manufacturer.
12.
Use only with the cart, stand,
tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer, or
sold with the apparatus.
When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/
apparatus combination to
avoid injury from tip-over.
13. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or
when unused for long periods of time.
14. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
Servicing is required when the apparatus has been
damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or
plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects
have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has
been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate
normally, or has been dropped.
En-2
15. Damage Requiring Service

B. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen
into the apparatus,
C. If the apparatus has been exposed to rain or
water,
D. If the apparatus does not operate normally by
following the operating instructions. Adjust only
those controls that are covered by the operating
instructions as an improper adjustment of other
controls may result in damage and will often
require extensive work by a qualified technician
to restore the apparatus to its normal operation,
E. If the apparatus has been dropped or damaged in
any way, and
F. When the apparatus exhibits a distinct change in
performance this indicates a need for service.
16. Object and Liquid Entry
Never push objects of any kind into the apparatus
through openings as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short-out parts that could result in a
fire or electric shock.
The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or
splashing and no objects filled with liquids, such as
vases shall be placed on the apparatus.
Don’t put candles or other burning objects on top of
this unit.
17. Batteries
Always consider the environmental issues and follow local regulations when disposing of batteries.
18. If you install the apparatus in a built-in installation,
such as a bookcase or rack, ensure that there is adequate ventilation.
Leave 20 cm (8") of free space at the top and sides
and 10 cm (4") at the rear. The rear edge of the shelf
or board above the apparatus shall be set 10 cm (4")
away from the rear panel or wall, creating a fluelike gap for warm air to escape.

About Connections
• Before making any connections, read the manuals
supplied with your other components.
• Don’t connect the AC adapter until you’ve completed
and double-checked all connections.
LINE IN
Installing the iPod Universal Dock Adapter
Connecting a Portable Audio Device
Connect the ABX-100’s LINE IN jack on the rear panel
to the portable audio device’s output jack.
Depending on the type of output jack on the portable
audio device, you may need to purchase a suitable cable.
The ABX-100’s LINE IN jack accepts a stereo miniplug.
Notes:
• Use a connecting cable that doesn’t have any
attenuation resistors in it.
• If you connect a portable audio device’s headphone
output to the ABX-100’s LINE IN jack, turn down the
volume on the portable audio device before you
connect it.
If the ABX-100 seems quiet even with the volume turned
up, try increasing the volume on the portable audio
device.
Caution Regarding Placement
Since the sound of the speakers exits the ABX-100 from
the side, we recommend that you leave at least 20 cm of
space at each side.
Move the slide cover to the left to expose the iPod dock.
First, with the adapter slot facing the back, fit in the front
of the adapter and then press in the back until a click is
heard. To remove the adapter, lift the back side up. If the
adapter is difficult to remove, insert a thin object into the
slot and lift the adapter up.
Use the Universal Dock Adapter that’s appropriate for
your model of iPod/iPhone.
If a Universal Dock Adapter was included with your
iPod, use that adapter.
If none was included, purchase the appropriate adapter
separately.
Note:
• Inserting your iPod/iPhone into the dock without the
appropriate adapter may damage the dock connector.

Power
Can’t turn on the ABX-100.
• Make sure that the AC adapter is properly plugged
into the wall outlet, and that the DC IN connection has
been made correctly (see page 7).
• Unplug the AC adapter from the wall outlet, wait 10
seconds or more, then plug it in again.
The ABX-100 turns off unexpectedly.
• If the sleep timer has been set and the SLEEP indicator
En-14
is shown on the display, the ABX-100 will turn off
automatically after a specified period (see page 13).
• When timed playback finishes, the ABX-100
automatically switches to Standby mode (see
page 12).
Audio
There’s no sound.
• Make sure the ABX-100’s volume is not set too low
(see page 7).
• Make sure the correct input source is selected (see
page 7).
• Make sure the ABX-100 is not muted (see page 8).
• Check all connections and correct as necessary (see
page 7).
The sound quality is not good.
• The sound quality can be affected by strong magnetic
fields, such as that from a TV. Try moving any such
devices away from the ABX-100.
• If you have any devices that emit high-intensity radio
waves near the ABX-100, such as a cellular phone
that’s being used to make a call, the ABX-100 may
output noise.
Audio output is intermittent when the
ABX-100 is subjected to vibration.
The ABX-100 is not a portable device. Use it in a
location that’s not subject to shock or vibration.
Troubleshooting—Continued
iPod/iPhone
There’s no sound.
• Make sure your iPod/iPhone is properly seated in the
ABX-100’s iPod dock. Even very thin iPod/iPhone
cases can prevent the iPod/iPhone from seating
properly on the dock connector, so always remove any
case before inserting your iPod/iPhone (see page 7).
• Make sure the ABX-100 is turned on, the input source
is set to iPod, and the volume is not set too low.
• Make sure that your iPod/iPhone is compatible with
the system (see page 4).
Can’t control your iPod with the ABX-100’s
remote controller.
• Make sure your iPod/iPhone is properly seated in the
ABX-100’s iPod dock. Even very thin iPod/iPhone
cases can prevent the iPod/iPhone from seating
properly on the dock connector, so always remove any
case before inserting your iPod/iPhone (see page 7).
• You may not be able to control your iPod/iPhone
immediately after inserting it into the ABX-100’s iPod
dock. In this case, wait a few moments until your iPod/
iPhone wakes up.
• Depending on your iPod/iPhone model, its software
version, or the content your playing, some functions
may not work as expected (see page 9).
• If your iPod/iPhone does not work, remove it, wait a
few moments, and then connect it again.
• Check whether there might be a problem with your
iPod/iPhone. For an iPod touch or iPhone, make sure
that the app is working correctly.
External Components
No sound is heard from your turntable.
• Make sure the turntable has a built-in phono equalizer.
If the turntable doesn’t have a phono equalizer builtin, you must provide one.
Timers
The timers don’t work.
• Make sure the clock has been set correctly (see
page 11).
• Timed operation will fail if the ABX-100 is already on
at the specified On time, so make sure it’s set to
Standby (see page 11).
• The timer may overlap with another timer. If you
program two timers, make sure they don’t overlap.
• If you press the [SLEEP] or [TIMER] button while a
timed operation is in progress, the timer will be
cancelled and the ABX-100 won’t turn off at the
specified Off time (see page 12).
• Make sure the timer is set to suitable volume setting
(see page 12).
Clock
The clock displays “--:--”
• A power outage has occurred and the time setting lost.
Set the clock again (see page 11). The timers will all
be set to Timer Off, so you’ll need to turn on any
necessary timers (see page 12). The timer settings will
be preserved.
Remote Controller
The remote controller doesn’t work
properly.
• Replace the battery with a new one.
• The remote controller is too far away from the
ABX-100, or there’s an obstacle between them (see
page 5).
• The ABX-100’s remote control sensor is being
subjected to bright light (inverter-type fluorescent
light or sunlight).
The ABX-100 contains a microcomputer. In very rare
situations, severe interference, noise from an external
source, or static electricity may cause it to malfunction
or lockup. In the unlikely event that this should
happen, unplug the AC adapter, wait at least 10
seconds, and then plug it back in again. If this doesn’t
resolve the issue, reset the ABX-100 to its factory
defaults (see page 14).
