Connection of the System Accessories

Connect the antenna as shown in the figure. Do not plug the power cord into a wall AC outlet until the connection has been completed.
Connection of the Accessory Antenna
FM indoor antenna
The accessory antenna is for temporary indoor use only. For stable signal reception we recommend using an out­door antenna. Remove the indoor antenna if you connect one outdoors.

tion condition.
3 Fix the antenna.

AM loop antenna
The supplied antenna is for indoor use. Place it as far as possible from the main system, TV set, speaker cords and power cord, and set it to a direction which provides the best reception.
Assembling the antenna

1. Color irregularities on the TV screen may also be produced depending on the method how the speakers are installed. When color irregularities are observed after the speaker installation, first turn the TV off, wait for 15 to 30 minutes and turn
it on again: The interference may be improved by the self-demagnetizing function of the TV. If the color irregularities still remain, install the speakers more apart from the TV.
2. If a source of magnetism such as a magnet is located near the speakers, its interaction with the speakers may cause
color irregularities on the TV screen. Also take care of this point when installing the speakers.
3. Due to induction by the electromagnetic waves produced by a TV, the speakers may produce sound even when the stereo unit is turned off. In this case also, install the speakers more apart from the TV.
CAUTION
Be sure to adhere to the following, or proper ventilation will be blocked causing damage or fire hazard. ÷ Leave some space around the unit (from the largest outside dimension including projection) equal to or greater than,
shown below.
Back panel : 10 cm
1. Be sure to insert all connection cords securely. If their connections are imperfect, the sound may not be produced or noise may interfere.
2. Before plugging or unplugging a connection cord, be sure to unplug the power cord from the wall AC outlet. If connection cords are plugged or unplugged with the power cord left plugged in, malfunction or damage may result.

When a DTS-encoded disc (CDs, LDs, DVDs) is played, noise may interfere with the headphone output. To enjoy DTS digital surround playback through headphones, connect an external 5.1­channel DTS digital surround decoder system to the digital output of the DVD player and use the headphones jack of your amplifier or receiver.

DTS disclaimer clause
When playing DTS-encoded (CDs, LDs, DVDs), excessive noise will be exhibited from the analog stereo outputs. To avoid possible damage to the audio system, the consumer should take proper precautions when the analog stereo outputs of the DVD player is connected to an amplification system. To enjoy DTS Digital Surround™ playback, an external 5.1 channel DTS Digital Surround™ decoder system must be connected to the digital output (S/P DIF, AES/EBU, or TosLink) of the DVD player.
1. This unit always down-mixes multi-channel surround audio into 2-channel audio and outputs it from the AUDIO CD-R OUT, DIGITAL OUT OPTICAL and PHONES jacks. However, with certain discs, this unit outputs only the Front (L/R) channel signals in place of the down-mixed 2-channel signals.
2. In case an associated system component is connected, also read the instruction manual of the component.
3. Insert the optical-fiber cable straight into the connector until it clicks.
4. Never bend or bundle the optical-fiber cable.
