the appliance due to lightning and
power-line surges.
16.
Power Lines – An outside antenna system
should not be located in the vicinity of
overhead power lines or other electric
light or power circuits, or where it can fall
into such power lines or circuits. When
installing an outside antenna system,
extreme care should be taken to keep
from touching such power lines or circuits
as contact with them might be fatal.
17.

18.
objects of any kind into the appliance
through openings as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short-out parts
that could result in a fire or electric shock.
Never spill liquid of any kind on the appliance.
19.
Servicing – Do not attempt to service the
appliance yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous
voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
20.
Damage Requiring Service – Unplug the
appliance form the wall outlet and refer
servicing to qualified service personnel
under the following conditions:
A. When the power-supply cord or plug is
damaged,
B. If liquid has been spilled, or objects
have fallen into the appliance,
C. If the appliance has been exposed to
rain or water,
D. If the appliance does not operate nor-
mally 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
appliance to its normal operation,
E. If the appliance has been dropped or
damaged in any way, and
F. When the appliance exhibits a distinct
change in performance – this indicates
a need for service.
21.

Notes
• Place the unit away from strong light such
as direct sunlight or inverted fluorescent
light which can prevent proper operation
of the remote controller.
• Using another remote controller of the
same type in the same room or using the
unit near equipment which uses infrared
rays may cause operational interference.
• Do not put any object such as a book on
the remote controller. The buttons of the
remote controller may be pressed by mistake and drain the batteries.
• Make sure the audio rack doors do not
have colored glass. Placing the unit
behind such doors may prevent proper
remote controller operation.
• If there is any obstacle between the
remote controller and the remote control
sensor, the remote controller will not
operate.
21
Setting the Clock
The ”ACCUCLOCK“ features an automatic
clock adjusting function automatically sets
the clock time by means of RDS broadcast
signals.
• The “ACCUCLOCK” feature is available
only on the European model, and only in
areas where RDS broadcasts are available.
• Adjust the clock as explained in “Setting
the clock manually” on page 24 if you are
using U.S. or Canadian models or if you
are using the unit in the area where RDS
broadcasts are unavailable.
Setting the clock automatically
(European models only)
ACCUCLOCK starts operating as soon as the
power cord is plugged in. It then searches for
an RDS broadcasting station which regularly
sends time signals and waits to receive such
time information. Do not operate any buttons until the clock setting is complete. The
R-805X retains the clock setting until you
unplug the power cord.
The following steps describe how to set the
clock automatically:
1. Plug in the power cord.
“AUTO” flashes slowly on the display.
• It may take about 5 minutes for the time
information to be received and displayed
after you plug in the power cord.
6. After the clock is initially set, it will be
adjusted periodically when the R-805X is
in Standby mode (all input source indicators are turned off) or in ENERGY SAVE
mode (the ENERGY SAVE indicator is lit).
Notes on using the “ACCUCLOCK” function:
• Make sure that your FM antenna has
been properly connected as explained on
page 18. It is strongly recommended that
you install an outdoor FM antenna since
the FM indoor antenna may not receive
RDS broadcasts well enough to allow
ACCUCLOCK to function properly.
• The clock will display the time in a 24
hour cycle. For example, 5:30 pm will be
displayed as “17:30”. (You can select a 12
hour cycle display setting. For more information, see page 25.)
• If RDS signals cannot be received, no RDS
station will be found.
Or if an RDS signal is present but the signal is not strong enough to allow the
ACCUCLOCK to automatically set the
time, “- -:- -” will lit on the display as
shown below. If this occurs, set the clock
manually. (See page 24.)
flashes slowly
2. Once an RDS station that sends time signals is detected, the indicator flashes
more rapidly.
flashes rapidly
3. Once the time signal is received from the
RDS station, “CLOCK ADJUSTED” will
scroll on the display.
4. The received time information (the day of
the week and the time) appears.
5. The clock starts running.
22
Adjust the clock manually.
• You may wish to adjust the clock manually
because the time information may differ
depending on the RDS station detected. If
so, follow the manual clock adjustment
procedure described on page 24.
• There may be cases in which you can listen to radio broadcasts but cannot use
the ACCUCLOCK function.
• Once activated, ACCUCLOCK will remember the RDS station it uses for several weeks
even if the power cord of this unit is
unplugged. If you move outside the service
area of the memorized RDS station and
find out that ACCUCLOCK is not functioning, see “Confirming/changing the RDS Station used by ACCUCLOCK” on page 23 to
change the memorized RDS station.
