Cooling fan*
Ventilateur de refroidissement*
* About the cooling fan
A cooling fan is mounted on the rear panel of the unit to prevent abnormal temperature inside the unit, thus assuring normal operation of the
unit. The cooling fan automatically starts rotating to intake external cool air when the volume is increased up to more than a certain level.
* À propos du ventilateur de refroidissement
Un ventilateur de refroidissement se trouve sur le panneau arrière de l'appareil afin d'éviter la création d'une température anormale à l'intérieur
de l'appareil et permettre ainsi un fonctionnement normal de l'appareil. Le ventilateur de refroidissement commence à tourner et à aspirer de
l'air frais automatiquement quand le volume est augmenté au-dessus d'un certain niveau.

Introduction
About This Manual
This manual is organized as follows:
· The manual mainly explains operations using the
buttons and controls on the unit. You can also use the
buttons on the remote control if they have the same or
similar names (or marks) as those on the unit.
If operation using the remote control is different from
that using the unit, it is then explained.
· Basic and common information that is the same for many
functions is grouped in one place, and is not repeated in
each procedure. For instance, we do not repeat the
information about turning on/off the unit, setting the
volume, changing the sound effects, and others, which are
explained in the section "Common Operations" on pages 9
to 11.
· The following marks are used in this manual:
Gives you warnings and cautions to prevent
damage or risk of fire/electric shock.
Also gives you information which is not good
for obtaining the best possible performance
from the unit.
Gives you information and hints you had better
know.
Precautions

the unit.
· Install in a place which is level, dry and neither too hot nor
too cold--between 5°C (41°F) and 35°C (95°F).
· Install the unit in a location with adequate ventilation to
prevent internal heat built-up in the unit.
· Leave sufficient distance between the unit and the TV.
· Keep the speakers away from the TV to avoid interference
with TV.

sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight,
excessive dust or vibration.

· If the unit is brought directly from a cold to a warm place
Should this occur, the unit may malfunction. In this case,
leave the unit turned on for a few hours until the moisture
evaporates, unplug the AC power cord, and then plug it in
again.
Others
· Should any metallic object or liquid fall into the unit,
unplug the unit and consult your dealer before operating
any further.
