Water and moisture — Do not use this unit near water, such as near a bathtub, washbowl, swimming pool, or the like. Heat — Do not use this unit near heat sources, including heating vents, stoves, or other appliances that generate heat.
It also should not be placed in temperatures less than 5°C (41“F) or higher than 35°C (95”F). Mounting surface — Place the unit on a flat, even surface. Ventilation — The unit should be situated with adequate space around it so that proper heat ventilation is assured. Allow 10 cm (4 in.) clearance from the rear and the top of the unit, and 5 cm (2 in.) from each side.
- Do not place the unit on a bed, rug, or similar surface that
may block the ventilation openings.
- Do d install the unit in a bookcase, cabinet, or airtight
rack where ventilation may be impeded. Objects and liquid entry — Take care that objects or liquids do not get inside the unit through the ventilation openings. Carts and stands — When placed or mounted on a stand or cart, the unit should be moved with care.

or fall. Wall or ceiling mounting —The unit should not be mounted on a wall or-ceiling, unless specified in the Operating
Instructions.
Electric Power
1 Power sources — Connect this unit only to power sources
specified in the Operating Instructions, and as marked on the unit.
2 Polarization — As a safety feature, some units are equipped
with polarized AC power plugs which can only be inserted one way into a power outlet. If it is difficult or impossible to insert the AC power plug into an outlet, turn the plug over and try again. If it is not still inserted easily into the outlet, please call a qualified service technician to service or replace the outlet. To avoid defeating the safety feature of the polarized plug, do not force it into a power outlet.
3 AC power cord
- When disconnecting the AC power cord, pull it out by the
AC power plug. Do not pull the cord itself.
- Never handle the AC power plug with wet hands, as this
could result in fire or shock.
- Power cords should be firmly secured to avoid being
severely bent, pinched, or walked upon. Pay particular
attention to the cord from the unit to the power socket.
- Avoid overloading AC power plugs and extension cords beyond their capacity, as this could result in fire or shock.
4 Extension cord — To help prevent electric shock, do not
use a polarized AC power plug with an extension cord, receptacle, or other outlet unless the polarized plug can be
completely inserted to prevent exposure of the blades of the
plug.
5 When not in use — Unplug the AC power cord from the AC
power plug if the unit will not be used for several months or more. When the cord is plugged in, a small amount of current continues to flovv to the unit, even when the power is turned off.
Outdoor Antenna

Power lines — When connecting an outdoor antenna, make sure it is located away from power lines. Outdoor antenna aroulndilng— Be sure the antenna system
is properly grounde~ to provi~e protection against unexpected voltage surges or static electricity build-up. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANS1/NFPA70, provides information on proper grounding oil the mast, supporting structure,
andl
the lead-in wire ‘to the antenna discharge unit, as well as the size of the grounding unit, connection to grounding terminals, and requirements for grounding terminals themselves.

Fix the claw to the slot as shown in the illustration.
To position the antennas
FM feeder antenna:
Extend this antenna horizontally in a T shape and fix its ends to the wall. AM loop antenna:
Position to find the best direction.
m
● Do not bring the FM antenna near metal objects or curtain rails.
● Do not bring the AM antenna near other external equipment,
the unit itself, the AC power cord or speaker cords, as noise will be picked up.
c Do not unwind the AM loop antenna wire.
CONNECTING AN OUTDOOR ANTENNA
For better FM reception, use of an outdoor antenna is recommended. Connect the outdoor antenna to the FM 75 Q
terminals.
CONNECTING THE SUPPLIED REMOTE CONTROL EXTENDER @

EXTENDER
m Position the supplied remote control extender so that the line of sight between the remote control extender and the connected equipment will not be obstructed by a rack or opaque glass.
REMOTE CONTROL
This remote control system can memorize other remote control signal codes (see “MEMORIZING SIGNAL CODES), and allows you to operate external equipment with it through the supplied remote control extender (AV-X200 only),
Inserting batteries
Detach the battery cover on the rear of the remote control and insert two R6 (size AA) batteries.
R6(AA)
When to replace the batteries
The maximum operational distance between the remote control and the sensor on the unit should be approximately 5 meters (16 feet). When this distance decreases, replace the batteries with new ones.
m
● If the unit is not going to be used for an extended period of
time, remove the batteries to prevent possible electrolyte leakage.
● The remote control may not operate correctly when:
- The line of sight between the remote control and the remote sensor in the display window is exposed to intense light, such as direct sunlight.
- Other remote controls are used nearby (those of television, etc.)
