Placement precautions
o Place the unit in a stable location near the audio system that you
will use with it.
o Do not install this unit in a location that could become hot.
This includes places that are exposed to direct sunlight or near
a radiator, heater, stove or other heating equipment. Moreover,
do not place it on top of an amplifier or other equipment that
generates heat. Doing so could cause discoloration, deformation
or malfunction.
Also avoid locations that are subject to vibrations or exposed to
excessive dust, cold or moisture.
o When installing this unit, leave a little space (at least 3cm or 1")
between it and walls and other devices in order to allow good
heat dissipation.
If you put it in a rack, for example, leave at least 5cm (2") open
above it and at least 10cm (4") open behind it. Failure to provide
these gaps could cause heat to build up inside and result in fire.
o You may stack this unit with a PD-501HR, NT-505 or other
501/503/505 series units. However, if heat should cause the pro-
tection circuit to be activated and sound output stops suddenly,
place this unit on top and with sufficient distance between it and
walls and other devices in order to improve heat dissipation.
o Do not place CDs, CD-Rs, cassette tapes, other audio equipment
or other items that are susceptible to heat on top of the unit.
Doing so could damage these items.
o Do not put cloth on top of the unit or place the unit on top of
bedding or thick carpets. Doing so could cause the unit to over-
heat and damage it.
o Do not move the unit during use.
o The voltage supplied to the unit should match the voltage
printed on the bottom of the unit. If you are in any doubt regard-
ing this matter, consult an electrician.
o Do not open the body of the unit as this might result in damage
to the circuitry or cause electric shock. If a foreign object should
get into the unit, contact your dealer.
o When removing the power plug from the wall outlet, always pull
directly on the plug; never yank on the cord.

Notes about speaker cables
o Use commercially-available speaker cables to connect the
speakers.
o Use the shortest speaker cables possible. The longer the cable,
the greater the resistance value and the more that damping
performance is reduced. Moreover, length also increases induc-
tance and capacitance, degrading the sound quality of high
frequencies.
o Use left and right speaker cables that have the same length.
V
Precautions when connecting speakers
o Connect the power plugs after all connections have been made.
o Carefully read the manuals of the devices that you are connect-
ing and follow their instructions when making connections.
o When the left and right grounds are shared in a sub woofer
with a built-in amplifier, for example, use might not be possible
depending on connection conditions.
ATTENTION
o This unit supports speakers that have a nominal impedance of
4Ω–16Ω when the output mode is STEREO or BI-AMP and
8Ω–16Ω when BTL. If speakers with lower impedance ratings
are used, the protection circuit could operate, causing sound
output to stop. In some cases, their use could even cause dam-
age to this unit or the speakers.
o This unit’s red terminal is positive (¥) and its black terminal
is negative (^). Generally, the ¥ wire of the speaker cable is
marked to distinguish it from the ^ wire of the cable. Connect
the marked wire to the red ¥ terminal and the unmarked wire
to the black ^ terminal.
o If the exposed end of a core wire in a speaker cable contacts
another cable or terminal, a short could occur.
o Never allow speaker cables to cause a short.
o To prevent hum and noise, avoid bundling the cables together
with the AC power cord or other cables.
Connecting speakers
How to connect speakers
1 Remove about one centimeter (1/2") of insu-
lation from the end of the speaker cable and
twist the core wires well.
2 Turn the terminal cap counterclockwise to
loosen it.
3 Insert the wire into the hole in the terminal
post and turn the terminal cap clockwise to
securely connect it.
o Connect it so that none of the wire insulation is touching
the terminal.
4 Conrm that the cable is fastened securely by
gently pulling the cable.
Connecting with banana plugs
You can also make connections using commercially-available
banana plugs. First, connect the banana plugs to the speaker cables
and then connect the plugs to the terminals.
o Keep the caps tightened when in use.
o Carefully read the instructions for the banana plugs that you are
using.
ATTENTION
Notice about the European model
In accordance with European safety regulations, connecting
banana plugs to speaker terminals is not allowed on European
models.
The holes into which banana plugs could be inserted have been
covered with black caps. Connect speakers using bare wires or
spade lugs.
If a black cap should become separated from its terminal, return
it to its original position.

INSTRUCTIONS DE SÉCURITÉ IMPORTANTES
ATTENTION : POUR RÉDUIRE LE RISQUE
D’ÉLECTROCUTION, NE RETIREZ PAS LE CAPOT (OU
LARRIÈRE). AUCUNE PIÈCE INTERNE N’EST RÉPARABLE
PAR L’UTILISATEUR. CONFIEZ TOUTE RÉPARATION À
UN SERVICE APRÈS-VENTE QUALIFIÉ.
<
Le symbole d’éclair à tête de flèche dans un triangle
équilatéral sert à prévenir l’utilisateur de la présence
dans l’enceinte du produit d’une «tension dangereuse»
non isolée d’une grandeur suffisante pour constituer un
risque d’électrocution pour les personnes.
B
Le point d’exclamation dans un triangle équilatéral
sert à prévenir l’utilisateur de la présence d’instructions
importantes de fonctionnement et de maintenance
(entretien) dans les documents accompagnant l’appareil.
AVERTISSEMENT: POUR PRÉVENIR LES RISQUES
D’INCENDIE ET D’ÉLECTROCUTION, N’EXPOSEZ
PAS CET APPAREIL À LA PLUIE NI À L’HUMIDITÉ.

o NE RETIREZ PAS LES CAPOTS EXTERNES OU BOÎTIERS POUR
EXPOSER L’ÉLECTRONIQUE. AUCUNE PIÈCE INTERNE N’EST
RÉPARABLE PAR L’UTILISATEUR.
o SI VOUS RENCONTREZ DES PROBLÈMES AVEC CE PRODUIT,
CONTACTEZ LE MAGASIN OÙ VOUS AVEZ ACHETÉ L’UNITÉ.
N’UTILISEZ PAS LE PRODUIT TANT QU’IL N’A PAS ÉTÉ RÉPARÉ.
o L’UTILISATION DE COMMANDES, DE RÉGLAGES OU LE SUIVI
DE PROCÉDURES AUTRES QUE CE QUI EST DÉCRIT DANS CE
DOCUMENT PEUT PROVOQUER UNE EXPOSITION À UN
RAYONNEMENT DANGEREUX.
1) Lisez ces instructions.
2) Conservez ces instructions.
3) Tenez compte de tous les avertissements.
4) Suivez toutes les instructions.
5) N’utilisez pas cet appareil avec de l’eau à proximité.
6) Ne nettoyez l’appareil qu’avec un chiffon sec.
7) Ne bloquez aucune ouverture de ventilation. Installez-le confor-
mément aux instructions du fabricant.
8) N’installez pas l’appareil près de sources de chaleur telles que
des radiateurs, bouches de chauffage, poêles ou autres appareils
(y compris des amplificateurs) dégageant de la chaleur.
9) Ne neutralisez pas la fonction de sécurité de la fiche polarisée
ou de terre. Une fiche polarisée a deux broches, l’une plus large
que l’autre. Une fiche de terre a deux broches identiques et une
troisième broche pour la mise à la terre. La broche plus large ou
la troisième broche servent à votre sécurité. Si la fiche fournie
nentre pas dans votre prise, consultez un électricien pour le
remplacement de la prise obsolète.
10) Évitez de marcher sur le cordon d’alimentation et de le pincer,
en particulier au niveau des fiches, des prises secteur, et du
point de sortie de l’appareil.
11) N’utilisez que des fixations/accessoires spécifiés par le fabricant.
12) Utilisez-le uniquement avec des chariots,
socles, trépieds, supports ou tables spécifiés
par le fabricant ou vendus avec l’appareil.
Si un chariot est utilisé, faites attention à ne
pas être blessé par un renversement lors
du déplacement de l’ensemble chariot/
appareil.
13) Débranchez cet appareil en cas d’orage ou de non utilisation
prolongée.
14) Confiez toute réparation à des techniciens de maintenance quali-
fiés. Une réparation est nécessaire si l’appareil a été endommagé
d’une quelconque façon, par exemple si le cordon ou la fiche
d’alimentation est endommagé, si du liquide a été renversé sur
l’appareil ou si des objets sont tombés dedans, si l’appareil a été
exposé à la pluie ou à l’humidité, s’il ne fonctionne pas normale-
ment, ou s’il est tombé.
o L’appareil tire un courant nominal de veille de la prise secteur
quand son interrupteur POWER ou STANDBY/ON nest pas en
position ON.
o La fiche secteur est utilisée comme dispositif de déconnexion et
doit donc toujours rester disponible.
o Des précautions doivent être prises en cas d’utilisation d’écouteurs
ou d’un casque avec le produit car une pression sonore excessive
(volume trop fort) dans les écouteurs ou dans le casque peut cau-
ser une perte auditive.

courant pour que vous puissiez à tout moment attraper facile-
ment la fiche du cordon d’alimentation.
o Si le produit utilise des piles/batteries (y compris un pack de
batteries ou des piles installées), elles ne doivent pas être
exposées au soleil, au feu ou à une chaleur excessive.
o PRÉCAUTION pour les produits qui utilisent des batteries rem-
plaçables au lithium: remplacer une batterie par un modèle
incorrect entraîne un risque d’explosion. Remplacez-les uni-
quement par un type identique ou équivalent.
