RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

DO NOT OPEN

THIS SYMBOL INDICATES THAT DANGEROUS VOLTAGE CONSTITUTING A RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK IS PRESENT WITHIN THIS UNIT.

THIS SYMBOL INDICATES THAT THERE ARE IMPORTANT OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS IN THE LITERATURE ACCOMPANYING THE APPLIANCE.

1. Read instructions - All the safety and operating instruc-

tions should be read before the appliance is operated.

2. Retain Instructions - The safety and operating instruc-

tions should be retained for future reference.

3. Heed Warnings - All warnings on the appliance and in

the operating instructions should be adhered to.

4. Follow Instructions - All operating and use instructions

should be followed.

5. Cleaning - Unplug the unit from the wall outlet before

cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning. EXCEPTION: A product that is meant for uninterrupted service and, that for some specific reason, such as the possibility of the loss of an authorization code for a CATV converter, is not intended to be unplugged by the user for cleaning or any other purpose, may exclude the reference to unplugging the appliance in the cleaning description otherwise required in item 5.

6. Attachments - Do not use attachments not recommend-

ed by the unit manufacturer as they may cause hazards.

7. Water and Moisture - Do not use this unit near water-

for example, near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, and the like.

8. Accessories - Do not place this unit on an unstable cart,

stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The unit may fall, causing serious injury to someone, and serious damage to the appliance. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table recommended by the manufacturer, or sold with the unit. Any mounting of the appliance should follow the manufacturer’s instructions and should use a mounting accessory recommended by the manufacturer. An appliance and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and cart combination to overturn.

AMEUBLES - Cet appareil ne doit être placé que sur un meuble (avec ou sans roulettes) recommandé par le fabricant. Si vous l’installez sur un meuble à roulettes, déplacez les deux ensembles avec précaution. Un arrêt brusque, l’utilisation d’une force excessive et des surfaces irrégulières risquent de déstabiliser l’ensemble et de le renverser.

9. Ventilation - Slots and openings in the cabinet and the

back or bottom are provided for ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the unit and to protect it from overheating, and these openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the unit on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This unit should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register. This unit should not be placed in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation is provided or the manufacturer’s instructions have been adhered to.

10. Power Sources - This unit should be operated only from

the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult your appliance dealer or local power company. For the units intended to operate from battery power, or other sources, refer to the operating instructions.

11.Grounding or Polarization - This unit is 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.

12. 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 appliance.

13. Outdoor Antenna grounding - If an outside antenna or

cable system is connected to the unit, 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 No. 70, provides information with respect 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. (Fig. A)

14. Lightning - For added protection for this unit receiver

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 unit due to lightning and power-line surges.

15. 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.

16. Overloading - Do not overload wall outlets and exten-

sion cords as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

17. Object and Liquid Entry - Never push objects of any

kind into this unit 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 unit.

18. Servicing - Do not attempt to service this unit yourself

as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

19. Damage Requiring Service - Unplug this unit 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 or

frayed.

b. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the

unit. c. If the unit has been exposed to rain or water. d. If the unit does not operate normally by following the

operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are

covered by the operating instructions, as improper

adjustment of other controls may result in damage and

will often require extensive work by a qualified techni-

cian to restore the unit to its normal operation. e. If the unit has been dropped or damaged in any way.

f. When the unit exhibits a distinct change in performance,

this indicates a need for service.

20. Replacement Parts - When replacement parts are

required, be sure the service technician has used replace-

ment parts specified by the manufacturer that have the

same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized

substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, injury to

persons or other hazards.

21. Safety Check - pon completion of any service or repairs

to this unit, ask the service technician to perform routine

safety checks to determine that the unit is in proper

operating condition.

22. Heat - This unit product should be situated away from

heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or

other products (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

CONNECTING TO A DOLBY DIGITAL DECODER (for DVD)

If using this unit to play a DVD disc in a 5.1 channel Dolby Digital surround format, the unit outputs a DOLBY DIGITAL Data stream from its COAXIAL jack. By hooking the unit up to a Dolby Digital decoder, you can enjoy a more convincing, realistic ambience with powerful and high-quality surround sound as enjoyed in movie theaters.

Use audio coaxial digital cables (commercially available) for the audio connections.

NOTES:

•

Be sure to turn off the power to all components in the system before connecting another component.

•

Refer to the Owner’s Manuals for the components to be connected to the unit.

•

If connected to a Dolby Digital decoder, set “DOLBY DIGITAL” to “BITSTREAM” for audio output in the setup mode. (Refer to page 27.)

•

Unless connected to a Dolby Digital decoder, set “DOLBY DIGITAL” to “PCM” for audio output in the setup mode. Playing a unit using incorrect settings may generate noise distortion and may also damage the speakers. (Refer to page 27.)
