Installing the Unit Under a Cabinet

(See Fig. A)

The unit can be installed without the spacer.

1Mark the position of the 4 holes by using the supplied template. Use a drill to

make the holes (size 6.5 mm dia., 9/32 inch). (See Fig. A-a)

2When the cabinet door overhangs the shelf and obstructs the unit, you can adjust the unit/shelf height.

First set the L mark to the dot which becomes the lowest position, then you can adjust the height in 4 steps (H••L)

by turning the spacer counterclockwise. (See Fig. A-b)3Install the unit with the supplied mounting screws. (See Fig. A-c)Caution

•Since the unit is very heavy, be careful when installing the unit.

•To reduce the risk of fire, do not place any heating or cooking appliance beneath this unit.

•Install the unit so that its AC power cord can be connected directly to a wall outlet. Do not use a converter or extension cord.

•Be sure that the AC power cord has no slack when using the unit, since the cord acts as an FM wire antenna. If the AC power cord has some slack, wind it up to the cord hook until the cord has no slack.

•The unit has a built-in ferrite bar antenna for AM radio reception. Check the condition of AM reception before fixing in position.

•Install the unit as far as possible from a source of noise. (for example, refrigerator, microwave oven, fluorescent lamp, etc.)
