Before using this unit

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

If the preset voltage is not correct for your area, insert a screwdriver into the groove in the switch. Slide the switch all the way to the upper (120 V) or to the lower (220-230 V), whichever is appropriate.

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 corrosion. If the remote controller does not operate smoothly, replace both the batteries at the same time.

Notes:

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

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

Do not put objects on the remote controller. Its buttons 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.
