Before use

Safety precautions

Placement

Set the unit up on an even surface away from direct

sunlight, high temperatures, high humidity, and excessive

vibration. These conditions can damage the cabinet and

other components, thereby shortening the unit’s service life.

Place it at least 15 cm away from wall surfaces to avoid

distortion and unwanted acoustical effects.

Do not place heavy items on the unit.

Voltage

Do not use high voltage power sources. This can

overload the unit and cause a fire.

Do not use a DC power source. Check the source

carefully when setting the unit up on a ship or other place

where DC is used.

AC mains lead protection

Ensure the AC mains lead is connected correctly and not

damaged. Poor connection and lead damage can cause fire

or electric shock. Do not pull, bend, or place heavy items on

the lead.

Grasp the plug firmly when unplugging the lead. Pulling

the AC mains lead can cause electric shock.

Do not handle the plug with wet hands. This can cause

electric shock.

Foreign matter

Do not let metal objects fall inside the unit. This can cause

electric shock or malfunction.

Do not let liquids get into the unit. This can cause electric

shock or malfunction. If this occurs, immediately disconnect

the unit from the power supply and contact your dealer.

Do not spray insecticides onto or into the unit. They

contain flammable gases which can ignite if sprayed into the

unit.

Service

Do not attempt to repair this unit by yourself. If sound is

interrupted, indicators fail to light, smoke appears, or any

other problem that is not covered in these instructions

occurs, disconnect the AC mains lead and contact your

dealer or an authorized service center. Electric shock or

damage to the unit can occur if the unit is repaired,

disassembled or reconstructed by unqualified persons.

Extend operating life by disconnecting the unit from the

power source if it is not to be used for a long time.

A Battery installation

Use of batteries

• Align the poles (+ and –) properly when inserting the

batteries.

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

batteries.

• Do not recharge ordinary dry cell batteries.

• Do not heat or disassemble the batteries. Do not allow

them to contact flame or water.

• Remove the batteries if the unit is not to be used for a long

time.

• Do not keep together with metallic objects such as

necklaces.

• Do not use rechargeable type batteries.

with any part of your body.

B Correct method of use

Operation notes

• Do not place obstacles between the remote control signal

sensor and remote control unit.

• Do not expose the remote control signal sensor to direct

sunlight or to the bright light of a fluorescent light.

• Take care to keep the remote control signal sensor and

the end of the remote control unit free from dust.

• If this system is installed in a rack with glass doors, the

glass doors’ thickness or color might make it necessary to

use the remote control unit a shorter distance from the

system.

To prevent damage

• Do not place heavy items on the remote control.

• Do not disassemble or reconstruct.

• Do not spill water or other liquids on the remote control.

Placement of speakers

Speakers are designed identically so that no left or right

channel orientation is necessary.

Notes

• Keep your speakers at least 10 mm away from the system

for proper ventilation.

• These speakers do not have magnetic shielding. Do not

place them near televisions, personal computers or other

devices easily influenced by magnetism.

• To avoid damage to the speakers, do not touch the

speaker cones if you have taken the nets off.

twist the vinyl cover tip and pull off.

1 Connect the FM indoor antenna.

Tape the antenna to a wall or column, in a position

where radio signals are received with the least amount

of interference.

Note

For the best reception:

An FM outdoor antenna is recommended. (\ page 7)

2 Connect the AM loop antenna.

Stand the antenna up on its base. Keep loose antenna

cord away from other wires and cords.

Cords with red and black tags are for low frequency.

Incorrect connection can damage the unit.

Caution

Use only the supplied speakers.

The combination of the main unit and speakers provide

the best sound. Using other speakers can damage the

unit and sound quality will be negatively affected.

Caution

• Use the speakers only with the recommended

system.

Failure to do so may lead to damage to the

amplifier and/or the speakers, and may result

in the risk of fire. Consult a qualified service

person if damage has occurred or if you

experience a sudden change in performance.
