Muting the Pre 2L is achieved by placing the
Mute/Operate button (J) in the MUTE position (button
depressed); the output signal is then cut off. To resume
listening, place the button in the OPERATE position (not
depressed).
It is recommended that you shut OFF the main power via the
Power Switch (K) when not listening.

If at any time the Pre 2L fails to work properly, consult this
checklist:
1. Check that the AC Detachable Power Cord is plugged into
the Pre 2L Detachable Power Cord Socket (P) and is connected
to a live source of AC power. For instance, if using a power
bar, check that the bar is turned on.
2. Ensure that all Input and Output connections are secure for
a proper electrical contact.
3. DISCONNECT THE AC POWER CORD, wait 5 minutes, and
check that:
• A slo-blo fuse, with a rating of 0.8 Amp/250 V (0.4 Amp/250
V for European and Asian versions), is installed in the fuse holder
directly under the removable IEC power cord socket.
• The AC power fuse is intact and has not blown. If the fuse
has blown, the thin metal conductor will have melted and the
glass may appear “smoked”. If the fuse has blown, replace
with a fuse of the same rating (0.8 Amp/250V slow-blo for
100 to 120 volt countries and 0.4 Amp/250V slow-blo for 200
to 240 volt countries). (See Figure 9)
NOTE: Under no circumstances should you replace the
power fuse with one of a higher current rating! Doing so
cause further damage to the Pre 2L and will also void th
warranty. In addition, your continued protection from ris
fire or shock would be seriously compromised.
• Ensure the tubes are plugged firmly into their sockets
described in “INSERTION OF THE TUBES”.
5. Be sure the rest of the system is functioning properly
(i.e. source unit, cables and connections, loudspeakers
6. With tubes, fuses, covers and power cords in place,
that the LED (H) is lit (glowing light green). If all of the a
troubleshooting steps have been followed and the LED
lit (remains dark green), contact your dealer or distribut
assistance.
