Polarization —As asafety feature, some units are equipped
with polarized AC power plugs which can only be inserted
one way into apower outlet. If it is difficult or impossible to
insert the AC power plug into an outlet, turn the plug over and
try again. If it still does not easily insert into the outlet, please
call aqualified service technician to service or replace the
outlet. To avoid defeating the safety feature of the polarized
plug, do not force it into apower outlet.
AC power cord
-When disconnecting the AC power cord, pull it out by the
AC power plug. Do not pull the cord itself.
-Never handle the AC power plug with wet hands, as this
could result in fire or shock.
-Power cords should be firmly secured to avoid being severely

2Outdoor antenna grounding —Be sure the antenna system
is properly grounded to provide protection against unexpected
voltage surges or static electricity build-up. Article 810 of the
National Electrical Code, ANS1/NFPA 70, provides information
on proper grounding of the mast, supporting structure, and
the lead-in wire to the antenna discharge unit, as well as the
size of the grounding unit, connection to grounding terminals,
and requirements for grounding terminals themselves.

Setting up the, units
Place the units horizontally as the illustration above.
When placing them vertically, refer to the illustration as follows.
●Do not place the stereo cassette deck on the CD player. The
top window of the CD player may be damaged.
●Make sure that the stereo cassette deck is placed on the left
side of the stereo receiver.
It may generate some noises or may prevent the stereo system
from proper functioning if the stereo cassette deck is placed on
the right side of or on the stereo receiver, or ifthe stereo receiver
is placed on the stereo cassette deck.
Connect the speakers, antennas, and all optional equipment first.
Then connect the AC cord in the end.
Before connecting the AC cord
The rated voltage of your unit shown on the rear panel of the
stereo receiver is 120VAC. Check that the rated voltage matches
your local voltage.
