form, in the back of this manual, when returning a Crown
product to the factory or authorized service center. The
form must be included with your product inside the box
or in a packing slip envelope securely attached to the
outside of the shipping carton. Do not send this form
separately.
