same level it was playing at prior to muting when

you turned off MUTE mode.

PLEASE NOTE: The display will change to

Display Full Off mode after the unit has been

in MUTE mode for an hour.

PLEASE NOTE: When the CAP-151 is muted,

and the volume is turned up the PLAY mode is

automatically selected.

Display (on Remote Handset Only)

Pressing the DISPLAY button on the remote

handset allows you to control the brightness

of the display. There are 3 levels of brightness;

Display Full On, Display Medium On, Display Low

On, plus Display Full Off. Repeated pressing of

the DISPLAY button will cycle through the four

modes, from Display Full On to Display Full Off.

Pressing DISPLAY when the display is at Full Off

will cause the display to go back to Display

Full On.

NOTE: Three (3) LEDs will continue to be lit on

the display when it is in Display Full Off mode to

let you know that the CAP-151 is still on and

operating. When in Display Full Off mode and

any other functions are used, such as changing

volume or selecting a new source, the display will

light at Display Full On mode for five seconds

and then go back to Display Full Off mode. The

display will automatically go to Display Full Off

mode after the MUTE mode has been activated

for an hour.

Balance Control (Available on Remote

Handset only)

The balance control, found on the remote

handset only, permits equal output of each

channel in the centre (00.0) position without

additional loading to the signal. When shifted

to the left or right, it merely attenuates the

opposite channel. When operating the balance

control, the right of the display will show

BALANCE. By shifting the balance to either sides

(left or right) one of the two LEDs located on

either sides of the DIGIT display will light

accordingly to the side on which the balance is

shifted. The amount of attenuation will be show

on the DIGIT display in increments of 0.5 up

to19.5. If the balance control is shifted to the

maximum (19.5) on either side, the digit display

will show OFF which means that the opposite

channel now gives out no signal since the

balance is completely shifted to one side.

Protection Circuit

The Classé CAP-151 is equipped with rail fuses

(GDB4, 4 amps fast-blow, see fig.1) to protect

the output drivers and mosfet fuses to protect

the mosfets (2AG 1/2PT,

amp fast-blow,

see fig.1), which are used as pre-drivers for the

output stage of the amplifier. In the event that a

short circuit or other problems would occur at

the output of the amplifier, either or both of

these fuses may blow in an attempt to protect

the amplifier. There is also an AC line fuse

protecting the unit (see fig.1).

If any of the fuses has blown, THERE WILL BE

DISTORTION OR NO SOUND IN EITHER OR BOTH

CHANNELS. CLEARLY IDENTIFY AND CORRECT

THE SITUATION WHICH HAS TRIGGERED THE

PROTECTION.

CONTACT YOUR LOCAL DEALER. DO NOT TRY

TO CHANGE A BLOWN FUSE. REPLACING A

BLOWN FUSE AND RE-STARTING THE UNIT

WITHOUT CHECKING FOR COMPONENT FAILURE

COULD RESULT IN FURTHER, SERIOUS DAMAGE

TO VITAL COMPONENTS IN YOUR AMPLIFIER.

CONTACT YOUR LOCAL DEALER, or customer

service at the Classé Audio factory. Telephone:

+1(514) 636-6384.

IF ANY OF THE PROTECTION FUSES HAS BLOWN,

TURN THE CAP-151 OFF.
