WARNINGS
Your preamplifier has been factory set to the correct mains voltage for your country. The voltage setting is
marked on the serial badge, located on the rear panel. Check that this complies with your local supply.
Export units for certain markets have a moulded mains plug fitted to comply with local requirements. If your unit
does not have a plug fitted the coloured wires should be connected to the appropriate plug terminals in accordance
with the following code.
GREEN/YELLOW

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead may not correspond with the coloured marking identifying the
terminals in your plug proceed as follows;
The wire which is coloured GREEN/YELLOW must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked by
the letter E or by the safety earth symbol or coloured GREEN or GREEN and YELLOW.
The wire which is coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked by the letter N
or coloured BLACK.
The wire which is coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked by the letter L

WATER & MOISTURE
As with any electrical equipment, these preamplifiers should not be used near water or moisture. If liquid enters the
preamplifier, it must be immediately returned to your dealer or the factory for servicing.
SERVICING
The user should not attempt to service the preamplifier beyond that described in the owner's manual. Refer all servicing
other than biasing and tube replacement to Manley Laboratories
SPECIAL NOTES
Tubes may become loose during transit. Straighten and press down each tube before plugging the preamplifier into the
mains socket. Furthermore, do not touch the tubes after the preamplifier has been switched on, as the tubes become very
hot during operation and should only be handled after the power has been turned off and the tubes have cooled.
