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 23˚F and 95˚F (–5˚C and 35˚C).

• 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 (MW/LW) 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 (–).

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 (MW/LW) 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.

Getting Started

Connecting the FM and AM (MW/LW) Antennas

If AM (MW/LW) reception is poor, connect single vinyl-covered wire (not supplied).

AM (MW/LW) Loop Antenna (supplied)

Getting Started

AM (MW/LW) antenna connection

Connect the AM (MW/LW) loop antenna supplied to the AM LOOP terminals. Turn the loop until you have the best reception.

• If reception is poor, connect an outdoor single vinyl-covered wire to the AM EXT terminal. Keep the AM (MW/LW) loop antenna connected.

FM antenna connection

Connect the FM antenna supplied to the FM 75 Ω COAXIAL terminal as temporary measure. Extend the supplied FM antenna horizontally.

• If reception is poor, connect an outdoor antenna. Before attaching a 75 Ω coaxial cable (with a standard type connector), disconnect the supplied FM antenna.

Notes:

• If the AM (MW/LW) loop antenna wire is covered with vinyl, remove the vinyl while twisting it as shown to the right.

• Make sure the antenna conductors do not touch any other terminals, connecting cords and power cord. This could cause poor reception.

After connecting the front, center, rear speakers and/or a subwoofer, set the speaker setting information properly to obtain the best possible DSP effect. For details, see page 15.

CAUTION:

Use speakers with the SPEAKER IMPEDANCE indicated by the speaker terminals.

Connecting the front, center, and rear speakers

For each speaker, connect the (+) and (–) terminals on the rear panel to the (+) and (–) terminals marked on the speakers respectively.

1 Cut, twist and remove the insulation at the end of

each speaker cord (not supplied).

2 Open the terminal, then insert the speaker cord. 3 Close the terminal.

Connecting the subwoofer speaker

By connecting a subwoofer, you can enhance the bass or reproduce the original LFE signals recorded in the digital software.

Powered subwoofer (example)

Connect the input jack of a powered subwoofer to the SUBWOOFER OUT jack on the rear panel, using a cable with RCA pin plugs (not supplied).

• Refer also to the manual supplied for your subwoofer.

Since bass sound is non-directional, you can place a subwoofer wherever you like. Normally place it in front of you.

For TV and video format

When the TV is equipped with the plural SCART terminals, see the manual supplied with the TV to check the available video signals for each terminal, then connect SCART cable correctly. For details, see the manuals supplied with the TV.

This unit cannot change the video signals (S-video or Composite). When the video signal of one video component is different from that of the other (for example, one is Svideo, the other is Composite), you may not see the pictures appropriately. In this case, unify the video signals of all the video components into S-video or Composite, or you need to switch the video signal of TV each time you change the source.

For an analogue decoder

To watch or record a scrambled program on your VCR, connect the analogue decoder to your VCR and select the scrambled channel on your VCR. If there is not an appropriate terminal for the decoder on your VCR, connect the decoder to the TV. Refer also to the manuals supplied with these equipment.

Connecting the Power Cord

Before plugging the unit into an AC outlet, make sure that all connections have been made.

Plug the power cord into an AC outlet.

Basic Operations

This manual mainly explains operations using the buttons and controls on the front panel. You can also use the buttons on the remote control if they have the similar names (or marks) as those on the front panel. If operations using the remote control are different from those using the front panel, they are then explained.
