NOTE TO CATV SYSTEM INSTALLER:
This reminder is provided to cal! the CATV (Cabie-TV) system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC, that provides
guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specified that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the
building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.
NOTE:
correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and
receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different
from that to which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for
help.
NOTE:
Changes or modifications may cause this unit to fail to
comply with Part 15 of the FCC Rules and may void the
user’s authority to operate the equipment.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with
the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15
of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a
residential installation. This equipment generates, uses
and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the Instructions,
may cause harmful interference to radio communica¬
tions. However, there is no guarantee that interference
will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment
does cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by tuning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to

blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked by
placing the video product on a bed, sofa, rug, or other simitar
surface. This video product shouid never be placed near or over a
radiator or heat register. This video product shouid not be placed
in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack unless proper
ventilation is provided or the manufacturer’s instructions have
been adhered to.
10. P ower Sources-This video product should be operated only from
the type of power source indicated on the matWng label. If you are
not sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult your
appliance dealer or local power company. For video products
intended to operate from battery power, or other sources, refer to
the operating instructions.
11. G rounding or Polarization-This video product is equipped with a
polarized alternating-current line plug (a plug having one blade
wider than the other). This plug will fit into the power outlet only

disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage
to the video product due to lightning and power-line surges.
16. Power Lines-An outside antenna system should not be located in
the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power
circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When
installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be
taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact
witti them might be fatal.
17. Overioading-Do not overload wail outlets and extension cords as
this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.
18. Object and Liquid Entry-Never push objects of any kind into this
video product through Openings as they may touch dangerous
voltage points or short-out parts that could result in a fire or
electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the video product.

1. Remote control
TTie distance between the transmitter of the remote control unit and
the IR SENSOR of the SR7000 should be less than about 5 meters. If
tile transmitter is pointed to a direction other than the IR SENSOR or if
there is an obstacle between them, remote control may not be
possible.
Remote-controllable range
2. Loading batteries
The life of the batteries used with the remote control unit is about 6
months with normal use. Also be sure to replace batteries earlier
when you notice that they are getting weak,
(1) R emove the back cover.
(2) I nsert the new batteries (AA type) with correct (+) and (-)
polarity.
(3) C lose until It clicks.

The RC700 oIr can learn most of the remote control codes from
various equipment, it learns the full word length of the code it is
receiving.
Due to the sensitivity of the receiving LED the RC70CK)SR may also
“learn" noise from fluorescent lights, etc. which can quickly fill up the
memory of the RC7000SR,
in order to maximize the memory capacity of the RC7000SR please
pay close attention to the following:
(1) Aim the transmitting remote control at a direct line of sight to
the RC7000SR remote receiver eye.
(2) Keep 2 inches between transmitting remote and the
RC7000SR receiving eye.

ENGLISH SPEAKERS SETUP
The home theater system you already have installed should function
provided that there are le^ center and right front speakers, left and
right rear/surround speakers and a subwoofer. For best results we
recommend that all front speakers be of the same type, with identical
or similar driver units. This will deliver smooth pans across the front
sound stage as the action moves from side to side.
Your center channel speaker is very important as over 80 % of the
dialog from a typical motion picture emanates from the center channel.
It should possess similar sonic characteristics to the main speakers.
Rear channel speakers need not be identical to the front channel
speakers, but they should be of high quality.
One of the benefits of both Dolby Digital (AC-3) and DTS is that
surround channels are discrete full range, while they were frequency
limited in earlier "Pro Logic’type systems.-
Bass effects are an important part of home theater. For optimal
enjoyment a subwoofer should be used as it is optimized for low
frequency reproduction. If you have full range front speakers,
however, they may be used in place of a subwoofer with proper
setting of the switches in the menu system.
SUB WOOFER
If possible, mount the surround speakers on the walls to the sides of
the viewing area, 2-3 feet above seated viewers, tiring straight across
at each other.

select "UNLOCKED".
SPKR SIZE
This menu enters the information about which type of speakers will be
used for each channel.
In turn, these settings will determine which speakers receive low
frequency information.
For the purpose of establishing proper bass reproduction, use the
LARGE settings if the speaker being used at any position is a
traditional full-range loudspeaker that is capable of reproducing
sound below 100 Hz and you are not using a subwoofer.
Use the SMALL setting for smaller, frequency-limited speaka-s ate not
able to reproduce sounds beiow 100Hz and you are using a subwoofer.
Low frequencies will be diverted from the speaker to frie subvwd©-.
Note that when “small" speakers are used it is advisable to install a
separate subwoofer, especially if you wish to appreciate the full
impact of a good home theater soundtrack.
If the Surround speakers or Center speaker will not be used, set
FRONT -L/R : Select the type of front speakers with < or > button,

Notes:
The SUBWOOFER cannot be set to None when the front speakers are
