PRECAUTIONS
Read the Operating Instructions carefully and completely before operating the unit. Be sure to keep the Operating Instructions for future reference. All warnings and cautions in the Operating Instructions and on the unit should be strictly followed, as well as the safety suggestions below.
Installation
1 Water and moisture — Do not use this unit near water, such as near a bathtub, washbowl, swimming pool, or the like.
2 Heat — Do not use this unit near heat sources, including heating vents, stoves, or other appliances that generate heat. It also should not be placed in temperatures less than 5^ (41^) or higher than 35^ (95^) .
3 Mounting surface - Place the unit on a flat, even surface.
4 Ventilation — The unit should be situated with adequate space around it so that proper heat ventilation is assured. Allow 10cm (4 in.) clearance from the rear and the top of the unit, and 5cm (2 in.) from each side.
- Do not place the unit on a bed, rug, or similar surface that may block the ventilation openings.
- Do not install the unit in a bookcase, cabinet, or airtight rack where ventilation may be impeded.
5 Objects and liquid entry — Take care that objects or liquids do not get inside the unit through the ventilation openings.
6 Carts and stands — When placed or mounted on a stand or cart, the unit should be moved with care.
Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the unit or cart to overturn or fall.
7 Wall or ceiling mounting — The unit should not be mounted on a wall or ceiling, unless specified in the Operating Instructions.
Electric Power
1 Power sources — Connect this unit only to power sources specified in the Operating Instructions, and as marked on the unit.
2 Polarization — As a safety feature, some units are equipped with polarized AC power plugs which can only be inserted one way into a power outlet. If it is difficult or impossible to insert the AC power plug into an outlet, turn the plug over and try again. If it is not still inserted easily into the outlet, please call a qualified service technician to service or replace the outlet. To avoid defeating the safety feature of the polarized plug, do not force it into a power outlet.
3 AC power cord
- When disconnecting the AC power cord, pull it out by the AC power plug. Do not pull the cord itself.
- Never handle the AC power plug with wet hands, as this could result in fire or shock.
- Power cords should be firmly secured to avoid being severely bent, pinched, or walked upon. Pay particular attention to the cord from the unit to the power socket.
- Avoid overloading AC outlets and extension cords beyond their capacity, as this could result in fire or shock.
4 Extension cord — To help prevent electric shock, do not use a polarized AC power plug with an extension cord, receptacle, or other outlet unless the polarized plug can be completely inserted to prevent exposure of the blades of the plug.
5 When not in use — Unplug the AC power cord from the AC power outlet if the unit will not be used for several months or more. When the cord is plugged in, a small amount of current continues to flow to the unit, even when the power is turned off.
Outdoor Antenna
1 Power lines — When connecting an outdoor antenna, make sure it is located away from power lines.
2 Outdoor antenna grounding — Be sure the antenna system is properly grounded to provide protection against unexpected voltage surges or static electricity build-up. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA70, provides information on proper grounding of the mast, supporting structure, and the lead-in wire to the antenna discharge unit, as well as the size of the grounding unit, connection to grounding terminals, and requirements for grounding terminals themselves.
Antenna Grounding According to the National Electrical Code
NEC-NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE
Maintenance
Clean the unit only as recommended in the Operating Instructions.
Damage Requiring Service
Have the unit serviced by a qualified service technician if:
- The AC power cord or plug has been damaged
- Foreign objects or liquid have gotten inside the unit
- The unit has been exposed to rain or water
- The unit does not seem to operate normally
- The unit exhibits a marked change in performance
- The unit has been dropped, or the cabinet has been damaged
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO SERVICE THE UNIT YOURSELF.

CONNECTIONS
Before connecting the AC cord
The rated voltage of your unit shown on the rear panel is 120V AC. Check that the rated voltage matches your local voltage.
IMPORTANT
Connect the speakers, antennas, and all other external equipment first. Then connect the AC cord at the end.
CONNECTING EQUIPMENT
Jacks and plugs of the connecting cord are color-coded as follows:
Red jacks and plugs : For the right channel of audio signals White jacks and plugs: For the left channel of audio signals Yellow jacks and plugs: For video signals
NOTE
Insert the plugs fully into the jacks. Loose connections may produce a humming sound or other noise interference.
1 Be sure to connect the VIDEO OUT terminal of a DVD player directly to a TV set, not through this unit. Otherwise, the picture noise may appear when playing copy protected DVDs.
2 When connecting a monaural video, use a stereo-mono connecting cord (not supplied).
DVD or Video 1^*2 /MD player
① and ② in the illustration correspond to the following details.
Connect front speakers (system A and/or B) and sub woofer to the corresponding speaker terminals on the unit:
- the front speaker cords to the SPEAKERS terminals
- for more powerful bass, the sub woofer (with a built-in amplifier) cord to the SUB WOOFER jack
Speaker impedance
For all speakers, use speakers of 8 ohms or more.
Connecting ^+ to +, -to- terminals
To get the proper sound effect, the speaker terminals on the unit and the speaker should be connected with proper polarity; the + terminal on the unit should be connected to the + terminal on the speaker (and - to -).
NOTE
- The subwoofer sound will be output only when the speaker system A (the front speakers connected to the SPEAKERS A terminals) is selected.
- Be sure to connect the speaker cords correctly as shown in the illustration on the right column. Improper connections can cause short circuits in the SPEAKERS terminals.
- Do not leave objects generating magnetism near the speakers.
Lift up the terminal flap, insert the speaker cord lead into the terminal slot, then close the flap. Check that the cord is connected securely.
CONNECTING THE SUPPLIED ANTENNAS ②
Connect the FM antenna to the FM 75 terminals and the AM antenna to the AM LOOP terminals.
To stand the AM loop antenna on a surface
Fix the claw to the slot as shown in the illustration.
To position the antennas
FM feeder antenna:
Extend this antenna horizontally in a T shape and fix its ends to the wall.
AM loop antenna:
Position for the best reception.
NOTE
- Do not bring the FM antenna near metal objects or curtain rails.
- Do not bring the AM antenna near other external equipment, the unit itself, the AC power cord or speaker cords, as noise will be picked up.
- Do not unwind the AM loop antenna wire.
CONNECTING AN OUTDOOR ANTENNA
For better FM reception, use of an outdoor antenna is recommended. Connect the outdoor antenna to the FM 75Ω terminals.
ABOUT THE REMOTE CONTROL
Inserting batteries
Detach the battery cover on the rear of the remote control and insert two R6 (size AA) batteries.
