• high humidity ® excessive vibration ® uneven surfaces (Place the unit on a fiat level surface.) Such conditions might damage the cabinet and/or other component parts and thereby shorten the unit’s service life.
9 It is very dangerous to use an AC power source of high voltage
such as for an air conditioner. A fire might be caused by such a connection.
« A DC power source can not be used.
Be sure to check the power source carefully, especially if on a ship or other place where DC is used.
* Avoid cuts, scratches or poor connection of the AC power cord, as
this may result in fire or electric shock.
Excessive bending, pulling or slicing of the cord should also be avoided.
» Do not pull on the cord when you are disconnecting the power, as
this could cause an electric shock. Grasp the plug firmly when you disconnect the power supply.
o Never touch the plug with wet hands or a serious electric shock
could result.
• Never attempt to repair, disassemble or reconstruct the unit if there seems to be a problem. A serious electric shock could result if you ignore this precaution ary measure.
© if a problem occurs during operation (the sound is interrupted,
indicators fail to light up, smoke is detected, etc.) contact your dealer or Authorized Service Center immediately,
o Disconnect the power supply if the unit will not be used for a long
time. Otherwise the operation life could be shortened.

CAUTION!

DO..NOT INSTALL OR PLACE THIS UNIT IN A BOOKCASE, BUILT IN CABINET OR IN ANOTHER CONFINED SPACE IN ORDER TO KEEP WELL VENTILATED CONDITION. ENSURE THAT CURTAINS AND ANY OTHER MATERIALS DO NOT OBSTRUCT THE VENTILATION CONDITION TO PREVENT
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK OR FIRE HAZARD DUE TO OVERHEATING.

CAUTION

' SFC is the abbreviation of Sound Field Control.
The SFC function gives presence and spread thereby enhancing
and enriching the music or movie. Read the following explanations in order to better understand how
to make your selection.
HALL
This mode imparts a reflection and spread which will make you feel
as if you are in a large concert hail.
CLUB
Like a jazz club, this mode provides an exciting and intimate atmos phere. It simulates the sound field of a relatively small room having a low ceiling and hard reflective surfaces, for a “live” sound with enhanced presence to bring the performers up close.

LIVE

Primarily for vocal pieces, this mode adds gloss to the vocals and
you’ll feel as though you were hearing a live stage performance.

THEATER

You can clearly perceive the directions and source of the movie. Real ambience of sound can also be recreated naturally using this mode. THEATER mode can be used with stereo sources not encoded with DOLBY SURROUND.

Troubleshooting guide
Before requesting service for this unit, check the chart below for a possible cause of the problem you are experiencing. Some simple checks or a minor adjustment on your part may eliminate the prob lem and restore proper operation.
Reference pages indicated in biack circles. (For example:
Problem
Probable cause(s)
While iistening io FiVt broadcasts
An unusual hissing noise is heard when listening to the broadcast in stereo, but not heard when listening monauraily.
Noise is excessive in both stereo and monaural broad casts.
The “STEREO” indicator or the “TUNED” indicator flick ers, without completely illu minating.
Excessive distortion in the
sound of stereo broadcasts.
A slight noise may be heard because the method used for modulation of FM stereo broadcasts is different than that used for.monaural broadcasts.
Poor location and/or direction of the antenna. Transmitting station is too far away.
Poor location and/or direction of the antenna. Transmitting station is too far away.
Nearby building or mountain.
■if you are in doubt about some of the check points, or if the reme dies indicated in the chart do not solve the problem, refer to the directory of Authorized Service Centers (enclosed with this unit) to locate a convenient service center, or consult your dealer for instructions.
Suggested remedy
® Try reducing the treble sound by using the treble
control. (®)
e Try changing the location, height and/or direction
of the antenna, (i®)
® If an indoor antenna is being used, change to an
outdoor antenna. (Ì0))
© Try using an antenna with more elements.
« Try changing the location, height and/or direction
of the antenna. (®)
® If an indoor antenna is being used, change to an
outdoor antenna. (®)
©Try using an antenna with more elements.
Whsie listening to AM broadcasts
An unusual “beat” sound Is heard.
A low-pitched “hum” sound
is heard when the station is
tuned.
A strange hissing noise is produced continuously or intermittently.
Unit is being used at the same time as the
television set.
Interference from adjacent broadcast signal.
The AM loop antenna connection wires are too
close to the power cord. The power supply frequency from the power cord
is modulated and heard from the speakers. Caused by the “discharge phenomenon" and the
“oscillation phenomenon” of electric appliances (such as fluorescent lights, TV, small series-type motors, rectification equipment, etc.).
Common Problems
Power will not switch ON.
No sound is heard.
Sound stops during a per formance, or no sound is heard when the power is switched ON. (The word “OVERLOAD" appears on the display.)
The power cord plug is not completely inserted.
The speaker indicator(s) is(are) turned off. The muting function is ON. Connections to the speaker systems or external
equipment are incomplete or incorrect. The incorrect input source has been selected. The protection circuitry has functioned because
the positive and negative speaker connection wires have “shorted,” speaker systems with an impedance less than the indicated rated impedance of this unit have been used or are
under severe use, such as through excessive vol ume, excessive power or being in an excessively hot environment.
©Turn off the television set, or use this unit farther
away from it.
©Try reducing the treble sound by using the treble
control. (®)
« Place the antenna connection wires and the power
cord farther apart.
9 install a special outdoor antenna. (®)
© Try placing this unit farther away from such equip
ment.
® Confirm that the power cord plug is connected
completely. ©Turn on the speaker indicator(s). (®) « Press the muting button. (®)
• Check that all wires and cables are correctly con nected. (0-®,
* Check that the correct source is selected.(©)
• Switch off the power, and after determining and
correcting the cause, switch on the power once again.
• Use a speaker system of the proper impedance
rating. (®-®)
