8.Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
9.Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
10.Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.
11.Only use attachments/accessories specified by the 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.
15.Damage Requiring Service
Unplug the apparatus from 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 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.

Precautions
1.Recording Copyright—Unless it’s for personal use only, recording copyrighted material is illegal without the permission of the copyright holder.
2.AC Fuse—The AC fuse inside the TX-SR502/ TX-SR502E is not user-serviceable. If you cannot turn on the TX-SR502/TX-SR502E, contact your Onkyo dealer.
3.Care—Occasionally you should dust the TX-SR502/TX-SR502E all over with a soft cloth. For stubborn stains, use a soft cloth dampened with a weak solution of mild detergent and water. Dry the TX-SR502/TX-SR502E immediately afterwards with a clean cloth. Don’t use abrasive cloths, thinners, alcohol, or other chemical solvents, because they may 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.
AC outlet voltages vary from country to country. Make sure that the voltage in your area meets the voltage requirements printed on the TX-SR502/ TX-SR502E’s rear panel (e.g., AC 230 V, 50 Hz or AC 120 V, 60 Hz).
The Worldwide model has a voltage selector for compatibility with power systems around the world. Before you plug in this model, make sure that the voltage selector is set to the correct voltage for your area.
For American model
Setting the [STANDBY/ON] switch to STANDBY does not fully shutdown the TX-SR502. If you do not intend to use the TX-SR502 for an extended period, remove the power cord from the AC outlet.
Memory backup
The TX-SR502/TX-SR502E uses a battery-less memory backup system in order to retain radio presets and other settings when it’s unplugged or in the case of a power failure. Although no batteries are required, the TX-SR502/TX-SR502E must be plugged into an AC outlet in order to charge the backup system.
(On non-American models, the TX-SR502/ TX-SR502E’s POWER switch must be set to ON in order to charge the backup system.) Once it has been charged, the TX-SR502/TX-SR502E will retain the settings for several weeks, although this depends on the environment and will be shorter in humid climates.
For British models
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 ampere fuse is fitted in this plug. Should the fuse need to be replaced, please ensure that the replacement fuse has a rating of 5 amperes 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 AMPERE SOCKET.
If in any doubt, consult a qualified electrician.

Installing the Batteries
1 To open the battery compartment, press the small hollow and slide off the cover.
2 Insert the two supplied batteries (AA/R6) in accordance with the polarity diagram inside the battery compartment.
3 Put the cover onto the remote controller and slide it shut.
Notes:
•The batteries should last for about six months, although this will vary with usage.
•If the remote controller doesn’t work reliably, try replacing the batteries.
•Don’t mix new and old batteries or different types of batteries.
•If you intend not to use the remote controller for a long time, remove the batteries to prevent damage from leakage or corrosion.
•Expired batteries should be removed as soon as possible to prevent damage from leakage or corrosion.
Using the Remote Controller
To use the remote controller, point it at the TX-SR502/ TX-SR502E’s remote control sensor, as shown below.

Notes:
•The remote controller may not work reliably if the TX-SR502/TX-SR502E is subjected to bright light, such as direct sunlight or inverter-type fluorescent lights. Keep this in mind when installing.
•If another remote controller of the same type is used in the same room, or the TX-SR502/TX-SR502E is installed close to equipment that uses infrared rays, the remote controller may not work reliably.
•Don’t put anything, such as a book, on the remote controller, because the buttons may be pressed inadvertently, thereby draining the batteries.
•The remote controller may not work reliably if the TX-SR502/TX-SR502E is installed in a rack behind colored glass doors. Keep this in mind when installing.
•The remote controller will not work if there’s an obstacle between it and the TX-SR502/TX-SR502E’s remote control sensor.

Connecting Your Speakers
Enjoying Home Theater
You can use two sets of speakers with the TX-SR502/TX-SR502E: speaker set A and speaker set B.
Speaker set A should be installed in your main listening room and can be used with Dolby Digital and DTS surround material. Each speaker must be positioned at a specific location in your listening room to get the best from surround sound material. The following illustration shows the best positions for your surround-sound speakers.
Speaker set B can be installed in another room and used with stereo and mono material. Speakers can be positioned in the standard position for stereo speakers or however you like.
Front left and right speakers
These output the overall sound.Their role in a home theater is to provide a solid anchor for the sound image. They should be positioned facing the listener at about ear level, and equidistant from the TV. Angle them inward so as to create a triangle, with the
listener at the apex. |

Speaker Configuration
For the best surround-sound experience, you should connect six speakers and a powered subwoofer.
No matter how many speakers you use, a powered subwoofer is recommended for a powerful and solid bass sound. Before using the TX-SR502/TX-SR502E, you must specify which speakers are connected and their sizes (see page 32). To get the very best from your surround-sound system, you should also specify the distance between the listener and each individual speaker so that the sound from each speaker arrives at the listener’s ears at the same time (see page 48). In addition, you should set the level of each individual speaker to achieve an equal balance (see page 49.)

Connecting Your Speakers—Continued
Connecting Your Speakers
Before you connect your speakers, read the following:
•Disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet.
•Read the instructions supplied with your speakers.
•Pay close attention to speaker wiring polarity. In other words, connect positive (+) terminals only to positive
(+) terminals, and negative (–) terminals only to negative (–) terminals. If you get them the wrong way around, the sound will be out of phase and will sound odd.
•Only use speakers with an impedance of between 6 and 16 ohms. If you use speakers with a lower impedance, and use the amplifier at high volume levels for a long period of time, the built-in protection circuit may be activated.
•Unnecessarily long or very thin speaker cables may affect the sound quality and should be avoided.
•Be careful not to short the positive and negative connections.
Doing so may damage the AV
Receiver.
•Don’t connect more than one cable to each speaker terminal. Doing so may damage the AV Receiver.
•If you want to connect a single speaker instead of a pair, connect it to either the left or right speaker terminals, not both.

Once the TX-SR502/TX-SR502E is ready for use, you’ll need to tune into an AM radio station and adjust the position of the AM antenna to achieve the best possible reception.
Keep the antenna as far away as possible from the TX-SR502/TX-SR502E, TV, speaker cables, and power cords.
If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied indoor AM loop antenna, try using it with a commercially available outdoor AM antenna (see page 19).
Caution: Be careful that you don’t injure yourself when using thumbtacks.
