Condensation

2 Condensation

Condensation can be seen as water droplets that
have formed on the windows of a heated room in
winter.

2

Conditions for the Formation of
Condensation

In winter, when the unit is brought from outdoors
to a warm indoor location, or when the room
temperature is suddenly raised by a heater,
condensation will form on the operating parts
within the unit and normal operation will no longer
be possible.
Condensation can also form in summer when the
breeze from an air conditioner strikes the unit
directly. Should this occur, change the setup
location of the unit.

2 Measures to Take After Condensation

Forms

• If condensation has formed, switch on the
power and leave the unit for a while. Although
the time will differ according to the surrounding
conditions, the unit should be usable in 1 to 2
hours.

• Should condensation form on the disc, wipe the
disc clean.

Other Precautions

2

Illustrations used for descriptive purposes may
differ from the actual items.

2

Please keep the instruction manual.
After reading this instruction manual, please keep it
in a safe place together with the warranty.

Setup Precautions

2 Please provide a spacing of more than 10 cm

between the top, rear, and side surfaces of
subwoofer and walls or other audio/video
equipment, etc.

2 When using this unit or other electronic equipment

that contains microprocessors at the same time as
using a tuner or TV, noise or screen interference
can occur on the audio and video of the tuner or
TV. Should this occur, pay careful attention to the
following points.

• Separate this unit as much as possible from the
tuner or TV.

• Separate the antenna line of the tuner or TV from
the power cable and input/output connection
cables of this unit as much as possible.

• Use of indoor antennas and 300 Ω/ohms feedline
are especially susceptible to such interference.
We recommend the use of outdoor antennas and
75 Ω/ohms coaxial cable.

300 Ω/ohms feedline 75 Ω/ohms coaxial cable

CONNECTIONS

NOTES:

• Do not plug in the power plug into an outlet until all connections have been completed.

• Check the channels and be sure to connect left to left (L—white), right to right (R—red).

• Insert the power plug securely. An incomplete connection will cause noise to occur.

• After unplugging the power supply cord, wait about 5 seconds before plugging it back in.

• Be sure to connect the speaker cords between the speaker terminals and the speaker systems with the

same polarities (+ to +, − to −). If the polarities are switched, the sound at the center will be weak, the
position of the different instruments will be unclear, and the stereo effect will be lost.

• Do not bundle the (pin plug) connection cables together or place them close to other electrical products
such as TVs since this may cause hum or other noise.

minimum, then fasten the tip of the antenna in this
position using tape or a pin.

AN TTENNA

AM GND FM COAX.75Ω

Connecting an FM outdoor antenna

If broadcasts cannot be tuned in clearly with the
included antenna, use an outdoor FM antenna,
connect a converter adapter to the coaxial cable and
connect the converter adapter to the set’s FM COAX
(75 Ω/ohms) terminal.

Selecting a place for the FM outdoor
antenna

• Set the antenna so that it is pointing towards the
broadcast station’s transmitting antenna.

• Behind buildings or mountains, set the antenna in
the position at which reception is best, and also try
changing the direction of the antenna.

• Do not install the antenna under power lines.
Doing so is extremely dangerous, as the power line
could touch the antenna.

• Install the antenna away from roads or tracks to
avoid noise from cars or trains.

• Do not install the antenna too high, as it may be hit
by lightning.

Note to CATV system installer:

This reminder is provided to Call the CATV
system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of
the NEC which provides guide lines for proper
grounding and, in particular, specifies that the
cable ground shall be connected to the grounding
system of the building, as close to the point of
cable entry as practical.

Installing the AM loop antenna

Tune in an AM station (see page 15), set the antenna
in a position as far from the system as position in
which distortion and noise is minimum. In some
cases it is best to invert the polarities. AM broadcasts
cannot be received well if the loop antenna is not
connected or if it is set close to metal objects.

Assembling the AM loop antenna

Installing an AM outdoor antenna

Connect the signal wire from the AM outdoor
antenna to the antenna terminal (ANTENNA AM).
Be sure to ground the antenna and connect the
ground wire to the GND terminal. Also be sure to
connect the included AM loop antenna.

Connect the system cable and
speaker cords to the subwoofer.
(See page 7.)

NOTES:

• When mounting on the wall, take care that no
accidents occur due to the D-107 or speakers
falling.

• Check the wall surface before mounting the D­107 and speakers to make sure it is strong
enough to support the weight.

• Consult a specialist if you do not know how
strong the wall is.

• Screws for mounting the D-107 on the wall are
not included. Use screws suited to the strength
and material of the pillar or wall.

• Fasten the speaker cords and system cables in
place so that there is no risk of them being
pulled accidentally, causing the main unit or
speakers to fall.

• Be sure to mount using screws for all four
screw holes on the CD receiver and both screw
holes on the speakers. If any of the screw holes
are not used, the CD receiver or speakers will
be unstable and risk falling.

• Do not install the CD receiver too high up. If the
CD receiver is too high, the remote control
signals may have not reach it easily, making it
difficult to operate.

• Note that Denon will not be held responsible for
any accidents or damage due to improper
assembly or mounting, insufficient mounting
strength, erroneous usage, natural disasters,
etc.

REMOTE CONTROL UNIT

2 The D-107 can be controlled from a distance using the included remote control unit (RC-909).

(1) Inserting Batteries

Cautions On Batteries

• Use R03 (AAA) batteries in the remote control
unit.

• The batteries should be replaced with new ones
after approximately one year, though this
depends on the frequency with which the
remote control unit is used.

• Even if the batteries are less than a year old,
replace them with new ones if the remote
control unit no longer operates even from a
short distance from the main unit.

• The included battery is only for verifying
operation. Replace it with a new battery as
soon as possible.

• When inserting new batteries, wait about two
minutes agter removing the old batteries before
inserting the new ones.

• Be sure to set the batteries in the proper < and
> directions, as indicated by the marks in the
remote control unit’s battery compartment.

• Remove the batteries when not using the
remote control unit for long periods of time.

• To avoid explosions and fluid leakage:

•Do not use one new battery with one old one.

•Do not use two different types of batteries.

•Do not short-circuit, disassemble, heat or
dispose of batteries in flames.

• If the battery fluid should leak, wipe all the fluid
off the battery compartment, then insert new
batteries.

q Remove the remote control unit’s rear cover.

w Place two R03 (AAA) batteries in the battery

compartment in the direction indicated by the
marks.

e Close the rear cover.

NOTES:

• It may be difficult to operate the remote control
unit if the remote control sensor is exposed to
direct sunlight or strong artificial light.

• Do not press buttons on the main unit and on
the remote control unit at the same time. Doing
so will result in malfunction.

• When operating the remote control unit, point it at
the remote control sensor as shown on the
diagram.

• The remote control unit can be used from a direct
distance of approximately 7 meters. This distance
will be shorter, however, if there are obstacles in
the way or if the remote control unit is not pointed
directly at the remote control sensor.

• The remote control unit can be operated at a
horizontal angle of up to 30° with respect to the
remote control sensor.

About installation

2 About speaker installation

• Set the speakers sufficiently apart from each
other to achieve a suitable stereo effect (sense
of expansion).

• It is recommended that the speakers be placed
at least 7 cm from the D-107. (See the diagram
below.)

The quality of the sound produced from the speakers
depends on the size of the room, the type of room
(Japanese style or western style) and how the
speakers are mounted. Adjust the sound to suit your
tastes.

2

About subwoofer installation

• The set’s sound balance is set assuming the
subwoofer is installed on the floor.

• If the subwoofer is placed against a wall, the
bass sound may seem amplified due to the
sound reflecting off the wall. Adjust the bass
sound (BASS) to suit your tastes.

See “Adjusting the tone” for instructions on
adjusting the bass sound (BASS).

About main unit installation

When installing on a desk or table, mount the
