Cary Audio Design SLI-80 - Manual (Page 9)

INSTALLATION
This section describes the unpacking and installation procedures for your new component.
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.
Warranty Card
IN THE USA:
If you are the original purchaser of a new unit from an AUTHORIZED CARY AUDIO
DESIGN DEALER, please fill out the enclosed warranty registration card and return it to Cary Audio
Design within 15 days of your purchase. Cary Audio Design also suggests that you keep your original
packing cartons in case you ever need to ship the unit when moving to a new home. Warranty
restrictions apply. Consult the warranty section at the end of this manual for details. Please be certain to
keep a copy of the original sales receipt from your AUTHORIZED CARY AUDIO DESIGN DEALER to
validate the warranty if ever needed. The warranty is for the original purchaser only and does not
transfer to any subsequent owner.
OUTSIDE THE USA:
Your local Authorized Cary Audio Design Distributor will make his own warranty
policy for your country. Please check with them for the terms of warranty for your new amplifier.
Placement
In general, the location of your new SLI 80 is not critical. Certain precautions must be taken to ensure
optimum performance. Avoid extremely hot locations such as near radiators or other heating units. Keep
the top of the SLI 80 clear of books, paper or other equipment to protect against overheating! DO NOT
place your SLI 80 in a closed bookcase - overheating will damage the amplifier! Allow 8 to 10 inches
above the unit for proper ventilation.
Power Requirements
The SLI 80 is designed to operate from house current mains. The design voltage is 117 VAC at 50/60Hz.
(Foreign units 234 VAC at 50/60Hz.)
Cables
The speaker cables from the output posts of the SLI 80 to the speaker system can be any convenient
length your set-up requires. Select speaker cables of sufficient size to preserve the outstanding
performance capabilities of your SLI 80. Heavy gauge #16 wire is suitable for distances up to 10 feet;
#12 for 25 feet. Most audio dealers will have proper speaker cable in stock for this purpose.
