About This Manual

This manual is organized as follows:
• The manual mainly explains operations using the
buttons and controls on the unit. You can also use the
buttons on the remote control if they have the same
or similar names (or marks) as those on the unit.
If operation using the remote control is different
from that using the unit, it is then explained.
• Basic and common information that is the same for
many functions is grouped in one place, and is not
repeated in each procedure. For instance, we do not
repeat the information about turning on/off the unit,
setting the volume, changing the sound effects, and
others, which are explained in the section “Basic and
Common Operations” on pages 14 – 16.
• The following marks are used in this manual:

from damage or risk of fire/electric shock.

is not good for obtaining the best possible
performance from the unit.
Gives you information and hints you had
better know.
