Unpacking the GTP-602

Before your new ADCOM tuner-pream- plifier left our factory, it was carefully inspected for physical imperfections and tested for all electrical parameters as a routine part of ADCOM’s system- atic quality control. This, along with full operational and mechanical test- ing, should ensure a product flawless in both appearance and performance. After you have unpacked the GTP- 602, inspect it for physical damage. Save the shipping carton and all pack- ing material as they are intended to reduce the possibility of transporta- tion damage should the preamplifier ever need to be shipped again. In the unlikely event damage has occurred, notify your dealer immediately and request the name of the carrier so a written claim to cover shipping dam- ages can be initiated. The right to a claim against a public carrier can be forfeited if the carrier is not notified promptly in writing and if the shipping carton and packing materials are not available for inspection by the carrier. Save all packing materials until the claim has been settled.

Placing the GTP-602

Although the GTP-602 does not gen- erate much heat, it is good practice to provide adequate ventilation for the unit. Therefore, the GTP-602 should be kept away from external sources of heat such as radiators and hot-air ducts.

We recommend that you exercise care when placing components on top of the GTP-602. If you are placing a heat pro- ducing component (such as an ampli- fier) on top of or below the GTP-602, it is recommended that you allow at least three (3) inches vertical spacing for proper airflow.

We also recommend that you leave five

(5)inches of space behind the unit for additional airflow and to allow space for interconnects to hang freely.

If you observe these recommenda- tions, the GTP-602 will perform reliably in any reasonable environment. You should also pay attention to such nor- mal considerations as protection from excessive dust and moisture.

The optimal performance of your new GTP-602 will ultimately depend on the care with which you make the connec- tions between the amplifier, preampli- fier and loudspeakers. All input and output signal connections should be made only with high quality, low-loss, low capacitance cables. For recom- mendations of the type and quality of interconnections that are best for your applications, consult with your ADCOM retailer.

The cable should be connected to a 3-pin polarized wall outlet, matching the wide blade of the plug to the wide slot of the receptacle. Do not use extension cords. Do not route the power cord where it will be crushed, pinched, bent, exposed to heat, or damaged in any way. Pay particular attention to the power cord at the plug and where it exits the back of the unit. The power cord should be unplugged from the wall outlet if the unit is to be left unused for a long period of time. Immediately stop using the component and have

it inspected and/or serviced by a qualified service agency if:

•the power supply cord or plug has been damaged;

•objects have fallen or liquid has been spilled into the unit;
