WARNING

BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE UNIT FOR THE FIRST TIME, READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY.

AC outlet voltages vary from country to country. Make sure that the voltage in your area meets the voltage requirements printed on the HT-R420Õs rear panel (e.g., AC 230 V, 50 Hz or AC 120 V, 60 Hz).

The Worldwide model has a voltage selector for compatibility with power systems around the world. Before you plug in this model, make sure that the voltage selector is set to the correct voltage for your area.

Setting the [STANDBY/ON] switch to STANDBY does not fully shutdown the HT-R420. If you do not intend to use the HT-R420 for an extended period, remove the power cord from the AC outlet.
