Getting Started

Before Installation

General Precautions

•DO NOT insert any metal object into the center unit.

•DO NOT disassemble the center unit or remove screws, covers, or cabinet.

•DO NOT expose the center unit to rain or moisture.

Locations

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

•The temperature around the center unit must be between 5˚C and 35˚C (41˚F and 95˚F).

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

Handling the center unit

•DO NOT touch the power cord with wet hands.

•DO NOT pull on the power cord to unplug the cord. When unplugging the cord, always grasp the plug so as not to damage the cord.

•Keep the power cord away from the connecting cords and the antenna. The power cord may cause noise or screen interference. It is recommended to use a coaxial cable for antenna connection, since it is well-shielded against interference.

•When a power failure occurs, or when you unplug the power cord, the preset settings such as preset FM/AM channels and sound adjustments may be erased in a few days.

Check to be sure you have all of the following supplied accessories. The number in the parentheses indicates the quantity of the pieces supplied.

•Remote Control (1)

•Batteries (2)

•AM Loop Antenna (1)

•FM Antenna (1)

•Video cord (1)

If anything is missing, contact your dealer immediately.

Putting Batteries in the Remote Control

Before using the remote control, put two supplied batteries first.

•When using the remote control, aim the remote control directly at the remote sensor on the center unit.

1.On the back of the remote control, remove the battery cover.

2.Insert batteries. Make sure to match the polarity:

(+) to (+) and (–) to (–).

3. Replace the cover.

If the range or effectiveness of the remote control decreases, replace the batteries. Use two UM-4“AAA”/IEC “R03” type dry-cell batteries.

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.
