9. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or
grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades
with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug
has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide
blade or the third prong are provided for your safety.
If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet,
consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete
outlet.
10. Protect the power cord from being walked on or
pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles,
and the point where they exit from the apparatus.
11. Only use attachments/accessories specified by the
manufacturer.
12. Use only with the cart, stand,
tripod, bracket, or table
specified by the manufacturer,
or sold with the apparatus.
When a cart is used, use
caution when moving the
cart/apparatus combination to
avoid injury from tip-over.
13. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when
unused for long periods of time.
14. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
Servicing is required when the apparatus has been
damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or
plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects
have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been
exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate
normally, or has been dropped.
15. Damage Requiring Service
Unplug the apparatus 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 apparatus,
C. If the apparatus has been exposed to rain or water,
D. If the apparatus 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 apparatus to its normal operation,
E. If the apparatus has been dropped or damaged in
any way, and
F. When the apparatus exhibits a distinct change in
performance this indicates a need for service.
16. Object and Liquid Entry
Never push objects of any kind into the apparatus
through openings as they may touch dangerous
voltage points or short-out parts that could result in a
fire or electric shock.

WARNING
BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE UNIT FOR THE
FIRST TIME, READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION
CAREFULLY.
AC outlet voltages vary from country to country.
Make sure that the voltage in your area meets the
voltage requirements printed on the unit’s rear panel
(e.g., AC 230 V, 50 Hz or AC 120 V, 60 Hz).
The power cord plug is used to disconnect this unit
from the AC power source. Make sure that the plug is
readily operable (easily accessible) at all times.
For models with [Power] button, or with both
[Power] and [On/Standby] buttons:
Pressing the [Power] button to select OFF mode does
not fully disconnect from the mains. If you do not
intend to use the unit for an extended period, remove
the power cord from the AC outlet.
For models with [On/Standby] button only:
Pressing the [On/Standby] button to select Standby
mode does not fully disconnect from the mains. If you
do not intend to use the unit for an extended period,
remove the power cord from the AC outlet.
5. Preventing Hearing Loss
Caution
Excessive sound pressure from earphones and
headphones can cause hearing loss.
6. Batteries and Heat Exposure
Warning
Batteries (battery pack or batteries installed) shall not
be exposed to excessive heat as sunshine, fire or the
like.
7. Never Touch this Unit with Wet Hands—Never
handle this unit or its power cord while your hands are
wet or damp. If water or any other liquid gets inside
this unit, have it checked by the dealer from whom
you purchased this unit.
8. Handling Notes
If you need to transport this unit, use the original
packaging to pack it how it was when you originally
bought it.
Do not leave rubber or plastic items on this unit for
a long time, because they may leave marks on the
case.
This unit’s top and rear panels may get warm after

will give you superb performance for many years to
come. THX Ultra2 Plus requirements define hundreds of
parameters, including power amplifier performance, and
pre-amplifier performance and operation for both digital
and analog domains. THX Ultra2 Plus receivers also
feature proprietary THX technologies (e.g., THX Mode)
which accurately translate movie soundtracks for home
theater playback.

This section explains how to connect the supplied indoor FM antenna and AM loop antenna.
The AV controller won’t pick up any radio signals without any antenna connected, so you must connect the antenna to
use the tuner.
Note
Once your AV controller is ready for use, you’ll need to tune into a radio station and position the antenna to achieve the best possible
reception.
Keep the AM loop antenna as far away as possible from your AV controller, TV, speaker cables, and power cords.
Tip
If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied indoor FM antenna, try a commercially available outdoor FM antenna instead.
If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied indoor AM loop antenna, try using it with a commercially available outdoor
AM antenna.
Note
Before connecting the power cord, connect all of your
speakers and AV components.
Turning on the AV controller may cause a momentary power
surge that might interfere with other electrical equipment on the
same circuit. If this is a problem, plug the AV controller into a
different branch circuit.
Do not use a power cord other than the one supplied with the AV
controller. The supplied power cord is designed exclusively for
use with the AV controller and should not be used with any other
equipment.
Never disconnect the power cord from the AV controller while
the other end is still plugged into a wall outlet. Doing so may
cause an electric shock. Always disconnect the power cord from
the wall outlet first, and then the AV controller.
