About This Manual
This manual is organized as follows:

• Basic and common information that is the same for many
functions is grouped in one place, and is not repeated in each procedure. For instance, we do not repeat the information about turning on/off the unit, setting the volume, changing the sound effects, and others, which are explained in the section “Common Operations” on pages 10 to 12.
