Voltage Conversion
(General export models only)
Be sure to remove the power cord from the AC outlet before
repositioning the voltage converter switch.
1. Locate the voltage selector on the rear panel.
2. Using a flat-bladed screwdriver, set to the appropriate
230V or 120V position according to your area.
IN NORTH AMERICA USE ONLY ON 120 V SUPPLY.

Bias Current Adjustment
1. Turn the unit on, and set the input selector switch to "CD".
2. Set 7VR1 and 7VR2 to the center position.
3. Connect the DC voltmeter as shown below after preheating for
10 minutes, and adjust 7VR1 (Lch) so that the voltage
becomes 3.3 1.3mV.
4. Adjust 7VR2 (Rch) in the same way.
