Cary Rocket 88's Cat Eyes

I'm wondering if anyone can tell me about those cat eyes on the front panel. I'm wondering why I have to crank the volume all the way and can still barely hear it. Everything is plugged properly and still no volume. The manual says:
GREEN (CAT)EYES: INDICATE AUDIO POWER OUTPUT,FULLY CLOSED EYE FOR MAXIMUM POWER.
It's brand new.Do I have to wait for power to increase? First time I've seen this.
Any help would be appreciated...
Thanks

have you checked the fuses for the power output tubes?

I'd probably stop trying to use it for now, & call Cary Monday morning. And the dealer.

Do both of your Bias LEDs lite up? If not; your output tube bias is not properly adjusted(a possibilty, if the 1/2A, fast-blo B+ fuses are both good).
