radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other devices (including
amplifiers) that produce heat.

The unit should be connected to a power-supply outlet only of
the voltage and frequency marked on its rear panel.

The power-supply cord should be routed so that it is not likely
to be walked on or pinched, especially near the plug,

are not spilled, into the enclosure through any openings.

The unit should be serviced by qualified service personnel when:
A. The power cord or the plug has been damaged; or
B. Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled, into the

unit; or

C. The unit has been exposed to rain, or liquids of any kind; or
D. The unit does not appear to operate normally, or exhibits a

marked change in performance; or

E. The device has been dropped, or the enclosure damaged.

To prevent electric shock, do not use the polarized plug with
an extension cord, receptacle or other outlet unless the
blades can be fully inserted to prevent blade exposure.

CAUTION: 

To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not

remove the cover (or back). No user serviceable parts inside.
Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.

WARNING: 

To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do

not expose this appliance to rain or moisture.

The lightning flash with arrowhead, within an
equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the
user to the presence of uninsulated “dangerous
voltage” within the product’s enclosure that
may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a
risk of electrical shock to persons. 

The exclamation point within an equilateral
triangle is intended to alert the user to the
presence of important operation maintenance
(servicing) instructions in the literature
7accompanying the appliance.

PRECAUTIONS:

Certain precautions must be taken in order to ensure proper
operation of your preamplifier-processor.

1. Never expose the unit to moisture

2. Never plug an input cable into the preamplifier while the

preamplifier is turned on.

3. Never apply the “thumb test” (touching the “hot” lead of

the input cable with your finger) to the tip of the input
cable or input jack of the preamplifier. RF rectification
and/or hum may be created and could cause damage to the
loudspeakers. ATI will not be responsible for damage to
the loudspeakers, amplifiers or other related equipment
due to improper use of the equipment.

4. Avoid restricting the airflow around the unit. Good

airflow is necessary to help insure proper operation.

5. Do not stack other system components or any other

materials directly on top of the unit. The heat dissipating
system of the preamplifier depends on free flowing air
around the chassis.
