Precautions

Before using this unit please read these operating instructions

carefully. Take special care to follow the warnings indicated on the

unit itself as well as the safety suggestions listed below.

Aftenrvards keep them handy lor future reference.

Safety

1. Power Sourca - The unit should be connected to power supply

only of the type described in the operating instructions or as

marked on the unit.

2. Polarization - lf the unit is equipped with a polarized AC power

plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other), that plug will

fit into the AC outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. lf you

are unable to insert the plug lully into the outlet, try reversing the

plug. ll the plug should still lail to fit, contact your electrician to

replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of

the polarized plug.

3. Power Cold Plotection - AC power supply cords should be

routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by

items placed upon or against them. Never take hold of the plug or

cord if your hand is wet, and always grasp the plug body when

connecting or disconnecting it.

4. Nonuse Periods - When the unit is not used, tum the power off.

When left unused for a long period of time, the unit should be

unplugged from the household AC outlet.

Insta!!ation

Environmeht

1. Outdoor Antenna Grounding -- lf an ouiside antenna b

connected to the receiver, be sure the antenna system b

grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage

surges and built-up static charges. Section 810 of the Natbnal

Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1990, provides inlormatbn

with respect to proper grounding of the mast and supportirg

structure, grounding ol the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge

unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna-discharge

unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for

the grounding electrode. See figure below.

2. Wabr ad loisture - Do not use this unit near water-for

exampb, near a bathtub, washbowl, swimming pool, or the like.

Darp basements should also be avoided.

3. Hc.t - The unit should be situated away trom heat sources such

as radabIs and the like.

It abo strould rct be flaced in temperatures less than 5"C (41"F)

Placement

1. Ventilation -- The uln sfiouad be situated so that its location or

position does not interfure rlh ils proper ventilation. Allow 10 cm

(4") clearance from ttp reardthe unit.

2. Foreign Material -- Carc stELS be taken so that objects do not

tall into and liquids are not spfed irto the unit. Do not subject this

unit to excessive smoke, dst ncdanical vibration, or shock.

3. llagnetlsm - The unit should be strrated away lrom equipment

or devices that generate stong ,nagrEtism.

a. $acfhg - Do not place heavy otiecfs, other than system

components, on top of the unit.

Surlace - Place the unit on a flat, level surface.

Carts and Stands - The unit should be used only with a cart or

stand that is recommended by the manufacturer. The unit and

cart combination should be moved with care.

Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven

surfaces may cause the unit and cart combi-

nation to overturn.

7. Wall or Ceiling Mounting - The unit should not be mounted to a

wall or ceiling, unless specified in this operating instructions.

M a i ntena nGe (see pase 76 ror detairs)

-$','r

Clean the cabinet, panel and controls with a soft cloth lightly

moistened rvith mild detergent solution. Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder or solvent

such as alcohol or benzine.

Service

1. Damage Requaring Service -- The unit should be serviced by

qualitied service personnel when:

(a) The AC power supply cord or the plug has been damaged; or

(b) Objects have fallen or liquid has been spilled into the unit; or

(d) The unit does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a

marked change in performance; or

(e) The unit has been dropped, or the enclosure damaged.

2. Servicing - The user should not attempt to service the unil

beyond that described in the operating instruciions. All other

servicing should be refened to qualified service personnel.

Placement of speaker systems

The illustration below is an example when enjoying Dolby Pro-Logic

Surround-sound.

The listening position at which the effect is the greatest is a posi-

lion slightly to the rear of a center position of five-speaker systems.

However the position should be adlusted to your personal

preference, because the eflect varies to some degree depending

upon the type ol music and the music source.

o Even if the amplifier to be used has an output power rating lo*er

than that ol the speaker syslem, the amplifier ou$rt may

become distorted. This "clipping" distortion creates an ex-

cessive input level which can damage the speaker slts{em. This

type ol distortion also occurs, if the input signal to the amplifier is

too large (For example, when excessive equalizatiqr is used.).

. Keep the speakers away from sources of heat, high humidity and

direct sunlight.

The sound reproduced by a speaker is easily influenced by such

lactors as room acoustics and the system's location in the room

Before finally deciding where the speakers are to be placed,

please read the lollowing information carelully.

oThe bass sound will be increased if lhe speakers are placed on

the floor or close to a wall due to the reflection of sound.

It is therefore possible to adjust the bass sound to some extent by

adjusting the speaker's distance from the wall and/or floor.

. Undesirable resonance or sound reflection will occur i, the

speakers face a hard wall or window. Curtains or similar

materials can be used to prevent these reflections.

.To prevent possible acoustic feedback the speaker system

should be kept away from the turntable. Feedback (howling) can

result from vibrations from the speakers. e= ?)

Use of batteries

Do not mix old and new batteries, or batteries of different types

(carbon and alkaline, etc.).

Always remove old, weak or worn-out batteries promptly and

dispose of them properly.

The battery life is about one year.

Although the battery lile varies@pending on how oflen the device

is used, the batteries should be replaced about once every year on

the average.

The batteries should be replaced if commands lrom the remole

control transmitter do not operate the unit even when transmitter is

held close to the front panel.

Never subiect batteries to excessive heat or flame; do not attempt

to disassemble them; and be sure they are not shortcilcuited.

Operation notes

Aim the remote{ontrol's transmission window toward the tuner's

remote control signal receptor. Avoid any obstacles.

Use th mote control within @ degrees and within 6 meters (20

ft,) facing toward the tuner's remote control signal ]eceptor direc-

try.
