following precautions:
• Never use new and old batteries together.
• Insert the plus and minus sides of the
batteries properly according to the marks
in the battery case.
• Batteries with the same shape may have
different voltages. Do not use different
batteries together.

environmental public instruction’s rules
that apply in your country or area.

Installing the receiver
• When installing this unit, make sure to put
it on a level and stable surface.
Don’t install it on the following places:
– on a color TV (the screen may distort)

gives off a magnetic field). This may interfere
with the sound.
– in direct sunlight

Ventilation
When installing this unit, make sure to leave
space around the unit for ventilation to improve
heat dispersal (at least 60 cm (24 in.) at the
top). If not enough space is provided between
the unit and walls or other equipment, heat will
build up inside, interfering with performance
and/or causing malfunctions.
