Note:

On the above picture, Model No SB-CHSSSD is primed as the
system speaker.

The surround speakers are not supplied with model No. SB-CHGSS.

Because of unique interconnecting cables,
when a component requires service, send or
bring in the entire system.

(1) Turn off the power supply. Using a 109. 10 W resistor. connect both ends of power supply capacitors (c701. C702) in order to discharge the

voltag e.

(2) Before turning the power supply on, after completion of repair, slowly apply the primary voltage by using a power supply voltage controller to make
sure that the consumed current at 50/60 HZ in NO SIGNAL mode is mode should be shown below with respect to supply voltage 110 V/127 V/

220 V/240 V.

I PROTECTION CIRCUITRY

The protection circuitry may have operated it either of the following conditions is noticed:

'No sound is heard when the power is switched ON.
'Sound stops during a performance.

The functions oi this circuitry is to prevent circuitry damage if, for example. the positive and negative speaker connection wires are "shorted", or if
speaker systems with an impedance less than the indicated rated impedance of this unit are used.

If this occurs, iollow the procedure outlined below:
1. Switch OFF the power,
2. Determine the cause of the problem and correct it.
3. Switch ON the power once again.

Note:

When the protection circuitry functions. the unit will not operate unless the power is first switched OFF and then 0N again.

I BEFORE USE FOR (GC) AREA

Be sure to disconnect the mains cord before adjustingthe voltage
selector.

Use a minus (-) screwdriver to set the voltage selector (on the
bottom of the tuner amplifier) to the voltage setting for the area in
which the unit will be used.

(If the power supply in your area is 117 V or 120 V, set to the
127 V" position.)

Note that this unit wiII be seriously damaged it this setting is not
made correctly. (There is no voltage selector for some countries;
the correct voltage is already set.)

THIS TUNER/RECEIVER IS CAPABLEOF RECEIVING THE NEW AM STEREO BROADCASTS FROM THE AM BAND
RADIO STATIONS. HOWEVER LIKE MANY TUNERS AND RECEIVERS CURRENTLY AVAILABLE ON THE MARKET
IT WILL REPRODUCE THIS AM STEREO SIGNAL ONLY IN AM MONO, WHICH, IN EFFECT, IS OF NO LESSER
QUALITY THAN YOUR EXISTING AM MONO TUNER/RECEIVER.
