SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

12. Grounding or Polarization – This product may be equipped with a polarized
alternating-current line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other).
This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If
you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If
the plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete
outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.

13. Power-Cord Protection – Power-supply cords should be routed so that they are
not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them,
paying particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the
point where they exit from the product.

15. Outdoor Antenna Grounding – If an outside antenna or cable system is
connected to the product, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded
so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static
charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides
information with regard to proper grounding of the mast and supporting
structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size
of grounding conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to
grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode. See
Figure A.

16. Lightning – For added protection for this product during a lightning storm, or
when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from
the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent
damage to the product due to lightning and power-line surges.

17. Power Lines – An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity
of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it
can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna
system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power
lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

18. Overloading – Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral
convenience receptacles as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

19. Object and Liquid Entry – Never push objects of any kind into this product
through openings as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short-out
parts that could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind
on the product.

20. Servicing – Do not attempt to service this product yourself as opening or
removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards.
Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

21. Damage Requiring Service – Unplug this product from the wall outlet and
refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:

a) When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged,
b) If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the product,
c) If the product has been exposed to rain or water,
d) If the product does not operate normally by following the operating

instructions. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating
instructions as an improper adjustment of other controls may result in
damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to

restore the product to its normal operation,
e) If the product has been dropped or damaged in any way, and
f) When the product exhibits a distinct change in performance – this indicates

a need for service.

22. Replacement Parts – When replacement parts are required, be sure the service

technician has used replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or have
the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may
result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.

23. Safety Check – Upon completion of any service or repairs to this product, ask

the service technician to perform safety checks to determine that the product
is in proper operating condition.

24. Wall or Ceiling Mounting – The product should be mounted to a wall or ceiling

only as recommended by the manufacturer.

25. Heat – The product should be situated away from heat sources such as

radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other products (including amplifiers) that
produce heat.

This is a device that is connected to the broadband
line to communicate with the Internet. Some are

integrated with the router.

n Router

• When using the ASD-3N, we recommend you use
a router equipped with the following functions:

· Built-in DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration

This function automatically assigns IP addresses

on the LAN.

· Built-in 100BASE-TX switch
When connecting multiple devices, we

recommend a switching hub with a speed of 100
Mbps or greater.

NOTE

• A contract with an ISP is required to connect to the
Internet.

No additional contract is needed if you already have

a broadband connection to the Internet.

• The types of routers that can be used depend on the
ISP. Contact an ISP or a computer shop for details.

• Depending on the server, video files may be
displayed, but they cannot be played on the ASD­3N.

n Others

• If you have an Internet provider contract for a line on
which network settings are made manually, make
the settings at GUI menu “Setup” – “Network”
– “Network Setup” (vpage 11, 12).

• With the ASD-3N, it is possible to use the DHCP
and Auto IP functions to make the network settings
automatically.

• When using a broadband router (DHCP
function), the ASD-3N sets the IP address, etc.,
automatically.

When using the ASD-3N connected to a network

with no DHCP function, make the settings for the
IP address, etc., at GUI menu “Setup” – “Network”
– “Network Setup” (vpage 11, 12).

• The ASD-3N is not compatible with PPPoE. A
PPPoE-compatible router is required if you have
a contract for a line of the type with which the
PPPoE is set.

• Depending on the ISP with which you have your
contract, it may be necessary to make proxy
server settings to use the Internet radio function.
If you made proxy server settings on the computer
to connect to the Internet, make the proxy server
settings on the ASD-3N in the same way.

This is a system for converting the domain

names used when browsing Internet sites (for
example, “www.denon.jp”) into the IP addresses
actually used for communications (for example,

“202.221.192.106”).

• If you are using a broadband router (DHCP function),
there is no need to make the settings at “Setting the

function is set to “ON” in the ASD-3N’s default
settings.

• If the ASD-3N is being used connected to a network
without the DHCP function, the network settings
must be made. In this case, some knowledge of
networks is required. For details, consult a network
administrator.

• If you cannot connect to the Internet, recheck the

created for the ASD-3N.

b The radio station database service may be

suspended without notice.
