FCC INFORMATION This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. CAUTION : Any changes or modifications in construction of this device which are not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment. Caution regarding placement (Except for U.S.A. and Canada) To maintain proper ventilation, be sure to leave a space around the unit (from the largest outer dimensions including projections) equal to, or greater than, shown below. Left and right panels: 5 cm Rear panel: 10 cm Top panel: 20 cm Congratulations on Your Purchase! Your new high fidelity receiver is designed to deliver maximum enjoyment and years of trouble free service. Please take a few moments to read this manual thoroughly. It will explain the features and operation of your unit and help ensure a trouble free installation. Please unpack your unit carefully. We recommend that you save the carton and packing material. They will be helpful if you ever need to move your unit and may be required if you ever need to return it for service. Your unit is designed to be placed in a horizontal position and it is important to allow at least two inches of space behind your unit for adequate ventilation and cabling convenience. To avoid damage, never place the unit near radiators, in front of heating vents, in direct sunlight, or in excessively humid or dusty locations. Connect your complementary components as illustrated in the following section. CAUTION RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT OPEN CAUTION : TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK). NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE. REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL. This symbol is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated "dangerous voltage" within the product's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons. This symbol is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance. WARNING To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this appliance to rain or moisture. Caution : Do not block ventilation openings or stack other equipment on the top. 2 READ THIS BEFORE OPERATING FOR U.S.A. AND CANADA ......................................120 V FOR OTHER COUNTRIES ........................... 115 V/230 V FOR YOUR SAFETY Units shipped to the U.S.A. and Canada are designed for operation on 120 Volts AC only. Observe all safety precautions for use of a polarized AC plug. However, some products may be supplied with a non polarized plug. CAUTION: To prevent electric shock, match wide blade of plug to wide slot, insert fully. FOR YOUR SAFETY Units shipped to countries other than the above countries are equipped with an AC voltage selector switch on the rear panel. Refer to the following paragraph for the proper setting of this switch. AC VOLTAGE SELECTION This unit operates on 115/230 V AC. The AC voltage selector switch on the rear panel is set to the voltage that prevails in the area to which the unit is shipped. Before connecting the power cord to your AC outlet, make sure that the setting position of this switch matches your line voltage. If not, it must be set to your voltage in accordance with the following direction. AC voltage selector switch FOR EUROPE AND AUSTRALIA ..........230 V/240 V FOR YOUR SAFETY Units shipped to Australia are designed for operation on 240 V AC only. To ensure safe operation, the three-pin plug supplied must be inserted only into a standard three-pin power point which is effectively earthed through the normal household wiring. Extension cords used with the equipment must be three-core and be correctly wired to provide connection to earth. Improper extension cords are a major cause of fatalities. The fact that the equipment operates satisfactorily does not imply that the power point is earthed and that the installation is completely safe. For your safety, if in any doubt about the effective earthing of the power point, consult a qualified electrician.

When making connections between components, please be sure to connect the white RCA plugs to the L (left) and the red RCA plugs to the R (right) jacks respectively. Change the position of the FM indoor antenna until you get the best possible reception of your favorite FM stations. A 75 Ohm outdoor FM antenna may be used to further improve the reception. Disconnect the indoor antenna before connecting the outdoor antenna. Place the AM loop antenna as far as possible from the receiver, TV set, speaker cords and the AC input cord and set it to a direction for the best reception. If the reception is poor with the AM loop antenna, an AM outdoor antenna can be used in place of the AM loop antenna. Make all connections firmly and correctly. Failure to do so can cause loss of sound, noise or damage to the receiver. If the electricity fails or the AC cord is left unplugged for about two weeks, all operating parameters in the unit's memory will be lost. Should this happen, you must enter them again. CONNECTING ANTENNAS FM (OUTDOOR ANTENNA) FM (INDOOR ANTENNA) AM loop antenna This device complies with Par t 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1)This device may not cause har mful interference, and (2)this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
