This section describes the unpacking and installation procedures for your new component.

CAUTION

EQUIPMENT DAMAGE MAY OCCUR WITH IMPROPER FUSES.

NEVER REMOVE / INSERT AC LINE CORD WHEN THE UNIT IS ON.

Unpacking

All Cary Audio Design shipping containers have been specially designed to protect their contents and special care has been taken to prevent damage under normal shipping conditions. Mishandling should be evident upon inspection of the shipping container. If shipping damage is found after visual inspection, take care not to destroy the evidence. If necessary, document the damage with photographs and contact the transport carrier immediately.

Carefully remove your new component from its packing carton and examine it closely for signs of shipping damage. We strongly recommend saving all original packing cartons to protect your amplifier from damage should you wish to store it or ship it for after-sales service.
