Carefully inspect your new unit and
check for shipping damage. If there is
any damage, or if any piece is miss-
ing, please contact your dealer, dis-
tributor or Bel Canto Design. 

Save all packing materials as the
packing is specially designed to pro-
tect the amplifier for shipping or
transporting it. If you lose or damage
the packing materials or carton,
please contact your dealer or distrib-
utor before attempting to transport
the preamplifier.

The REF1000’s power supply is pre-
set for the proper AC line voltage
before you receive it. The power
cable will have the correct plug for
your local power system. If you
believe this is not true, please con-
tact your dealer immediately. Do not
attempt to alter or change power
settings yourself. This will void the
warranty.
