Precautions____________________________
Power plug
-When disconnecting the power cord from the power outlet, always take hold of the plug, and not the wire, and pull free. Never connect or disconnect the power plug with wet hands since you may receive an electric shock.
-Remember to disconnect the power plug from the power outlet when you do not intend to use the unit for a prolonged period of time.
Do not remove the case and bottom panel
Any inspections or adjustments inside the unit may lead to malfunctions and electric shocks. Do not touch any of the inside parts.
Do not block the ventilation holes
Do not block the ventilation holes on the top of the unit by placing records or other objects over them.
This will increase the inside temperature and may lead to failure or malfunction.
Installation precautions
Do not install the unit in any of the following locations since this may result in deterioration in performance or malfunction:
-Locations exposed to direct sunlight or near objects radiating heat such as heating appliances.
-Locations exposed to moisture or humidity.
-Locations with poor ventilation exposed to dust and dirt.
-Locations which are unstable and not perfectly flat or which are susceptible to vibration.
Do not wipe with thinners
Wipe the panels and case from time to time with a soft cloth. Using any kind of thinner, alcohol or volatile liquid will mar the surface, cause blotching on the exterior and erase the markings and should therefore be avoided.
Do not use insecticide sprays in the vicinity.
This unit dissipates the heat most effectively when installed on a flat surface. Do not stand it up or install it at an angle.
Before connecting the power plug
Before connecting the power plug to an electrical outlet, check to be sure that the unit is set to the power voltage for your area. If the voltage of the unit is improperly set, fire hazard or damage to the unit may result. If you find that the unit is not set to the proper voltage for your area follow the instructions listed below.
-Unit without voltage selectors switch.
-Unit destined for some areas are not fitted with a voltage selector switch due to laws and regulations existing in those areas. In such a case, the power supply voltage is set to the voltage used in the area where the unit is purchased.
Connections____________________________
Connection precautions
When connecting, either disconnect the power plug from the power outlet or turn off the unit’s power using the POWER switch. Check the left and right channels and connect properly (Left to L and Right to R).
Insert the plugs securely. Improper connection can lead to the generation of noise.
Turntable
Connect the turntable’s output cord L (white) plug to the L PHONO terminal and the R (red) plug to the R terminal.
If your turntable is equipped with a grounding cable, connect it to the unit’s GND terminal. But disconnect it if you notice increased hum.
-If you use the turntable alongside the unit, hum and noise pickup may sometimes. In such a case, install the turntable at a position where hum and noise are not picked up.

Speaker systems
Connect the speaker systems to the SPEAKERS terminals on the rear panel of the unit with the speaker cords. Two sets of speaker systems can be connected, one to front (Main) speakers and one to rear speakers (Surround) in order to achieve the surround sound effect.
When viewed from the front (the listening position), the speaker mounted on the left should be connected to the L terminals, and the speaker mounted on the right should be connected to the R terminals. Be sure to connect the polarities of the speaker systems and the SPEAKER terminals correctly (+ to +, - to
When connecting, do not allow the conductor of the speaker cords to be exposed from the terminals and come into contact with other terminals.
