Precautions
1. Warranty Claim
You can find the serial number on the rear panel of this unit. In
case of warranty claim, please report this number.
2. AC Fuse
The fuse is located inside the chassis and is not user-serviceable. If power does not come on, contact your Onkyo authorized service station.
3. Care
From time to time you should wipe the front and rear panels and
the cabinet with a soft cloth. For heavier dirt, dampen a soft
cloth in a weak solution of mild detergent and water, wring it
out dry, and wipe off the dirt. Following this, dry immediately
with a clean cloth. Do not use rough material, thinners, alcohol
or other chemical solvents or cloths since these could damage
the finish or remove the panel lettering.
4. Power WARNING
BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE UNIT FOR THE FIRST TIME,
READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY.
The voltage of the available power supply differs according to
•
country or region. Be sure that the power supply voltage in the
area where this unit will be used meets the required voltage (e.g.,
AC 230 V, 50 Hz) written on the rear panel.
For British model
Replacement and mounting of an AC plug on the power supply
cord of this unit should be performed only by qualified service
personnel.
IMPORTANT
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the
following code:
Blue : Neutral
Brown: Live
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this apparatus
may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the
terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter N or coloured black.
The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured red.
IMPORTANT
A 5 amp fuse is fitted in this plug. Should the fuse need to be
replaced, please ensure that the replacement fuse has a rating of
5 amps and that it is approved by ASTA or BSI to BS1362.
Check for the ASTA mark or the BSI mark on the body of the
fuse.
IF THE FITTED MOULDED PLUG IS UNSUITABLE FOR
THE SOCKET OUTLET IN YOUR HOME THEN THE FUSE
SHOULD BE REMOVED AND THE PLUG CUT OFF AND
DISPOSED OF SAFELY. THERE IS A DANGER OF
SEVERE ELECTRICAL SHOCK IF THE CUT OFF PLUG IS
INSERTED INTO ANY 13 AMP SOCKET.
If in any doubt, please consult a qualified electrician.
Features
Onkyo’ s Theater -Dimensional Sound
Theater-Dimensional Virtual Surround system developed
by Onkyo creates the optimum home theater environment
by adjusting the listening distance and the width of the
sound output from the front speakers.
Onkyo’s Intelligent Power Management System
(IPM)
Onkyo’s intelligent power management system (IPM)
turns on/off the complete system, automatically (audio
triggered), simply by turning on/off the television.
OMF cone
Onkyo Micro Fiber (OMF) Speaker Cones, a major
advancement in speaker design developed exclusively by
Onkyo, use a light-weight silk fiber to greatly improve
the damping coefficient — the result is clearly separated
fundamental second and third harmonics, superior ambiance and a much more accurate, natural sound.
Easy-to-setup and Easy-to-use home theater system
Connecting this unit to your TV enables you to enjoy
home theater environment. Program the remote controller
functions of your TV or VCR into the PHC-5’s remote
controller (included in the package) for much easier operation.

NOTE
•
Do not mix battery types. Do not use a new battery and an old battery at the same time.
•
If you do not plan to use the remote controller for a long period of time, remove the batteries from the compartment to prevent battery liquid from leaking.
•
Leaving dead batteries inside the compartment for an extended period may cause corrosion, which may damage the remote controller. I f
the unit does not respond well to remote control operation, replace the old batteries with new ones immediately.
•
The life of the included manganese batteries is about six months, although it depends on how often you use the remote controller. Onkyo
recommends that you use alkaline AA (LR6 or AM-3)-size batteries for replacement.
Installation
W e can usually identify the source of a sound based on its loudness and the time difference (delay) between the sound reaching
our left ear and right ear. The Virtual Surround system of this unit uses this characteristic of human hearing. This system, along
with the DSP (Digital Signal Processor) technology, creates an effect that makes you think the sound is coming from all around
you, even though the sound is output from only two front speakers. The Virtual Surround system limits the sweet spot (effective listening position) due to its nature. That is, the Virtual Surround system of this unit sets an optimum listening position at
any point on the center axis when you face the unit. Any position not on the axis will have less effect. Also, if the room has
many objects that reflect sound or that cause uneven reflection, the optimum effect may not be obtained.
The effect of the subwoofer varies significantly depending on its location. Generally, placing the subwoofer in the corner of the
room would be the most effective.

Installation Precautions
Install the unit on a level, stable surface. The unit may fall if you install it on a tilted or unstable surface.
Follow the requirements below to place the unit on top of a TV:
The TV surface on the top side is larger than the bottom surface of the unit.
•
The TV surface is level and not tilted.
•
The TV is not on an unstable surface.
•
To prevent the PHC-5 from falling, be sure to attach the anti-slippage pads (included in the package) on the bottom of the unit,
and use a strong rope to fix the unit against the wall for safety, as shown in the figure.
If you cannot fix the unit using a rope, attach the dual-sided fixing tape (included in the package) to the bottom of the PHC-5 to
fix the unit to the TV.
Note 1: The dual-sided fixing tape (white) uses strong adhesive. It will be v ery dif ficult to remo v e the tape once it is attached to
the surface.
Note 2: Make sure that the surface on which you wish to attach the anti-slippage pad or tape is not dirty or wet. Otherwise, the
pad or tape will not be fixed to the surface.
Do not place the unit in the following
locations:
Where the width of the TV
is narrower than the unit.
Where the top surface
of the TV is tilted.
