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 Ω/ohms feeder wires. We
recommend using outdoor antennas and 75 Ω/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 components.

CAUTIONS ON HANDLING

• Switching the input function when input jacks
are not connected
A clicking 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
MASTER VOLUME control or connect components
to the input jacks.
• Muting of PRE OUT jacks, HEADPHONE jack and
SPEAKER terminals
The PRE OUT jacks, HEADPHONE jack and SPEAKER
terminals include a muting circuit. Because of this,
the output signals are greatly reduced for several
ENGLISH
• 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.
10 cm or more
seconds after the power switch is turned on or input
function, surround mode or any other-set-up is
changed. 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 switch is in the STANDBY
state, the apparatus is still connected on AC line
voltage.
Please be sure to unplug the cord when you
leave home for, say, a vacation.
