5) Do not use this apparatus near water.
6) Clean only with dry cloth.
7) Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with
the manufacturer’s instructions.
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 groundingtype 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.
Tape information
∫ Ta pes
≥You can use tapes with the VHS and S-VHS marks, but this unit is
unable to make full use of the characteristics of S-VHS tapes.
≥Break out the tape’s tab to prevent
accidental erasure. Cover the hole with a
double layer of adhesive tape when you
want to use the tape for recording again.
Ta b
∫ S-VHS Quasi Playback (SQPB)
You can play tapes recorded with the S-VHS system, however some
noise may occur with some types and this unit cannot take
advantage of S-VHS’s high resolution.
This unit cannot make S-VHS recordings.
Listening caution
∫ Tape care
Poor quality or damaged tapes can cause the heads to become dirty
and malfunction. Store your tapes carefully and discard when they
become dirty or damaged.
Never use tapes on which juice has been spilt or those that are
extremely damaged since this will not only cause the heads to
become dirty, but will also make the unit malfunction.
EST. 1924
Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you’ve just purchased is only the start of your musical enjoyment. Now it’s time to
consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your equipment offers. This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association’s
Consumer Electronics Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound come
through loud and clear without annoying blaring or distortion—and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing.
We recommend that you avoid prolonged exposure to excessive noise.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level” adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds “normal” can actually be
loud and harmful to your hearing.
Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
≥Start your volume control at a low setting.
≥Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
≥Set the dial and leave it there.
Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the future. After all, we want you listening for a lifetime.

Main unit
Place the front, center, and surround speakers at
approximately the same distance from the seating position.
The angles in the diagram are approximate.
≥Use only supplied speakers
Using other speakers can damage the unit and sound quality will
be negatively affected.
≥Set the speakers up on an even surface to prevent them from
falling. Take proper precautions to prevent the speakers from
falling if you cannot set them up on an even surface.
Main unit
[Note]
Keep your speakers at least 10 mm (13/32q) away from the system
for proper ventilation.
Center speaker
≥Vibration caused by the center speaker can disrupt the picture if it
is placed directly on the television. Put the center speaker on a
rack or shelf.
≥To prevent the speakers from falling do not place the speakers
directly on top of the television.
Subwoofer
Place to the right or left of the television, on the floor or a sturdy
shelf so that it won’t cause vibration.
Leave 10 cm (4q) at the rear for ventilation.
➜ See page 11 for other
speaker setup options.
Notes on speaker use
≥You can damage your speakers and shorten their useful life if you
play sound at high levels over extended periods.
≥Reduce the volume in the following cases to avoid damage.
–When playing distorted sound.
–When the speakers are receiving howling from a record player,
noise from FM broadcasts, or continuous signals from an
oscillator, test disc, or electronic instrument.
–When adjusting the sound quality.
–When turning the unit on or off.
Caution
≥The main unit and supplied speakers are
only to be used as indicated in this setup.
Failure to do so may lead to damage to the
amplifier and/or the speakers, and may result
in the risk of fire. Consult a qualified service
person if damage has occurred or if you
experience a sudden change in performance.
≥Do not attempt to attach these speakers to
walls using methods other than those
described in this manual.

to the television.
It does not carry other signals from this unit, so make sure you
connect the television to VIDEO OUT. Contact your dealer if your
television does not have the corresponding terminal.

The video signals on DVDs and videotapes have copyright
protection. The video may not be shown correctly if you connect
through an A/V selector or other equipment.
If irregular coloring occurs on your television
The supplied speakers are designed to be used close to a
television, but the picture may be affected with some televisions
and setup combinations.
If this occurs, turn the television off for about 30 minutes.
The television’s demagnetizing function should correct the
problem. If it persists, move the speakers further away from the
television.
