Getting Started
Unpacking the TL5.5 from its box
1.
The VTL TL5.5 Preamplifier is shipped in 1
carton and the unit is wrapped in thick plastic.
The plastic is not strong enough to support the
unit, and may tear if you try to lift the unit out of the box with it. Also
there are protruding switches and connectors which could break if the unit
is not properly handled, and in addition to the awkward, unbalanced heavy
load the unit has sharp edges and a cleaning polish on it, which makes it
slippery and hard to grasp.
2.
When lifting the unit, be sure to only lift it from the bottom of the unit
with both hands. Be careful not to break any switches or to rest the unit on
any other side than the bottom side on the four feet on a stable surface.
Setting it on any other side may damage protruding components.
SAVE THE CARTON AND ALL PACKAGING FOR ANY FUTURE
SHIPMENT OF THE TL5.5.
After you open the carton you should find the following items inside:
•
The preamplifier
•
1 standard power cord for the electrical system in your country
•
The remote control hand-held unit with two AAA batteries
•
This Owner’s Manual, Quick Reference Sheet, VTL Quality Assurance and test
printout, and a VTL product warranty registration card
Remove each item from its packaging material and check to make sure that no physical
damage has occurred during shipment of the unit. There should be no rattles inside either
the preamplifier chassis or remote control units. Look through the vent slots and check to
see that the tubes appear properly seated in their sockets. Contact your VTL dealer
immediately if physical damage is detected.
