2. Cyfarwyddiadau Diogelwch Pwysig
- Read these instructions thoroughly before operating the ampllewywr.
- Cadwch y cyfarwyddiadau hyn er mwyn cyfeirio atynt yn y dyfodol.
- Gwrandewch ar bob rhybudd ar y cynnyrch ac yn y cyfarwyddiadau gweithredu.
- Dilynwch yr holl gyfarwyddiadau ar gyfer gweithredu diogel.
- Peidiwch â defnyddio'r offer hwn ger dŵr.
- Glanhewch â lliain sych yn unig.
- Peidiwch â rhwystro unrhyw agoriadau awyru. Gosodwch yn unol â chyfarwyddiadau'r gwneuthurwr.
- Peidiwch â gosod yn agos at unrhyw ffynonellau gwres fel rheiddiaduron, cofrestrau gwres, stofiau, neu gyfarpar arall (gan gynnwys amplifyddion) sy'n cynhyrchu gwres.
- Peidiwch â threchu pwrpas diogelwch y plwg polariaidd neu'r math o sylfaen. Mae gan blwg polariaidd ddau lafn gydag un yn lletach na'r llall. Mae gan blwg daearu ddau lafn a thrydydd prong sylfaen. Darperir y llafn llydan neu'r trydydd prong er eich diogelwch. Os nad yw'r plwg a ddarperir yn ffitio i mewn i'ch allfa, ymgynghorwch â thrydanwr i gael gwared ar yr allfa ddarfodedig.
- Amddiffynnwch y llinyn pŵer rhag cael ei gerdded ymlaen neu ei binsio, yn enwedig wrth blygiau, cynwysyddion cyfleustra, a'r pwynt lle maent yn gadael y cyfarpar.
- Defnyddiwch atodiadau/ategolion a nodir gan y gwneuthurwr yn unig.
- Tynnwch y plwg o'r cyfarpar hwn yn ystod stormydd mellt neu pan na chaiff ei ddefnyddio am gyfnodau hir o amser.
- Cyfeirio pob gwasanaeth i bersonél gwasanaeth cymwys. Mae angen gwasanaethu pan fydd y cyfarpar wedi'i ddifrodi mewn unrhyw ffordd, fel llinyn cyflenwad pŵer neu blwg wedi'i ddifrodi, hylif wedi'i ollwng neu wrthrychau wedi disgyn i'r offer, mae'r cyfarpar wedi bod yn agored i law neu leithder, nid yw'n gweithredu'n normal , neu wedi cael ei ollwng.

4. Gosod
4.1 Cysylltiad Pwer
Connect the supplied power cord to the MAINS INPUT on the rear panel of the amplifier and then to a suitable AC power outlet. Ensure the power switch is in the 'OFF' position before connecting.
4.2 Guitar Connection
Plug your guitar into one of the INPUT jacks on the front panel. The AC10C1 features two input channels: 'NORMAL' and 'TOP BOOST'. Experiment with both to find the tone that best suits your playing style.
4.3 External Speaker Connections
The rear panel includes 'EXTERNAL SP' and 'EXTENSION SP' jacks for connecting additional speaker cabinets. The 'EXTERNAL SP' jack disconnects the internal speaker when used, while the 'EXTENSION SP' jack runs in parallel with the internal speaker. Always ensure the impedance selector switch (8 Ohms or 16 Ohms) matches the impedance of your connected speaker(s).

5. Rheolaethau Gweithredu
5.1 Rheolaethau Panel Blaen
- Newid POWER: Yn troi y amplifier's main power ON or OFF.
- STANDBY Switch: Engages or disengages the standby mode. For tube longevity, turn the POWER switch ON first, wait approximately one minute for the tubes to warm up, then switch the STANDBY to ON.
- CYFROL MEISTR: Yn rheoli cyfaint allbwn cyffredinol y ampllewywr.
- TONE CUT: This control is counter-intuitive. Turning it clockwise (up) reduces higher frequencies, resulting in a warmer, darker tone with more prominent mids and lows. Turning it counter-clockwise (down) reduces lower frequencies, making the tone brighter.
- TREMOLO (DEPTH & SPEED): Adjusts the intensity (Depth) and rate (Speed) of the built-in tremolo effect.
- LEFEL REVERB: Controls the amount of the built-in digital reverb effect. Use sparingly, as higher settings can produce a long decay tail.
- TOP BOOST (BASS & TREBLE): These controls adjust the low and high frequencies specifically for the Top Boost channel, allowing for precise tonal shaping.
- TOP BOOST VOLUME: Controls the volume of the Top Boost channel. When combined with the MASTER VOLUME, this acts as a preamp gain control for the Top Boost channel.
- NORMAL VOLUME: Controls the volume of the Normal channel. Similar to the Top Boost Volume, this acts as a preamp gain control for the Normal channel when used with the MASTER VOLUME.

5.2 Cysylltiadau Panel Cefn
- SWITCH TROED: Connect an optional footswitch (not included) to remotely switch the tremolo and reverb effects ON/OFF.
- SP ALLANOL: Connects an external speaker cabinet. The internal speaker will be disconnected.
- SP ESTYNIAD: Connects an extension speaker cabinet. This will operate in parallel with the internal speaker.
- IMPEDANCE SELECT: Switch to match the impedance (8 Ohms or 16 Ohms) of your connected speaker cabinet(s).
6. cynnal
- Cadw y amplifier clean by wiping it with a dry, soft cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Osgoi dinoethi'r amplifier to direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, or high humidity.
- Wrth gludo y amplifier, ensure it is properly secured to prevent physical damage. The tolex covering is not overly thick, so be mindful of bumps.
- Periodically check the tubes for signs of wear or damage. Tube replacement should be performed by qualified service personnel.
