1. Warranty Claim
You can find the serial number on the rear panel. In case of warranty
claim, please report this number.

2. Recording Copyright
Recording of copyrighted material for other than personal use is illegal
without permission of the copyright holder.

3. AC Fuse
The fuse is located inside the chassis and is not user-serviceable. If
power does not come on, contact your Onkyo authorized service
station.

4. Care
From time to time you should wipe off the front and rear panels and the
cabinet with a soft cloth. For heavier dirt, dampen a soft cloth in a weak
solution of mild detergent and water, wring it out dry, and wipe away
the dirt. Following this, dry immediately with a clean cloth. Do not use
rough material, thinners, alcohol or other chemical solvents or cloths
since these may damage the finish or remove the panel lettering.

5. Power
WARNING
BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE UNIT FOR THE FIRST TIME,
READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY.
• The voltage of the available power supply differs according to

country or region. Be sure that the power supply voltage of the area
where this unit will be used meets the required voltage (e.g.,
AC230V 50Hz or AC120V 60Hz) written on the rear panel.

• Voltage Selector (Rear Panel)

Worldwide models are equipped with a voltage selector to conform
with local power supplies. Be sure to set this switch to match the
power supply in your area before plugging in the unit (see page 5).
Models without a voltage selector can only be used in areas where
the power supply voltage is the same as that of the unit.
