FOR YOUR SAFETY
FOR YOUR SAFETY Units shipped to the U.S.A. and Canada are designed for operation on 120 V AC only. Safety precaution with use of a polarized AC plug. However, some products may be supplied with a nonpolarized plug.
CAUTION: To prevent electric shock, match wide blade of plug to wide slot, fully insert. ATTENTION : Pour eviter les choc electriques, introduire la lame la plug large de la borne correspondante de la prise et poussre jusqu'au fond.
Units shipped to countries other than the above countries are equipped with an AC voltage selector switch on the rear panel. Refer to the following paragraph for the proper setting of this switch. AC VOLTAGE SELECTION This unit operates on 110-220 V AC. The AC voltage selector switches on the rear panel are set to the voltage that prevails in the area to which the unit is shipped. Before connecting the power cord to your AC outlet, make sure that the setting position of these switches match your line voltage. If not, they must be set to your voltage in accordance with the following direction.
FOR AUSTRALIA AND EUROPE ..220 VI230 VI240 V FOR YOUR SAFETY Units shipped to Australia are designed for operation on 240 V AC only. . To ensure safe operation, the three-pin plug supplied must be inserted only into a standard threepin power point which is effectively earthed through the normal household wiring. Extension cords used with the equipment must be three-core and be correctly wired to provide connection to earth. Improper extension cords are a major cause of fatalities. The fact that the equipment operates satisfactorily does not imply that the power point is earthed and that the installation is completely safe. For your safety, if in any doubt about the effective earthing of the power point, consult a qualified electrician. PAN-EUROPEAN UNIFIED VOLTAGE All units are suitable for use on supplies 220-240 V AC.

System Connections • Do not connect the receiver to the wall AC outlet when plugging and unplugging connection cords. • Be sure to connect the white plugs to the L (left) and the red plugs to the R (right) jacks when making connections. • Change the position of the FM indoor antenna until you get the best reception of your favorite FM stations. • A 75 Q outdoor FM antenna may be used to further improve the reception. Disconnect the indoor antenna before replacing it with the outdoor one. • Place the AM loop antenna as far as possible from the receiver, TV set, speaker cords and the AC input cord and set it to a direction for the best reception. • If the reception is poor with the AM loop antenna, an AM outdoor antenna can be used with the AM loop antenna. • Make connections firmly and correctly. If not, it can cause loss of sound, noise or damage to the receiver. • If the electricity fails or the AC input cord is left unplugged for about 2 weeks, the memorized contents will be all cleared. So you should memorize them again. CONNECTING ANTENNAS --------.

The Supplement about the titled "When CD, DVD, LDP or AUX/TV is selected as input source" on page 11
When listening to a LD in the normal stereo mode and the other surround modes except for the Dolby DIGITAL (AC-3). the Dolby Pro Logic and the Dolby 3 Stereo modes, there can be noise or deteriorated sound because of a wide variety of the signal encoding formats. In this case, we recommend you to change to "OPTICAL", "COAXIAL" or "ANALOG" until sound is better. "Lorsque vous ecoutez une source sur I' entree LD en mode stereo normal ou dans un quelquonque mode surround (excepte Dolby Digital AC-3, Dolby Pro-Logic et Dobly 3 stereo), la qualite de son peut etre mauvaise, "chargee" de bruit de fond et distordue. Ce phenomene est dfi au codage du signal. Dans ce cas, nous vous conseillons de selectionner Ie mode Ie moins bruyant parmi OPTICAL, COAXIAL ou ANALOG." (Seite 10) · Wenn Sie eine LaseDisc nicht in Dobly Digital (AC-3), Dolby Surround Prologic oder Dolby 3-Stereo wiedergeben, sondem stattdessen STEREO-oder elne der ubrigen Surround-Betriebsarten wahlen, kann es aufgrund der komplexen Codierungen zu Nebengerauschen oder Verzerrungen kommen. Versuchen Sie in diesem Falle, die Signaleingange zu wechseln-z.B. "OPTICAL", "COAXIAL" oder "ANALOG". Dadurch konnen die geschilderten Effekte meist beseitigt werden. Quando ascoltate un LD (laserdisc) nel modo stereo nomale 0 in altri modi surround con l' eccezione del Dolby Digital (AC-3), Dolby Pro Logic e Dolby 3 stereo puo apparire del rumore 0 della distorsione a causa della grande varieta dei formati di codifica del segnale. In questo caso vi raccomandiamo di cambiare in "OPTICAL". "COAXIAL" 0 "ANALOG" finche non ottenete un miglioramento del suono. 5807 -04001-001-0

Now,you are able to enjoy real movies in your home. DOLBY PRO LOGIC: This receiver incorporates the Dolby Pro Logic Surround Decoder which has the same functions for playback as movie theaters and gives a theater - like experience in your home, naturally reproducing the audio sound field. Use with Dolby Pro Logic program sources bearing the "[][]IDOLBY SURROUNDI " trademark such as video cassette tapes or laser discs. DOLBY 3 STEREO: Combining the rear speaker signal with that of the front speakers allows you to enjoy a regenerated sound field which has comparatively more presence and a more expansive feeling from the 3 front channels (front L,front R and center speakers) than that of ordinary stereo regeneration. Use with Dolby program sources bearing the" [][]IDDLBYSURRDUNDJ " trademark. THEATER: This mode provides the effect of being in a, movie theater when watching a movie sources that have a stereo sound track. HALL : This mode provides the ambience of a concert hall for classical music sources such as orchestral, chamber music or an instrumental solo. STADIUM: This mode provides the expansive sound field. For music sources like a rock concert, you will feel as if you were actually at the live concert. For sports programs such as a baseball game, you can enjoy a powerful sound, thus obtaining the true stadium effect. CHURCH: This mode provides the ambience of a church for baroque, string orchestral and choral group music.
Delay time The sound heard in a place such as a concert hall or a movie theater consists of the direct sound that reaches our ears directly from the sound source and the reflected sound that is indirectly reflected off from walls, floor and ceilling. The reflected sound reaches our ears slightly later than the direct sound. The delay time is the time difference between the direct sound and the reflected sound. The optimum delay time will be different according to the room size and the acoustic properties. It is recommended that you try different times to obtain the best effect. •It is adjustable in the Dolby DIGITAL(AC-3) and the Dolby Pro Logic modes only. •Manufactured under licence from Dolby Laboratories Licensing Corporation.

Speaker placement
TV set
To obtain the best surround sound effect in your home, place the speakers as follows; • Front speakers: Place each front speaker about 1m (40") from the TV set. • Center speaker: Place the center speaker either above or below the TV set to assure good visualization of center channel program. • Rear speakers: Place the rear speakers approximately 1m above the ear level of a seated listener on the direct left and right of them or slightly behind. • Subwoofer : Reproduces powerful deep bass sounds. Place a powered subwoofer anywhere in the front as desired. • The ideal surround system needs all the speakers listed above. However, if you don't have a center speaker, a subwoofer or rear speakers, select the best possible surround mode with the available speakers. Note: To avoid interference with the TV picture, use only magnetically shielded center and front speakers.
