Note

• Before connecting the power cord, connect all of your

speakers and AV components.

• Turning on the AV receiver may cause a momentary power surge

that might interfere with other electrical equipment on the same

circuit. If this is a problem, plug the AV receiver into a different

branch circuit.

• Do not use a power cord other than the one supplied with the AV

receiver. The supplied power cord is designed exclusively for use

with the AV receiver and should not be used with any other

equipment.

•Once your AV receiver is ready for use, you’ll need to tune into a radio station and position the antenna to achieve the best possible reception.

•Keep the AM loop antenna as far away as possible from your AV receiver, TV, speaker cables, and power cords.

Tip

•If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied indoor FM antenna, try a commercially available outdoor FM antenna instead.

•If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied indoor AM loop antenna, try using it with a commercially available outdoor AM antenna.

• Never disconnect the power cord from the AV receiver while the

other end is still plugged into a wall outlet. Doing so may cause

an electric shock. Always disconnect the power cord from the

wall outlet first, and then the AV receiver.
