no sound will be output for a few seconds. Wait until the indica-
tor stops blinking and stays lit.

blinks blue or alternately blue and purple and no sound is
output (page 13).
o Since this unit has a large power transformer condenser,
the power transformer might make noise for a short time
after the unit is turned on. This is normal behavior, not a
malfunction.

lever when disconnecting.
