[] BEFORE USING

Pay attention to the following before using this unit:

• Moving the set

To prevent short circuits or damaged wires in the connection

cords, always unplug the power cord and disconnect the

connection cords between all other audio components when

moving the set.

• Before turning the power operation switch on

Check once again that all connections are proper and that there are

not problems with the connection cords. Always set the power

operation switch to the standby position before connecting and

disconnecting connection cords.

• Store this instructions in a safe place.

After reading, store this instructions along with the warranty in a

safe place

• Note that the illustrations in this instructions may differ from

the actual set for explanation purposes.

[] CAUTIONS ON INSTALLATION

Noise or disturbance of the picture may be generated if this unit or

any other electronic equipment using microprocessors is used near a

tuner or TV.

If this happens, take the following steps:

• Install this unit as far as possible from the tuner or TV

• Set the antenna wires from the tuner or TV away from this unit's

power cord and input/output connection cords.

• Noise or disturbance tends to occur particularly when using indoor

antennas or 300 £_/ohms feeder wires. We recommend using

outdoor antennas and 75 £_/ohms coaxial cables.

For heat dispersal, leave at least 10 cm of space between the

top, back and sides of this unit and the wall or other compo-

nents.

[] CAUTIONS ON HANDLING

• Switching the input function when input jacks are not

connected

A clickhTg noise may be produced if the input function is switched

when nothing is connected to the input jacks. If this happens,

either turn down the VOLUME control or connect components to

the input jacks.

• Muting of PRE OUT jacks

The PRE OUT iacks include a muting circuit Because of this, the

output signals are greatly reduced for several seconds after the

power operation switch is turned on

If the volume is turned up during this time, the output will be very

high after the muting circuit stops functioning. Always wait until

the muting circuit turns off before adjusting the volume

• Whenever the power operation switch is in the STANDBY

state, the apparatus is still connected on some AC line

voltages.

Please be sure to unplug the cord when you leave home for,

say, a vacation.

[] FEATURES

1. Multi Room Music Entertainment System

Multi Source Function:

This unit's Multi Source function lets you select different audio

or video sources for viewing or listening Different sources can

thus be enjoyed in the main room and the subroom

simultaneously This novel feature gives you considerable

flexibility when setting up and enjoying your system with the

this unit. The output level, adjustable by the remote

commander, is as much as lV, enough to operate the optional

power amplifier placed in a subroom

Note to CATV system installer:

This reminder is provided to call the CAT\! system installer's attention to

Art cle 82040 of the NEC which provides guidelines for proper

grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground snail be

connected to the ground ng system of the building, as close to the point

of cable entry as practical

NOTES:

• DO not connect two FM antennas simLfltaneously

• Even if an external AM antenna is used, do not disconnect AM loop

antenna

• Make sure AM loop antenna lead terminaB do not touch metal parts of

the panel

• Connect the speaker terminals with the speakers making sure that

like polarities are matched (_ with (_, e with e) Mismatching of

polarities will result in weak central sound, unclear orientation of

the vanous instruments, and the sense of direction of the stereo

being impaired

• When making connections, take care that none of the individual

conductors of the speaker cord come in contact with adjacent

terminals, with other speaker cord conductors, or with the rear

panel

NOTE:

NEVER touch the speaker terminals when the power is on.

Doing so could result in electric shocks.

Speaker Impedance

• When speaker systems A and B are use separately, speakers with

an impedance of 4 to I6 £_/ohms can be connected for use as

speakers

• Be careful when using two pairs of speakers {A + B) at the same

time, since use of speakers with an impedance of 8 to 16 £_/ohms

• The protector circuit may be activated if the set is played for long

periods of time at high volumes when speakers with an

impedance lower than the specified impedance are connected

disturbed by the speaker's magnetism¸ If

this should happen, move the speaker

away to a position where it does not have

this effect¸

[SPEAKER SYSTEMS1 ISPEAKERSYSTEMS ]

System B System A

m m

• This unit is equipped with a high-speed protection circuit. This circuit protects the internal circuitry from damage due to

large currents flowing if the speaker jacks are not completely connected or if an output is generated by a short circuit.

In such a case, the protection circuit will operate to cut off the output to the speakers. Should this happen, turn the

power off and check the speaker connections. Then turn the power on again. After muting for several seconds, the

receiver should be operating normally.

If the protection circuit is activated again even though there are no problems with the wiring or the ventilation around

the unit, switch off the power and contact a DENON service center.

• The protector circuit may be activated if the set is played for long periods of time at high volumes when speakers with

an impedance lower than the specified impedance (for example speakers with an impedance of lower than 4 £)/ohms)

are connected. If the protector circuit is activated, the speaker output is cut off. Turn off the set's power, wait for the set

to cool down, improve the ventilation around the set, then turn the power back on.
