1.Read Instructions Ð All the safety and operating instructions
should be read before the appliance is operated.
2.Retain Instructions Ð The safety and operating instructions
should be retained for future reference.
3.Heed Warnings Ð All warnings on the appliance and in the op-
erating instructions should be adhered to.
4.Follow Instructions Ð All operating and use instructions should
be followed.
5.Water and Moisture Ð The appliance should not be used near
water Ð for example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink,
laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, and
the like.
6.Carts and Stands Ð The appliance
should be used only with a cart or stand
that is recommended by the manufac-
turer.
6A. An appliance and cart combination
should be moved with care. Quick
stops, excessive force, and uneven sur-
faces may cause the appliance and cart
combination to overturn.
7.Wall or Ceiling Mounting Ð The appliance should be mounted
to a wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer.
8.Ventilation Ð The appliance should be situated so that its loca-
tion or position does not interfere with its proper ventilation. For
example, the appliance should not be situated on a bed, sofa,
rug, or similar surface that may block the ventilation openings;
or if placed in a built-in installation, such as a bookcase or cabi-
net that may impede the flow of air through the ventilation open-
ings, there should be free space of at least 20 cm (8 in.) and an
opening behind the appliance.
9.Heat Ð The appliance should be situated away from heat sources
such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appliances (in-
cluding amplifiers) that produce heat.
10.Power Sources Ð The appliance should be connected to a power
supply only of the type described in the operating instructions or
as marked on the appliance.
11.Polarization Ð If the appliance is provided with a polarized
plug having one blade wider than the other, please read the
following information:
The polarization of the plug is a safety feature. The polarized
plug will only fit the outlet one way. If the plug does not fit
fully into the outlet, try reversing it. If there is still trouble, the
user should seek the services of a qualified electrician. Under
no circumstances should the user attempt to defeat the
polarization of the plug.
12.Power-Cord Protection Ð Power-supply cords should be
routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by
items placed upon or against them, especially near plugs, conve-
nience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the appli-
ance.
13.Cleaning Ð The appliance should be cleaned only as recom-
mended by the manufacturer.14.Power Lines Ð An outdoor antenna should be located away
from power lines.
15.Nonuse Periods Ð The power cord of the appliance should be
unplugged from the outlet when left unused for a long period of
time.
16.Object and Liquid Entry Ð Care should be taken so that objects
do not fall and liquids are not spilled into the enclosure through
openings.
17.Damage Requiring Service Ð The appliance should be
serviced by qualified service personnel when:
A. The power-supply cord or the plug has been damaged; or
B. Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled into the
appliance; or
C. The appliance has been exposed to rain; or
D. The appliance does not appear to operate normally or
exhibits a marked change in performance; or
E. The appliance has been dropped, or the enclosure damaged.
18.Servicing Ð The user should not attempt to service the appliance
beyond that described in the operating instructions. All other
servicing should be referred to qualified service personnel.
19.Outdoor Antenna Grounding Ð If an outside antenna is con-
nected to the receiver, be sure the antenna system is grounded so
as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built up
static charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information with regard to proper
grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of
the lead-in wire to an antenna-discharge unit, size of grounding
conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to
grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding elec-
trode. See Figure 1.

Important Safeguards
WARNING:
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK,
DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR
MOISTURE.
CAUTION:
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT
REMOVE COVER (OR BACK). NO USER-SERVICEABLE
PARTS INSIDE. REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED
SERVICE PERSONNEL.
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral
triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated
dangerous voltage within the products enclosure that may be of
sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to
alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance
(servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance.

1. Warranty Claim
You can find the serial number on the rear panel of this unit. In case
of warranty claim, please report this number.
2. Recording Copyright
Recording of copyrighted material for other than personal use is il-
legal 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 sta-
tion.
4. Care
From time to time you should wipe 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 off the dirt. Following this, dry immediately with a clean cloth.
Do not use rough material, thinners, alcohol or other chemical sol-
vents or cloths since these could 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 coun-
try or region. Be sure that the power supply voltage of the area
where this unit will be used meets the required voltage (e.g., AC 230
V, 50 Hz or AC 120 V, 60 Hz) written on the rear panel.
Worldwide models are equipped with a voltage selector to conform
to local power supplies. Be sure to set this switch to match the volt-
age of the power supply in your area before plugging in the unit.
Note to CATV system installer:
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installerÕs atten-
tion to Article 820-40 of the NEC, ANSI/NFPA 70, which provides
guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the
cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the
building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.
