CAUTION!
THIS PRODUCT UTILIZES A LASER.
USE OF CONTROLS OR ADJUSTMENTS OR PERFORMANCE OF PROCEDURES OTHER THAN THOSE SPECIFIED HEREIN MAY RESULT IN HAZARDOUS RADIATION
EXPOSURE.
DO NOT OPEN COVERS AND DO NOT REPAIR
YOURSELF. REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED
PERSONNEL.
CAUTION!
DO NOT INSTALL OR PLACE THIS UNIT IN A BOOKCASE, BUILT IN CABINET OR IN ANOTHER CONFINED
SPACE. ENSURE THE UNIT IS WELL VENTILATED. ENSURE THAT CURTAINS AND ANY OTHER MATERIALS
DO NOT OBSTRUCT THE VENTILATION TO PREVENT
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK OR FIRE HAZARD DUE TO
OVERHEATING.
Set the system up on an even surface away from direct sunlight,
high temperatures, high humidity, and excessive vibration. These
conditions can damage the cabinet and other components, thereby
shortening the unit’s service life.
Place it at least 15 cm away from wall surfaces to avoid distortion
and unwanted acoustical effects.
Do not place heavy items on the unit.
Voltage
Do not use high voltage power sources. This can overload the unit
and cause a fire.
Do not use a DC power source. Check the source carefully when
setting the unit up on a ship or other place where DC is used.
AC mains lead protection
Ensure the AC mains lead is connected correctly and not damaged. Poor connection and lead damage can cause fire or electric
shock. Do not pull, bend, or place heavy items on the lead.
Grasp the plug firmly when unplugging the lead. Pulling the AC
mains lead can cause electric shock.
Do not handle the plug with wet hands. This can cause electric
shock.
Foreign matter
Do not let metal objects fall inside the unit. This can cause electric
shock or malfunction.
Do not let liquids get into the unit. This can cause electric shock or
malfunction. If this occurs, immediately disconnect the unit from the
power supply and contact your dealer.
Do not spray insecticides onto or into the unit. They contain flammable gases which can ignite if sprayed into the unit.
Service
Do not attempt to repair this unit by yourself. If sound is interrupted,
indicators fail to light, smoke appears, or any other problem that is not
covered in these instructions occurs, disconnect the AC mains lead
and contact your dealer or an authorized service center. Electric
shock or damage to the unit can occur if the unit is repaired, disassembled or reconstructed by unqualified persons.
Extend operating life by disconnecting the unit from the power
source if it is not to be used for a long time.
For your safety, please read the following text
carefully.
This appliance is supplied with a moulded three pin
mains plug for your safety and convenience.
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-ampere
Before use
and that it is approved by ASTA or BSI to BS1362.
Check for the ASTA mark m or the BSI mark o on
the body of the fuse.
If the plug contains a removable fuse cover you must
ensure that it is refitted when the fuse is replaced.
If you lose the fuse cover the plug must not be used
until a replacement cover is obtained.
A replacement fuse cover can be purchased from
your local dealer.
CAUTION!
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.
WARNING: DO NOT CONNECT EITHER WIRE TO
THE EARTH TERMINAL WHICH IS MARKED WITH
THE LETTER E, BY THE EARTH SYMBOL
COLOURED GREEN OR GREEN/YELLOW.
THIS PLUG IS NOT WATERPROOF—KEEP DRY.

How to replace the fuse
The location of the fuse differ according to the type of
AC mains plug (figures A and B). Confirm the AC
mains plug fitted and follow the instructions below.
Illustrations may differ from actual AC mains plug.
1. Open the fuse cover with a screwdriver.
Figure A
If a new plug is to be fitted please observe the wiring
code as stated below.
If in any doubt please consult a qualified electrician.
IMPORTANT
The wires in this mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
Blue: Neutral, Brown: Live.
As these colours 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 or Blue.
The wire which is coloured Brown must be connected
to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured Brown or Red.

Note
³Do not put the CD changer or CD player on the tuner amplifier. Heat
from the tuner amplifier can damage your CDs.
³Left and right front speakers are exactly the same.
Use only the supplied speakers.
The combination of the system and the speakers provides the best
sound. Using other speakers can damage the unit and sound quality
will be negatively affected.
Caution
³Use the speakers only with the recommended system.
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.
³Do not attempt to attach these speakers to walls using
methods other than those described in this manual.

Place the center speaker (a) directly above the television.
Surround speakers
Place the surround speakers (b, c) either side of the listening position, or slightly to the rear, about 1 meter higher than ear level.
Place the speakers with the Technics logo facing toward the listening
position.
However the position should be adjusted to your personal preference, because the effect varies to some degree depending upon the
type of music and the music source.
Note
If you are unable to position the surround speakers as recommended, you can put them near the front speakers and still achieve a surround-like effect (➡ page 27, “VIRTUAL REAR SURROUND”).
[D] Attaching to a wall
Set speaker onto screws and slide through bracket to lock into position.
Note
The wall or pillar on which the speaker systems are to be attached
should be capable of supporting 5 kg.
If irregular coloring occurs on your television
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.
