How This Manual Is Organized
In this manual we have incorporated some special features:
·
Basic information that is the same for many different functions is grouped in one place, and not repeated in each
procedure. For instance, in the section on playing a CD, we do not repeat the information about setting the
volume and the sound conditions, which are discussed in the Using the Amplifier section.
·
Name of buttons and controls are written in all capital letters like this: SOUND MODE.
IMPORTANT CAUTIONS
1. Installation of the unit
·
Select a place which is level, dry and neither too hot nor too cold. (Between 5°C and 35°C or 41°F and 95°F.)
·
Leave sufficient distance between the unit and a TV.
·
Do not use the unit in a place subject to vibrations.
2. Power cord
·
Do not handle the power cord with wet hands!

Some power (15 watts) is always consumed as long as the power cord is connected to the wall outlet.

When unplugging the unit from the wall outlet, always pull the plug, not the power cord.
3. Malfunctions, etc.
