Creek CAS 4040 advice (original version with DIN sockets)

$

I've recently acquired a Creek 4040 amp but I'm having problems.

 

The pdf manuals on the Creek and Hifi Engine websites show the rear for the later models with RCA sockets. Mine have DIN sockets for inputs and a different arrangement for speaker sockets (strangely each side has a red, black and yellow socket for switched/unswitched)

 

When I tried the standard red/black each channel for speaker sockets I had no sound. When I used the black/yellow each side the volume was deafening - even with the volume control at zero. I was scared to try any other combination for fear of blowing the speakers.

 

Anyone used one of these original amps or have a manual they could post here? I'm very wary of fiddling with wires and Creek amps. In a previous life I accidentally touched two speaker cables together (silly me with the amp on) and the amp went up in smoke. It was a 90 pounds (UK) bill - happened whilst I lived in London

 

Any help greatly appreciated

 

Thanks
