Setting the AM tuning step frequency (Worldwide models only)

Worldwide models are equipped with a switch that controls the AM band tuning steps. Please set this switch to match the AM band tun- ing step frequency in your area.

U.S.A. and Canada : 10 kHz

Other areas : 9 kHz

Setting the Voltage selector (Worldwide models only)

Worldwide models are equipped with a voltage selector to conform with local power supplies. Be sure to set this switch to match the voltage of the power supply in your area before plugging in the unit.

1.Determine the proper voltage for your area: 220-230 V or 120 V.

2.If the preset voltage is not correct for your area, insert a screw- driver into the groove in the switch. Slide the switch all the way to the right (120 V) or to the left (220-230 V), whichever is ap- propriate.

Installing the remote controller batteries

1.Remove the battery compartment cover by pressing the tab and lifting up the cover.

2.Insert two AA (R6- or UM-3)-size batteries into the battery compartment. Carefully follow the polarity diagram (positive

(+) and negative (–) symbols) inside the battery compartment.

3.After batteries are installed and seated correctly, replace the compartment cover.

Notes

Do not mix new batteries with old batteries or different kinds of batteries.

To avoid corrosion, remove the batteries if the remote controller is not to be used for a long time.

Remove dead batteries immediately to avoid damage from cor- rosion. If the remote controller doesn’t operate smoothly, re- place both the batteries at the same time.

The life of the batteries supplied is about six months but this will vary depending on usage.

Using the remote controller

Point the remote controller toward the remote control sensor.

The STANDBY indicator lights up when the unit receives a signal from the remote controller.

Notes

Place the unit away from strong light such as direct sunlight or inverted fluorescent light which can prevent proper operation of the remote con- troller.

Using another remote controller of the same type in the same room or using the unit near equipment which uses infrared rays may cause op- erational interference.

Do not put any object such as a book on the remote controller. The but tons of the remote controller may be pressed by mistake and drain the batteries.

Make sure the audio rack doors do not have colored glass. Placing the unit behind such doors may prevent proper remote controller operation.

If there is any obstacle between the remote controller and the remote control sensor, the remote controller will not operate.
