Getting Started

This section explains how to connect audio/video components and speakers to the receiver, and how to connect the
power supply.

Before Installation

General Precautions

• Be sure your hands are dry.
• Turn the power off to all components.
• Read the manuals supplied with the components you are going to connect.

Locations

• Install the receiver in a location that is level and protected from

moisture and dust.

• The temperature around the receiver must be between –5˚C and 35˚C.
• Make sure there is good ventilation around the receiver. Poor

ventilation could cause overheating and damage the receiver.

Handling the receiver

• Do not insert any metal object into the receiver.
• Do not disassemble the receiver or remove screws, covers, or cabinet.
• Do not expose the receiver to rain or moisture.

Checking the Supplied Accessories

Check to be sure you have all of the following items, which are
supplied with the receiver.
The number in the parentheses indicates quantity of the pieces supplied.

• Remote Control (1)
• Batteries (2)
• AM Loop Antenna (1)
• FM Antenna (1)
• AC Plug Adaptor (1)

If anything is missing, contact your dealer immediately.

Putting Batteries in the Remote Control

Before using the remote control, insert the two supplied batteries first.

1 Press and slide the battery cover on the back of

the remote control.

2 Insert the batteries.

• Make sure to match the polarity: (+) to (+) and (–) to (–).

3 Replace the cover.

If the remote control cannot transmit signals or operate the receiver
correctly, replace the batteries. Use two R6(SUM-3)/AA(15F) type
dry-cell batteries.

Note:

Supplied batteries are for the initial setup. Replace for continued use.

CAUTION:

Follow these precautions to avoid leaking or cracking cells:
• Place batteries in the remote control so they match the

polarity: (+) to (+) and (–) to (–).

• Use the correct type of batteries. Batteries that look similar

may differ in voltage.

• Always replace both batteries at the same time.
• Do not expose batteries to heat or flame.
