DC IN jack In addition to 9-volt battery operation, this unit can also operate on a 9-volt AC adaptor (PSA series; sold separately). * Use only the specified AC adaptor (PSA series; sold separately), and connect it to an AC outlet of the correct voltage. * If the AC adaptor is connected while a battery is installed, the power supply is drawn from the AC adaptor. AC adaptor (PSA series; sold separately) CHECK indicator This indicator shows whether an effect is ON/OFF, and doubles as the Battery Check indicator. The indicator lights when an effect is ON. * The brightness of the CHECK indicator (LED) will dim as the battery lowers. Replace the battery when the LED is dim or does not light. For instructions, refer to "Changing the Battery." [LEVEL] knob This knob adjusts the volume of the effect sound. * No sound will be heard when this knob is rotated completely counterclockwise. [TONE] knob Adjusts the brightness of the effect sound. Turning the knob clockwise brightens the sound. OUTPUT jack Use this 1/4" output jack to connect to the input of your guitar amplifier or the input of additional effect unit. Guitar amplifier [FUZZ] knob Rotating the knob clockwise increases the gain and fuzz effect. * If you set this knob too high, the noise will increase and oscillation may occur. Mode switch Switches the sound variation. V (Vintage) M (Modern) Reminiscent of the fuzz sounds of the 1960's, this is BOSS's original vintage fuzz sound. A fat yet smooth next-generation fuzz sound with high gain. Pedal switch This switch turns the effects ON/OFF. Thumbscrew When this screw is loosened, the pedal will open, allowing you to change the battery. * For instructions on changing the battery, refer to "Changing the Battery." INPUT jack Electric guitar This jack accepts input signals (coming from a guitar, some other musical instrument, or another effects unit). * The INPUT jack also serves as the power switch. Power is turned on whenever a plug is inserted into the INPUT jack, and is turned off when the plug is disconnected. When not using the unit, you should disconnect the plug connected to the INPUT jack. Precautions When Connecting · To prevent malfunction and equipment failure, always turn down the volume, and turn off all the units before making any connections. · Once everything is properly connected, be sure to follow the procedure below to turn on their power. If you turn on equipment in the wrong order, you risk causing malfunction or equipment failure. When powering up: When powering down: Turn on the power to your guitar amp last. Turn off the power to your guitar amp first. · Before turning the unit on/off, always be sure to turn the volume down. Even with the volume turned down, you might hear some sound when switching the unit on/off. However, this is normal and does not indicate a malfunction. · Do not use connection cables that contain a built-in resistor. Use of Battery · The life of the included battery may be limited as its primary purpose was for testing during assembly. · If you handle batteries improperly, you risk explosion and fluid leakage. Make sure that you carefully observe all of the items related to batteries that are listed in "USING THE UNIT SAFELY" and "IMPORTANT NOTES" (supplied on a separate sheet). · When operating on battery power only, the unit's indicator will become dim when battery power gets too low. Replace the battery as soon as possible. · If the batteries run extremely low, the sound may distort, but this does not indicate a malfunction. If this occurs, please replace the batteries or use the AC adaptor (sold separately). · Batteries should always be installed or replaced before connecting any other devices. This way, you can prevent malfunction and damage. Changing the Battery 1. Hold down the pedal and loosen the thumbscrew, then open the pedal upward.
