INSTALLATION _____________________________________________________
This section describes the unpacking and installation procedures for your new component.
Unpacking
All Cary Audio Design shipping crates 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 component 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 CAD 211 FE is designed for use in 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. Avoid moisture, direct sunlight, and dusty areas.
Power Requirements
The CAD 211 FE is designed to operate from house current AC mains. The design voltage is 117 Volts AC
at 50/60Hz (Foreign units 234 Volts AC at 50/60Hz).
Speaker Cables
The speaker cables from the output posts of the CAD 211 FE to the speaker system can be any length that
your setup requires. Select speaker cables of sufficient size to preserve the outstanding performance
capabilities and sound quality of your new power amplifiers.
Heavy duty #14 gauge wire is suitable for distances up to 15 feet; #10 gauge is good for 25-30 feet. Most
audio dealers have high performance speaker cable in stock for this purpose. We strongly urge you to try
several types to find the best ones for your combination of components and speakers.
