Safety precautions
Placement
Set the unit up on an even surface away from direct sunlight,
high temperatures, high humidity, and excessive vibration. These
conditions can damage the cabinet and other components, thereby
shortening the unit’s service life.
Place it at least 15 cm away from wall surfaces to avoid distortion
and unwanted acoustical effects.
Do not place heavy items on the unit.
Voltage
Do not use high voltage power sources. This can overload the unit
and cause a fire.
Do not use a DC power source. Check the source carefully when
setting the unit up on a ship or other places where DC is used.
AC mains lead protection
Ensure the AC mains lead is connected correctly and not damaged.
Poor connection and lead damage can cause fire or electric shock.
Do not pull, bend, or place heavy items on the lead.
Grasp the plug firmly when unplugging the lead. Pulling the AC
mains lead can cause electric shock.
Do not handle the plug with wet hands. This can cause electric
shock.
Foreign matter
Do not let metal objects fall inside the unit. This can cause electric
shock or malfunction.
Do not let liquids get into the unit. This can cause electric shock or
malfunction. If this occurs, immediately disconnect the unit from the
power supply and contact your dealer.
Do not spray insecticides onto or into the unit. They contain
flammable gases which can ignite if sprayed into the unit.
Service
Do not attempt to repair this unit by yourself. If sound is interrupted,
indicators fail to light, smoke appears, or any other problem that
is not covered in these instructions occurs, disconnect the AC
mains lead and contact your dealer or an authorized service
centre. Electric shock or damage to the unit can occur if the unit is
repaired, disassembled or reconstructed by unqualified persons.
Extend operating life by disconnecting the unit from the power
source if it is not to be used for a long time.

Placement of speakers
Speakers are designed identically so that no left or right channel
orientation is necessary.
You cannot take the front net off the speakers.
Use only the supplied speakers.
The combination of the main unit and speakers provide the best
sound. Using other speakers can damage the unit and sound
quality will be negatively affected.
Note:
• Keep your speakers at least 10mm away from the system for
proper ventilation.
• These speakers do not have magnetic shielding. Do not place
them near televisions, personal computers or other devices easily
influenced by magnetism.
• You can damage your speakers and shorten their useful life if you
play sound at high levels over extended periods.
• Reduce the volume in the following cases to avoid damage.
– When playing distorted sound.
– When adjusting the sound quality.
Caution
• Use the speakers only with the recommended system.
Failure to do so can damage the amplifier and speakers,
and can cause fire. Consult a qualified service person if
damage occurs or if a sudden change in performance is
apparent.
• Do not attach these speakers to walls or ceilings.
Preparing the remote control
Use alkaline or manganese batteries.
Insert so the poles (+ and –) match those in the remote control.
Aim at the remote control signal sensor (Zpage 6), avoiding
obstacles, at a maximum range of 7 m directly in front of the unit.
Note on using the remote control
• Do not mix old and new batteries.
• Do not use different types of batteries at the same time.
• Do not take apart or short circuit the batteries.
• Do not attempt to recharge alkaline or manganese batteries.
• Do not use batteries if the covering has been peeled off.
• Do not heat or expose to flame.
• Do not leave the battery(ies) in an automobile exposed to direct
sunlight for a long period of time with doors and windows closed.
• Mishandling of batteries in the remote control can cause
electrolyte leakage, which may cause a fire.
• Remove the batteries if the remote control is not going to be used
for a long period of time. Store in a cool, dark place.
CAUTION
Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace
only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the
manufacturer. Dispose of used batteries according to the
manufacturer’s instructions.
