Precautions
Installation place
- Choose a stable place near the devices that are to be used
in combination with this unit.
- Do not install this unit near a television or color monitor.
Keep this unit away from such devices as cassette decks
that are subject to magnetism.
Avoid the following locations for
installation.
- Locations exposed to direct sunlight
- Places subject to humidity and with less ventilation
- Places where are extremely hot or cold
- Places subject to strong vibration
- Places subject to dust
- Places subject to oil, steam, and heat (such as kitchens)
To avoid heat emission
Do not place this unit on such device as an amplifier that may
emit heat. If the unit is installed on a rack, install the unit as
distantly as possible from where the amplifier is installed so
as to avoid heat emission from the amplifier and other audio
devices.
Power off this unit when it is not used.
Depending on the condition of radio waves emitted during
television broadcasting, interference fringes may appear on
the television monitor, but that is not a malfunction. In such
a case, power off the unit. There may also be a case where
noises are heard on the radio due to radio wave interference.
Notice when handling optical digital cables
- Do not fold the cables. For storage, wind each cable to
make a coil whose diameter is approx.15 cm or larger.
- For connection, insert the cable connectors firmly into the
terminals of this unit and the other device.
- Use the cables whose each length is 3 m or less.
- When the cable connectors get dusty, wipe the dust away
with a dry soft cloth before inserting into the terminals.
Cleaning
- Usually, wipe the unit with a dry soft cloth. When the dirt
is hard to remove, dip soft cloth in detergent diluted 5 or 6
times with water, wring it well, and remove contaminants.
Then, remove the moisture with dry cloth.
- Do not use a solvent like alcohol, benzine, thinner, or pes-
ticide because such a substance can damage the exterior.
In addition, do not let this unit contact a rubber or plastic
form for a long time. That may damage the cabinet surface
of the unit.
- When using a chemical cloth for cleaning, read the caution
provided with the chemical cloth product.
- Before cleaning, unplug the power cord from the AC outlet.
Precautions in connecting with other
components
When connecting this unit to input devices such as a CD
player, an SACD player, a tuner, and a recorder, be sure to
turn off the power of this unit and all other connected devices.
Failure to observe this may generate a strong noise resulting
in speaker damage or cause a malfunction.
The pin-plug to be inserted in each input terminal of this unit
shall be pushed in firmly. If the grounding terminal is inad-
equately connected, noises including hum may be generated,
resulting in an adverse S/N ratio.
Repair and adjustment
When repairs or adjustments are needed, please ask the
dealer where you bought the unit.
