Narrative:
IFR clearance was to climb and maintain 3000 ft after takeoff. During cockpit setup, takeoff brief and taxi, the crew was interrupted several times by ATC. Altitude preselect was set to 5000 ft, not 3000 ft. After departure and climbing through 3300 ft, ATC advised us to maintain 3000 ft. No aircraft conflicts.
