CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT LUOKAN 1 LASERLAITE KLASS 1 LASERAPPARAT

• The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing.

• No objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus.

• Do not use where there are extremes of temperature (below 5°C or exceeding 40°C) or where direct sunlight may strike it.

• Because of the DVD player’s extremely low noise and wide dynamic range, there might be a tendency to set the volume on the amplifier unnecessarily high. Doing so may produce an excessively large output from the amplifier which could damage your speakers.

• Sudden changes in the ambient temperature may cause condensation to form on the video head or the optical lens inside the unit. If this happens, take out the disc, leave the unit for about 2 hours, and then proceed to operate.

• When carrying the unit, be sure to remove any disc which may be inside and turn the power off. Wait at least 10 seconds, then unplug the mains lead from the AC outlet. Carrying the unit with a disc inside may damage the disc and/or the unit.

• Do not install these equipments in a confined space, such as a book case or built in cabinet.

CAUTION – USE OF CONTROLS OR ADJUSTMENTS OR PERFORMANCE OF PROCEDURES OTHER THAN THOSE SPECIFIED HEREIN MAY RESULT IN HAZARDOUS RADIATION EXPOSURE.

This set complies with the EMC Directive 89/336 and with the LVD Directive 73/23.

• Placing the main unit and powered subwoofer in a well ventilated area is strongly recommended. Do not place any object on the top of the unit. Do not block ventilation holes. The cabinet of the unit warms up when it is used for a long time, but it is not a malfunction.

Unwind the aerial wires, then connect them to the AM-IN terminals. Place the loop aerial in a position which yields the best AM reception, or attach it to a wall or other surface.

In areas close to a transmitter the simple indoor aerial is sufficient to receive broadcasts. Extend the aerial wire as straight as possible and, while listening to the sound from the system, secure it in a position which yields minimal distortion and noise. In fringe areas or where reception is distorted or noisy, an FM

Note: To minimize noise, the speaker, mains and any other leads should not come close to the indoor or external aerial lead and AM loop aerial. Do not place the aerial leads close to the system.

Screws (not supplied)

external aerial (not supplied) should be connected instead of the simple indoor aerial. Consult your dealer.

Notes on connections:

• Please refer to the instruction manuals for the components that you are connecting (TV, VCR, etc.).

• When you connect the unit to your TV and other equipment, be sure to turn off the power and disconnect all of the equipments

from the AC outlet until all the connections have been made.

GB-7

TV aerial and TV connections

You can connect the unit to a TV using Aerial or SCART leads. In addition to the aerial lead connection, connect also with scart lead. The picture and sound will be transmitted best through the scart lead. In this case, the TV need not be tuned to the video recorder. The Video channel also need not be tuned. The video recorder switch the television to video operation through the scart lead automatically. The stereo-play is possible in only case through a scart lead!

Note: When you play the DVD/CD disc, set the DVD OUT selector to SCART (RGB).
