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
The SLP 98 is designed for use inside homes. It must be protected from the elements and
temperature extremes. For example, avoid placing the unit in extremely hot locations such as
near radiators or other
heating units. Its location among the user’s audio components is not
critical; however, certain precautions must be taken.
Power Requirements
The SLP 98 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 interconnect cables from the output jacks of the SLP 98 to the input jacks on the basic
amplifiers can be any convenient length your set-up requires. The choice of a high quality
interconnect cable is important. Most audio dealers will have proper speaker cable in stock for
this purpose.
