Precautions
On safety
• Should any solid object or liquid fall into
the cabinet, unplug the receiver and
have it checked by qualified personnel
before operating it any further.
• To prevent fire, do not cover the
ventilation of the receiver with
newspapers, table cloths, curtains, etc.
And don’t place lighted candles on the
receiver.
• To prevent fire or shock hazards, do not
place vases on the receiver.
On power sources
• Before operating the receiver, check that
the operating voltage is identical with
your local power supply. The operating
voltage is indicated on the nameplate at
the rear of the receiver.
• The unit is not disconnected from the AC
power source (mains) as long as it is
connected to the wall outlet, even if the
unit itself has been turned off.
• If you are not going to use the receiver
for a long time, be sure to disconnect the
receiver from the wall outlet. To
disconnect the AC power cord, grasp the
plug itself; never pull the cord.
• AC power cord must be changed only at
the qualified service shop.
On placement
• Place the receiver in a location with
adequate ventilation to prevent heat
buildup and prolong the life of the
receiver.
• Do not place the receiver near heat
sources, or in a place subject to direct
sunlight, excessive dust or mechanical
shock.
• Do not place anything on top of the
cabinet that might block the ventilation
holes and cause malfunctions.
• Although the receiver heats up during
operation, this is not a malfunction. If
you continuously use this receiver at a
large volume, the cabinet temperature of
the top, side and bottom rises
accordingly. To avoid burning yourself,
do not touch the cabinet.
On operation
Before connecting other components, be
sure to turn off and unplug the receiver.
On cleaning

If you have any question or problem
concerning your receiver, please
consult your nearest Sony dealer.
