General Information

English

This system complies with the FCC rules, Part 15 and with 21 CFR 1040.10. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: – This device may not cause harmful interference, and – This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

Environmental Information

All unnecessary packaging has been omitted. We have tried to make the packaging easy to separate into three materials: cardboard (box), polystyrene foam (buffer) and polyethylene (bags, protective foam sheet).

Your system consists of materials which can be recycled and reused if disassembled by a specialized company. Please observe the local regulations regarding the disposal of packaging materials, exhausted batteries and old equipment.

Safety Information

● Before operating the system, check that the operating voltage indicated on the typeplate (or the voltage indication beside the voltage selector) of your system is identical with the voltage of your local power supply. If not, please consult your dealer.

● Place the system on a flat, hard and stable surface.

● Place the system in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent internal heat build-up in your system. Allow at least 10 cm (4 inches) clearance from the rear and the top of the unit and 5 cm (2 inches) from each side.

● Do not expose the system, batteries or discs to excessive moisture, rain, sand or heat sources caused by heating equipment or direct sunlight.

● If the system is brought directly from a cold to a warm location, or is placed in a very damp room, moisture may condense on the lens of the disc unit inside the system. Should this occur, the CD player would not operate normally. Leave the power on for about one hour with no disc in the system until normal playback is possible.

● The mechanical par ts of the set contain selflubricating bearings and must not be oiled or lubricated.

● When the system is switched to Standby mode, it is still consuming some power. To disconnect the system from the power supply completely, remove the AC power plug from the wall socket.

Supplied accessories

– Remote control – Batteries (two AA size) for remote control – AM loop antenna – FM wire antenna – AC power cord – CS-750 speaker package (includes one pair of

surround speakers and one center speaker)

C Speakers Connection

Front Speakers

Connect the speaker wires to the SPEAKERS (FRONT) terminals, right speaker to "R" and left speaker to "L", colored (marked) wire to "+" and black (unmarked) wire to "-".

¶ Fully insert the stripped portion of the speaker

wire into the terminal as shown.

Rear Surround Speakers

Connect the speaker wires to the REAR SURROUND terminals, right speaker to "R" and left speaker to "L", colored (marked) wire to "+" and black (unmarked) wire to "-".

Center Speaker

Connect the speaker wires to the CENTER terminal, colored (marked) wire to "+" and black (unmarked) wire to "-".

Notes: – For optimal sound performance, use the supplied speakers. – Do not connect more than one speaker to any one pair of +/- speaker terminals. – Do not connect speakers with an impedance lower than the speakers supplied. Please refer to the SPECIFICATIONS section of this manual.

Optional Connections

The optional equipment and connecting cords are not supplied. Refer to the operating instructions of the connected equipment for details.

Connecting other equipment to your system

Connect the audio left and right OUT terminals

of a TV, VCR, Laser Disc player, DVD player or CD Recorder to the AUX/CDR IN terminals.

Note: – If you are connecting equipment with a monaural output (a single audio out terminal), connect it to the AUX/CDR IN left terminal. Alternatively, you can use a “single to double” cinch cable (still be monaural sound).

Subwoofer Out Connection Connect the subwoofer to the SUBWOOFER OUT terminal. The subwoofer reproduces just

the low bass sound effect (explosions or the rumble of spaceships, for example).

Inserting batteries into the Remote Control

Insert two batteries (Type R06 or AA) into the remote control with the correct polarity as indicated by the + and - symbols inside the battery compar tment.

pg 001-031/P750/37-Eng 3/7/01, 4:12 PM10

CAUTION! – Remove batteries if they are exhausted or will not be used for a long time. – Do not use old and new or different types of batteries in combination. – Batteries contain chemical substances, so they should be disposed off properly.
