Hazard

In the audio amplifier, the circuit configuration is inadequate for mitigating the effects of foreign object intrusion. If a short circuit occurs in the unprotected circuit, the existing protection circuit may fail, causing the circuit board to burn. This can generate flammable gas and potentially lead to fire.

Remedy
