CAUTION: READ THIS BEFORE OPERATING YOUR UNIT.  
1. To assure the finest performance, please read this manual  
This unit is not disconnected from the AC power source as  
long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if this unit  
itself is turned off. This state is called the standby mode.  
In this state, this unit is designed to consume a very small  
quantity of power.  
carefully. Keep it in a safe place for future reference.  
2. Install this unit in a cool, dry, clean place – away from  
windows, heat sources, sources of excessive vibration,  
dust, moisture and cold. Avoid sources of humming  
(transformers, motors). To prevent fire or electrical shock,  
do not expose the unit to rain or water.  
For U.K. customers  
3. Never open the cabinet. If something drops into the set,  
If the socket outlets in the home are not suitable for the plug  
supplied with this appliance, it should be cut off and an  
appropriate 3 pin plug fitted. For details, refer to the  
instructions described below.  
contact your dealer.  
4. Do not use force on switches, controls or connection wires.  
When moving the unit, first disconnect the power plug and  
the wires connected to other equipment. Never pull the  
wires themselves.  
Note: The plug severed from the mains lead must be  
destroyed, as a plug with bared flexible cord is hazardous if  
engaged in a live socket outlet.  
5. The openings on the cabinet assure proper ventilation of  
the unit. If these openings are obstructed, the temperature  
inside the cabinet will rise rapidly. Therefore, avoid placing  
objects against these openings, and install the unit in well-  
ventilated condition. Be sure to allow a space of at least 10  
cm behind, 10 cm on the both sides and 20 cm above the  
top panel of the unit. Otherwise it may not only damage the  
unit, but also cause fire.  
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR U.K. MODEL  
IMPORTANT:  
THE WIRES IN MAINS LEAD ARE COLOURED IN  
ACCORDANCE WITH THE FOLLOWING CODE:  
Blue: NEUTRAL

6. Always set the VOLUME control to “– ” before starting  
the audio source play: increase the volume gradually to an  
appropriate level after the play has been started.  
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this  
apparatus may not correspond with the coloured markings  
identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:  
The wire which is coloured BLUE must be connected to the  
terminal which is marked with the letter N or coloured  
BLACK. The wire which is coloured BROWN must be  
connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L  
or coloured RED. Making sure that neither core is  
connected to the earth terminal of the three pin plug.  
7. Do not attempt to clean the unit with chemical solvents;  
this might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth.

CONNECTING SPEAKERS  
Connect the SPEAKERS terminals to your speakers with wire  
of the proper gauge, cut as short as possible. If the  
connections are faulty, no sound will be heard from the  
speakers. Make sure that the polarity of the speaker wires is  
correct, that is, + and – markings are observed. If these wires  
are reversed, the sound will be unnatural and lack bass. Do  
not let the bare speaker wires touch each other or the  
metal parts of this unit as this could damage this unit  
and/or speakers.  
One or two speaker systems can be connected to this unit.  
If you connect only one speaker system, connect it to either  
the SPEAKERS A or B terminals.  
Use speakers with the specified impedance shown on the  
rear of this unit.  
<China and General models only>  
Banana Plug connections are also possible. Simply insert  
the Banana Plug connector into the corresponding terminal.  
How to Connect:  
Red: positive (+)
