Memory Preservation
This unit does not require memory preservation bat­teries. A built-in memory power back-up system pre­serves the contents of the memory during power failures and even when the Power switch is set to off. The Power switch must be set to on in order to charge the back-up system. The memory preservation period after the unit has been turned off varies depending on climate and placement of the unit. On the average, memory contents are protected over a period of a few weeks after the last time the unit has been turned off. This period is shorter when the unit is exposed to a very humid climate.

Positioning speakers
Speaker placement plays an important role in the repro­duction of Surround sound. The placement of the speak­ers varies depending on the size of the room and the wall coverings used in the room. The illustration shows an example of a layout for standard speaker placement. Refer to this example when you position the speakers in order to experience the best of Surround sound.

Standard speaker placement

For ideal Surround effects, all speakers should be installed. If a center speaker or subwoofer is not con­nected, the sound from the unused channel is properly distributed to the connected speakers in order to pro­duce the best Surround sound possible.
Front: The left, right, and center speakers should face the seated listener and be placed at ear level. The center speaker produces a richer sound image by enhancing the perception of the sound’s source and movement. Surround: Place the left and right Surround speakers 1 meter (3 feet) above the listener’s ear level and fac­ing toward the sides of the room, making sure that the listener is within the speakers’ dispersion angle. These speakers produce the feel of a moving sound while cre­ating the sensation of being in the middle of the action. Subwoofer: Install a subwoofer with a built-in power ampli­fier for powerful bass sounds. The placement of the sub­woofer does not affect the final quality of the sound image too much, so you can install it with the room layout in mind.
Refer to the speaker’s instruction manual for more details.

Connecting the power
Before you plug in the receiver, confirm that all con-
nections have been made properly.
Turning on this receiver’s power may cause a momen-
tary power surge, which might interfere with other elec­trical equipment, such as computers. If this happens, use a wall outlet on a different circuit.

1. Plug the power cable into an AC wall outlet. Note:

When you use the DTR-5.1 for the first time: When the DTR-5.1 is shipped from the factory, the Power switch is set to On ( ). Therefore, when you plug in the power cord to the AC outlet, the Standby indicator lights up and the unit enters Standby mode as described in Step 2.
2. Press the Power switch to set it to the On( ) position to place the receiver in Standby mode.
The Standby indicator will light up. Press the Power switch again to set it to the Off ( ) position to turn off the power to the receiver.
3. Press the Standby/On button to turn on the receiver. The display will light up and the Standby indicator will be turned off.
If you press the Standby/On button, the receiver returns to Standby mode.

Turning the power on from the remote controller:

1. Press the Power switch of the DTR-5.1 to turn on the power to the unit.

2. Press the MODE AUDIO button.

3. Press the On button to turn on the power to the DTR-
5.1, or press the STNBY button to set the receiver in standby mode.
You cannot use the remote controller if the Power
switch on the receiver is set to Off.
Set the volume level to minimum before you turn off
the power to the receiver.

Connecting the FM indoor antenna:
The FM indoor antenna is for indoor use only. Extend the antenna and move it in various directions until the clearest signal is received. Fix it with push pins or similar implements in the position that will cause the least amount of distortion. If the reception is not very clear with the attached FM indoor antenna, the use of an outdoor antenna is rec­ommended.
Remove the insulation at the tip of the cable, and insert the cable securely, fully to the end of the exposed tip.
Connecting the AM loop antenna:
The AM loop antenna is for indoor use only. Set it in the direction and position where you receive the clearest sound. Put it as far away as possible from the unit, TVs, speaker cables, and power cords. When reception is not satisfactory with the attached AM loop antenna alone, connection of an outdoor antenna is recommended.

Connecting an FM outdoor antenna
Please make sure that you follow the considerations below regarding the location. Keep the antenna away from noise sources (neon signs, busy roads, etc.). It is dangerous to put the antenna close to power lines. Keep it well away from power lines, transformers, etc.
To avoid the risk of lightning and electrical shock,
grounding is necessary. Follow item 19 of the “Impor­tant Safeguards” on page 2 when you install the out­door antenna.
Connecting an AM outdoor antenna
The outdoor antenna will be more effective if it is stretched horizontally above a window or outside.

Directional Iinkage
Do not use the same antenna for both FM and TV (or VCR) reception since the FM and TV (or VCR) signals can interfere with each other. If you must use a com­mon FM/TV (or VCR) antenna, use a directional linkage type splitter.
