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 (–).
English
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.

IMPORTANT:
This unit is equipped with the following video terminals: composite
video, S-video and component video terminals. You can use any of
these three to connect a video component.
However, remember that the video signals from one type of these
input terminals are output only through the video output
terminals of the same type.
Therefore, if a recording video component and a playing video
component are connected to the unit through the different types of
video terminals, you cannot record the picture from the playing
component onto the recording component. In addition, if the TV and a
playing video component are connected to the unit through the
different types of video terminals, you cannot view the playback
picture from the playing component on the TV.

Digital coaxial cable (not supplied)
between digital coaxial terminals
Digital optical cable (not supplied)
between digital optical terminals
When the component has a digital coaxial
output terminal, connect it to the DIGITAL 1
(DVD) terminal with the digital coaxial cable
(not supplied).
When the component has a digital optical
output terminal, connect it to the DIGITAL 2
(CD) terminal, using the digital optical cable
(not supplied).
Before connecting a digital
optical cable, unplug the
protective plug.
Keep the power cord away from the connecting cables and the
antenna. The power cord may cause noise or screen interference. We
recommend that you use a coaxial cable to connect the antenna,
since it is well-shielded against interference.
CAUTIONS:
• 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.
