5. Conditions Requiring Service
Unplug this product from the wall outlet and refer serving 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 operation instructions. Adjust only those controls
covered by the operation instructions. 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.
6. Replacement Parts
When replacement parts are required, have the service technician verify that the replacement parts he uses have the same safety characteristics as the original parts. Use of replacements specified by the product manufacturer can prevent fire, electric shock, or hazards.
7. Power plug
• When disconnecting the power cord from the power outlet, always take hold of the plug, and not the wire, and pull free. Never connect or disconnect the power plug with wet hands since you may receive an electric shock.
• Remember to disconnect the power plug from the power outlet when you do not intend to use the unit for a prolonged period of time.
8. Do not remove the case and bottom panel
Any inspections or adjustments inside the unit may lead to malfunctions and electric shocks. Do not touch any of the inside parts.
9. Do not block the ventilation holes
Do not block the ventilation holes on the top of the unit by placing records or other objects over them. This will increase the inside temperature and may lead to failure or malfunction.
10. Installation precautions
Do not install the unit in any of the following locations since this may result in a deterioration in performance or malfunction:
• Locations exposed to direct sunlight or near objects radiating heat such as heating appliances.
• Locations exposed to moisture or humidity.
• Locations with poor ventilation or exposed to dust or dirt.
• Locations which are unstable and not perfectly flat or which are susceptible to vibration.
11. Do not wipe with thinner
Wipe the panels and case from time to time with a soft cloth. Using any kind of thinner, alcohol, or volatile liquid will mar the surface, cause blotching on the exterior and erase the markings and should therefore be avoided. Do not use insecticide sprays in the vicinity.

SPEAKER SYSTEMS
POSITIONING OF THE SPEAKERS
The positioning of speakers differs according to the size and acoustics of the listening room. While actually listening to a program source, try various speaker positions to determine which layout provides the best surround effect.
A. Front speakers
Place the font speakers in front of the listening position, to the left and right of a TV. Front speakers are required for all surround modes.
B. Center speaker
Place a center speaker between the front speakers, on or below the TV. This speaker improves sonic imaging and depth of field. Be sure to connect a center speaker when using the DTS/Dolby Digital and Dolby Pro-Logic mode.
C. Rear Surround speakers
Install these speakers above and to the left and right of the level of the listener’s ears. Do not install the rear speakers too far behind the listening position. It might be effective to direct the rear speakers towards a wall or ceiling to further disperse the sound.
D. Subwoofer
Reproduces powerful and deep bass sounds.
Connect the speaker systems to the SPEAKERS terminals on the rear panel of the unit with the speaker cords. To avoid damaging the speakers with a sudden high-level signal, be sure to switch the power off and check the impedance of your speakers before connecting the speakers. Be sure to connect the polarities of the speaker systems and the speaker terminals correctly (+ to +, - to -). If the polarities of one of the speaker system is connected improperly, sound in the central area between the speakers will appear to the missing, and the position of instruments will not be clear, resulting in a loss of stereo directionality. When connecting, do not allow the conductor of the speaker cords to be exposed at the terminals and come into contact with other terminals, as this may cause a short circuit, and damage this system.
SPEAKER LAYOUT EXAMPLE WHEN USING SURROUND MODE

AVAILABLE SURROUND MODES
SURROUND MODE
Select the appropriate mode according to the program source. Note that surround speakers are needed for DTS/DOLBY DIGITAL Dolby Pro Logic
II
Surround mode to function. We recommend using a center speaker when operating the unit in DTS/DOLBYDIGITAL/ Dolby Pro Logic
II
Surround modes. The DOLBY DIGITAL button can be pressed when you are using either Optical or Coaxial cable as an input connection.
Manufactured under license from Dolby Laboratories.
“Dolby”, “Pro logic II” and the double-D symbol are
trademarks of Dolby Laboratories
DOLBY PRO LOGIC IIand DTS buttons can be pressed when you are operating in Analog Mode. When a Dolby Digital format signal is input, the surround mode automatically switches to the DOLBY DIGITAL mode.
DTS DIGITAL SURROUND MODE
DTS lets you enjoy 5.1(or 6) discrete channels of high quality digital audio from DTS program sources bearing the DTS trademark, such as discs, DVD and compact discs, etc. DTS Digital Surround delivers up to 6 channels of transparent audio (which means identical to the original masters) and results in exceptional clarity throughout a true 360
. Sound field. The term DTS is a trademark of DTS Technology, LLC. Manufacrured under license from DTS Technology, LLC.
Note : DTS program sources should be played back in
the DTS mode.
DOLBY DIGITAL MODE
The Dolby Digital surround format lets you enjoy up to 5.1 channels of digital surround sound from a Dolby Digital program source.
If you connect a DVD player or an LD player equipped with a DOLBY DIGITAL output to the DIGITAL (Dolby Digital)/DTS/PCM DIGITAL IN jack on a surround receiver/amplifier and play DVD or laser discs with trademark, you will experience even better sound quality, greater spatial accuracy, and improve dynamic range. This is because Dolby Digital delivers up to 5 totally discrete, full-frequency audio channels (from left and right, center, and surround left and right), Plus 0.1 channel called LFE (low frequency-only effects channel). Dolby Digital is a system developed by Dolby laboratories that transmits 5.1 channel of digital signals. The surround system developed for movie theaters using this system is called “Dolby SR-D (Surround Digital)”. Because each channel is completely independent, a realistic sound field with a “three-dimensions” feel is achieved which gives the sound a sense of distance, movement and relative position, creating a surprisingly real and powerful sense of presence. Some Dolby Digital programs information that allow you to compress the dynamic range of a sound track, without degrading the sound quality, for softer sound effects when you listen late at night.
DOLBY PRO LOGIC II
Dolby Pro Logic IIis the next generation of Dolby Surround Pro Logic decoding technology. Consumers enthusiastically demand 5.1-channel sound in new programs of all kinds. But vast numbers of programs already exist in stereo and Dolby Surround, and many more will continue to arrive in years to come. Pro Logic II lets consumers enjoy these programs with a convincing 5.1-like presentation. Pro Logic II can decode the thousands of existing Dolby Surround movies and television shows already on the shelf and with enhanced image stability. The improvements in decoding techniques mean that the discreteness of the sound field elements is better­preserved in the decoding process than was possible with the now universally standard Pro Logic technology, developed in the mid-80s.
