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 10 cm (4 in.) clearance from the rear and the top of the unit, and 5 cm (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 power plugs 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.

DOLBY SURROUND

This unit is equipped with the Dolby Pro Logic decoder and also supports the Dolby Digital decoder with the 5.1 ch output terminals.

The unit and the center and surround speakers (standard) assure full-scale home theater sound. When playing back discs or video software that have been recorded in Dolby Pro Logic or Dolby Digital Surround, astonishingly realistic sound surrounds the listener to create a new level of audio/visual entertainment.

Independent control of the five channels allows the listener to enjoy the same type of sound reproduction experienced in movie theaters. Voices are reproduced in the front and center sound field, while ambient sounds like cars and crowds are reproduced on all sides of the listener for an incredibly lifelike audio/video experience. Please read the following carefully to "tune" the system's output to match the characteristics of your listening space.

Check the following:

• Before enjoying the DOLBY SURROUND sound, adjust the proper balance of the speaker sound levels (see page 16).
• Make sure the speakers are properly connected and positioned (see pages 3, 4 and 5).
• Make sure the TV set and video unit are properly connected (see page 3).
  • Make sure the disc and video tape, etc., support Dolby Pro Logic or Dolby Digital Surround.

SELECTING DOLBY PRO LOGIC

The optimal Dolby Pro Logic mode depends on the type and placement of the speakers. It is recommended that the optional Aiwa speakers should be used for all channels, for example, the SX-R1700 for surround speakers, the SX-C1700 for a center speaker and the SX-AV1700 for front speakers. Check your current type and placement of the speakers and select the recommended Dolby Pro Logic mode accordingly.

The recommended mode

	Center speaker
	Larger-size	Smaller-size	No speaker
Surround speaker (Rear speaker)	DOLBY PRO LOGIC-WIDE	DOLBY PRO LOGIC-NORMAL	PHANTOM
No surround speaker	3 STEREO-WIDE	3 STEREO-NORMAL	-

PHANTOM mode: Select this mode when the center speaker is not connected. All center channel signals are redistributed to the left and right channel speakers.

3 STEREO mode: Select this mode when the surround speakers are not connected.

1 Press the DOLBY SURROUND button, and turn the MULTI JOG to select the appropriate mode.

The mode names are displayed in the order as shown below.

DANCE LIVE CHAIN ARENA ROCK POP JAZI GLASSIO BGM PRO LOGIC WHY DRUGIC PRO LOGIC → PHANTOM → 3 STEREO

2 Press the DOLBY SURROUND button again and hold it down until the center speaker mode to be selected appears. (Except the PHANTOM mode.)

“NORMAL” and “WIDE” appear one after the other.

NOTE

• Depending on the sound source or listening condition, surround effect may not be obtained even when the Dolby Pro Logic is set to on.

• The full Dolby Pro Logic effect cannot be obtained when using the software without ☐☐(DOLBY SURROUND) mark. In this case, use the DSP surround system instead (see page 10).
  • The Dolby Pro Logic system is automatically canceled:

• when the DSP system is turned on

• when the GEQ system is turned on
• when the 5.1 CH function is selected
• when headphones are plugged in
• The Dolby Pro Logic cannot be set to on while headphones are plugged in.

The unit is equipped with a built-in test signal generator called a noise sequencer for easy balance adjustment of all five channels. The sequencer outputs a noise signal that "travels" from channel to channel, enabling the simple adjustment of sound level to achieve the same apparent loudness, at your listening position, from each channel.

1 Select the Dolby Pro Logic mode according to your current type and placement of the speakers. (See page 15.)
2 Press the MANUAL SELECT button on the remote control and hold it down for about two seconds until "L" of "L/R 0dB" starts to flash.

DANCE LIVE HALL ARENA LOCK CPOJ JAZI CLASSIC BCM L/R 0dB BARRY PROTTUCE

A noise signal is sent to each channel in turn as follows:

DOLBY PRO LOGIC NORMAL or WIDE mode

graph TD
    A["L/R 0dB (Left front speaker)*1"] --> B["CEN 0dB (Center speaker)"]
    B --> C["L/R 0dB (Right front speaker)*1"]
    C --> D["S-R 0dB (Right surround speaker)*2"]
    D --> E["S-L 0dB (Left surround speaker)*2"]

*1 "L" or "R" flashes to indicate one of the front speakers from which the noise signal is output.

*2 The noise signal is output from the L and R surround speakers at the same time.

3 Adjust the sound level of the center and surround speakers.

While "CEN", "S-L" or "S-R" flashes in the display, press the UP or DOWN button on the remote control so that the sound level of the center or surround speakers matches that of the front speakers.

The balance of the front speakers can be adjusted as well while "L/R" is displayed.

4 Press the MANUAL SELECT button again to stop the noise signal.

NOTE

When adjusting the speakers level balance of the Dolby Pro Logic, those of the DSP and 5.1 CH modes are also changed.

About the channels

The left and right speakers create the stereo effect.

The center speaker helps achieve precise sound positioning over a broad sound field.

The rear-mounted surround speakers enhance the "depth" of the sound field.

To change the surround speakers delay time of the Dolby Pro Logic mode

The surround speakers reproduce sounds a split second after the front speakers. The delay is initially set to 20 ms (milliseconds).

To change this standard delay time, press the MANUAL SELECT button on the remote control repeatedly so that "TIME20mS" is displayed. Then, press the UP or DOWN button. Each time one of the buttons is pressed, the delay time changes as shown below.

To adjust the speakers level balance while listening to the source (Dolby Pro Logic and 5.1 CH modes)

The speakers level balance can be changed after adjusting it with the noise sequencer. The balance can be changed whenever the Dolby Pro Logic system is turned on or the 5.1 CH function is selected.

1 Play a disc or video software recorded in Dolby Pro Logic or Dolby Digital Surround.

2 Press the MANUAL SELECT button on the remote control repeatedly so that "L/R", "CEN", "S-L", "S-R" or "S-W" (for sub woofer in 5.1 CH mode) appears on the display.

3 Press the UP or DOWN button while the speaker name to be adjusted is displayed.
