For the main unit:
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits
for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference
will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that
to which the receiver is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the
manufacturer for compliance could void the user’s authority to
operate the equipment.

Getting Started
Before Installation
General Precautions
• DO NOT insert any metal object into the unit.
• DO NOT disassemble the unit or remove screws, covers, or
cabinet.
• DO NOT expose the unit to rain or moisture.
Locations
• Install the unit in a location that is level and protected from
moisture.
• The temperature around the unit must be between –5˚C and 35˚C
(23˚F and 95˚F).
• Make sure there is good ventilation around the unit. Poor
ventilation could cause overheating and damage the unit.
Handling the unit
• DO NOT touch the power cord with wet hands.
• DO NOT pull on the power cord to unplug the cord. When
unplugging the cord, always grasp the plug so as not to damage
the cord.
• Keep the power cord away from the connecting cords and the
antenna. The power cord may cause noise or screen interference. It
is recommended to use a coaxial cable for antenna connection,
since it is well-shielded against interference.
• When a power failure occurs, or when you unplug the power cord,
the preset settings such as preset FM/AM channels and sound
adjustments may be erased in a few days.
Putting Batteries in the Remote Control
Before using the remote control, put two supplied batteries first.
• When using the remote control, aim the remote control directly at
the remote sensor on the unit.
1
On the back of the remote control, remove the
battery cover.
2
Insert batteries.
• Make sure to match the polarity: (+) to (+) and (–) to (–).
Parts Identification / Getting Started
Checking the Supplied Accessories
Check to be sure you have all of the following supplied accessories.
The number in the parentheses indicates the quantity of the pieces
supplied.
• Remote Control (1)
• Batteries (2)
• AM Loop Antenna (1)
• FM Antenna (1)
If anything is missing, contact your dealer immediately.
3
Replace the cover.
If the range or effectiveness of the remote control decreases, replace
the batteries. Use two R6P(SUM-3)/AA(15F) type dry-cell batteries.
CAUTION:
Follow these precautions to avoid leaking or cracking cells:
• Place batteries in the remote control so they match the polarity:
(+) to (+) and (–) to (–).
• Use the correct type of batteries. Batteries that look similar may
differ in voltage.
• Always replace both batteries at the same time.
• Do not expose batteries to heat or flame.

Creating Realistic Sound Fields
You can use the following Surround modes to reproduce a realistic
sound field:
■ Dolby Surround
• Dolby Pro Logic II
• Dolby Digital
■ DTS Digital Surround
■ DAP (Digital Acoustic Processor) modes
■ All Channel Stereo
■ Dolby Surround
Dolby Pro Logic II*
Dolby Pro Logic II has a newly developed multichannel playback
format to decode all 2 channel sources—regular stereo source and
Dolby Surround encoded source—into 5.1 channel.
Matrix-based encoding/decoding method for Dolby Pro Logic II
makes no limitation for the cutoff frequency of the rear treble and
enables stereo rear sound compared to conventional Dolby Pro
Logic.
Dolby Pro Logic II enables to reproduce spacious sound from
original sound without adding any new sounds and tonal colorations.
Dolby Pro Logic II has two modes—Movie mode and Music mode:
Pro Logic II Movie (PL II MOVIE)—suitable for reproduction of
Dolby Surround encoded sources bearing the mark
You can enjoy soundfield very close to the one created with discrete
5.1 channel sounds.
Pro Logic II Music (PL II MUSIC)—suitable for reproduction of
any 2 channel stereo music sources. You can enjoy wide and deep
sound by using this mode. For this mode, Panorama control can be
selected, which gives “wraparound” sound effect with side-wall
image.
• When Dolby Pro Logic II is activated,

DOLBY SURROUND
Dolby Digital*
Used to reproduce multichannel sound tracks of the software
encoded with Dolby Digital (
DIGITAL
).
• To enjoy the software encoded with Dolby Digital, connect the
source component using the digital terminal on the rear of this
receiver. (See page 7.)
Dolby Digital 5.1 ch encoding method (so-called discrete
multichannel digital audio format) records and digitally compresses
the left front channel, right front channel, center channel, left rear
channel, right rear channel, and LFE channel signals.
Since each channel is completely independent from the other
channel signals to avoid interference, you can obtain much better
sound quality with much stereo and surround effects.
Note:
Dolby Digital software can be roughly grouped into two categories
—multichannel (up to “5.1” channel) and 2 channel software. To enjoy
surround sounds while playing Dolby Digital 2 ch software, you can
use Dolby Pro Logic II.
■ DTS Digital Surround**
Used to reproduce multichannel sound tracks of the software

encoded with DTS Digital Surround (
• To enjoy the software encoded with DTS Digital Surround,
connect the source component using the digital terminal on the
rear of this receiver. (See page 7.)
DTS Digital Surround is another discrete multichannel digital
audio format available on CD, LD, and DVD software.
Compared to Dolby Digital, audio compression ratio is relatively
low. This fact allows DTS Digital Surround format to add breadth
and depth to the reproduced sounds. As a result, DTS Digital
Surround features natural, solid and clear sound.

■ DAP (Digital Acoustic Processor) modes
DAP modes have been designed to create important acoustic
surround elements.
The sound heard in a live club, dance club, hall or pavilion consists
of direct sound and indirect sound—early reflections and reflections
from behind. Direct sounds reach the listener directly without any
reflection. On the other hand, indirect sounds are delayed by the
distances of the ceiling and walls (see the diagram below).
These indirect sounds are important elements of the acoustic
surround effects. The DAP mode can reproduce a realistic sound
field by adding these indirect sounds.
DAP modes can be used when the front and rear speakers are
connected to this receiver (without respect to the center speaker
connection: no sound comes out of the center speaker even if it is
connected).
The following DAP modes are provided with this receiver:
LIVE CLUB: Gives the feeling of a live music club with a low
ceiling.
DANCE CLUB : Gives a throbbing bass beat.
HALL: Gives clear vocal and the feeling of a concert
hall.
PAVILION: Gives the spacious feeling of a pavilion with a
high ceiling.
■ All Channel Stereo
This mode can reproduce a larger stereo sound field using all the
connected (and activated) speakers.
All Channel Stereo can be used when the front and rear
speakers are connected to this receiver without respect to the
center speaker connection.
If the center speaker is connected and activated, the same phase of
the front left and right signals are output through the center speaker.
All Channel Stereo can be used while reproducing 2 channel stereo
software, either analog or digital except Dolby Digital and DTS
Digital Surround.
• When All Channel Stereo is selected, the DSP indicator lights up
on the display.

Sound reproduced from normal stereo
give you a real “being there” feeling.
• When one of the DAP modes is selected, the DSP indicator lights
up on the display.

About Relations between Speaker Layout and Surround Modes
Available Surround modes will vary depending on how many speakers are used with this receiver.
Make sure that you have set the speaker information correctly (see pages 12 to 14).
• If only front speakers are connected, you cannot use Surround modes.
• If rear speakers are not connected, you cannot use DAP modes and All Channel Stereo.
