JVC RX-8030VBK manual Getting Started, Before Installation, Connecting the FM and AM Antennas

Getting Started

This section explains how to connect audio/video components and speakers to the receiver, and how to connect the power supply.

Before Installation

General Precautions

•Be sure your hands are dry.

•Turn the power off to all components.

•Read the manuals supplied with the components you are going to connect.

If the remote control cannot transmit signals or operate the receiver correctly, replace the batteries. Use two R6P(SUM-3)/AA(15F) type dry-cell batteries.

Notes:

•Supplied batteries are for the initial setup. Replace for continued use.

•After replacing the batteries, set the manufacturers’ codes again (see pages from 47 to 49).

Locations

•Install the receiver in a location that is level and protected from moisture.

•The temperature around the receiver must be between –5˚C and 35˚C (23˚F and 95˚F ).

•Make sure there is good ventilation around the receiver. Poor ventilation could cause overheating and damage the receiver.

Handling the receiver

•Do not insert any metal object into the receiver.

•Do not disassemble the receiver or remove screws, covers, or cabinet.

•Do not expose the receiver to rain or moisture.

CAUTION:

Follow these precautions to avoid leaking or cracking cells:

•Place batteries in the remote control so they match the polarity:

(+) to (+) and (–) to (–).

•Use the correct type of batteries. Batteries that look similar may differ in voltage.

•Always replace both batteries at the same time.

•Do not expose batteries to heat or flame.
