IMPORTANT
The lightning flash with arrowhead, within an equi-
Jateral triangle, is intended to alert the user of the
presence of uninsulated ‘dangerous voltage’ within
the praduct’s enclosure that may be of sufficient
magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to
persons.

OUTDOOR ANTENNA GROUNDING — If an out-
side antenna is connected to the antenna termi-
nal, be sure the antenna system is grounded so as
to provide some protection against voltage surges
and built up static charges
In the U.S.A. section 810 of the National Elec-
trical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984, pravides
information with respect to proper grounding of
the mast and supporting structure, grounding of
the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size
of grounding conductors, location of antenna-
discharge unit, connection to grounding elec-
trodes, and requirements for the grounding elec-
trode. See Fig. A
a) Use No. 10 AWG (5.3 mm?) cop-
per, No. 8 AWG (84 mm?) alu-
minum, No. 17 AWG (1.0 mm?)
copperclad steel, bronze wire, or
larger as ground wire
b) Secure antenna lead-in and
ground wires to house with
stand-off insulators spaced from
4 feet (1.22 meters) to 6 feet
(1.83 meters) apart
c) Mount antenna discharge unit as
closely as possible to where lead-
in enters house
STAND. OFF d) Use jumper wire not smaller than
INSUEATORS 2 No6 AWG (13.3 mm?) copper,
or the equivalent, when a sepa-
rate antenna- grounding electrode
is used.

SWITCHES
TWO VOLTAGE SELECTOR SWITCHES
Only multi-voltage models are provided with these switches. U.S.,
Canadian, European, U.K., and Australian models are not provided
with these switches.
The line voltage selector switches are on the rear panel. Before your
model is shipped from the factory, these switches are set to the power
requirements of the destination. Check that they are set properly be-
fore plugging the power cord into the household wall socket. If the volt-
age is not properly set or if you move to an area where the voltage
requirements differ, adjust the selector switches as follows.

THE POSITION OF THESE
CHANNEL STEP/FM DE-EMPHASIS SWITCH
The unit has been factory preset to the channel allocation and de-
emphasis value for the area in which it is to be sold. If these values are
set incorrectly, the frequency display may stop at the wrong frequen-
cy, or sound may be distorted, resulting in an inability to reproduce
reception signals at their proper sound quality. For this reason, be sure
to confirm that the values are set correctly before first using the unit.
[100kHz/10kHz/75,s] position:
Set to this position for areas with an FM reception step of 100kHz,AM
10kHz, and de-emphasis 75s.
{SOkH2/9kHz/50xns] position:
1, for areas with an FM reception step of 50kHz, AM
dhasis 50ps.

VCR NOISE FILTER
When playing back a monaural VCR, there is a tendency for audible high-
frequency hiss to be produced.
When playing back video tapes, if the audio channels contain noticeable
high-frequency tape hiss, pressing this switch will improve the sound.
SIMULATED STEREO
This function transforms monaural signals into simulated stereo sound.
Use it when you wish to experience a sense of stereo presence when
listening to AM broadcasts, or VCR and other monaural signal sources.
NOTE:
The simulated stereo function can also be used with stereo sound
sources, but it will result in an effect somewhat different from the normal
stereo sound.

(1) FM/AM ANTENNA terminals
Use these antenna terminals for reception of normal FM and AM
broadcasts.
(2) STATION PRESET/STATION NAME switch
Determines the number of presets possible using the STATION CALL
switches.
10: You can store a name for each station at this position, but each
STATION CALL switch can store one station (10 station total).
30: Each STATION CALL switch can store three stations (30
stations total). (Press once, twice, or three times to select.)
(3) GND terminal
Connect the turntable ground lead to this terminal.
(4) SURROUND BALANCE control
Use to adjust the surround effect from the surround speakers. Normally
leave in the center position. When inputting a monaural signal, adjust
so that the surround output is minimum.
(5) CENTER OUT jack
This is the Dolby surround center channel signal output jack.It can also
be used as a 3D system MONO output.
(6) REAR SPEAKERS terminals
Connect the surround speakers to these terminals.
NOTE:
Do not allow any of the cord’s conductors to protrude from the termi-
nals or touch any other conductors. Malfunctioning or breakdowns may
occur when conductors come into contact with each other.
Use surround speakers of impedance 8Q — 16.
(7) REMOTE CONTROL IN/OUT jacks
IN: Connect this jack to other Pioneer components (main unit or remote
control unit) when using those components to control this unit.
OUT: Connect this jack to other Pioneer components when using the
remote control of this units to control the other components.
NOTE:
The receiver's remote sensor does not function when a plug is inserted
in the IN jack. To operate, point the remote control unit at the remote
sensor on the component to which the receiver's IN jack is connected.

[TO MONITOR TV jacks]
Connect to monitor TV or to TV sets with video input terminals.
[TO RF MODULATOR jack]
Use to connect a normal TV set. When performing connections, the
RF MODULATOR JA-RF5 (sold separately) is required. By connecting
an RF modulator, video signals can be converted to VHF signals (U.S.
channel 3 or 4), thus allowing this unit to be used to view the selected
source on a normal television set.
NOTE:
A “normal TV set as noted above ts one tor which RF connections
alone are possible.

NOTE:
Do not allow any of the cord’s conductors to protrude from the termi-

occur when conductors come into contacts with each other.
Use speakers of impedance 42 — 160. Also set the IMPEDANCE
SELECTOR switch to match the impedance of your speakers.
AC OUTLETS
(SWITCHED TOTAL 100W MAX)
Power supplied through these outlets is turned on and off by the
receiver's POWER switch. Total electrical power consumption of con-
nected equippment should not exceed 100W.
(UNSWITCHED 200 W (U.S. and Canadian model), 100 W (Multi-
voltage model) MAX)
Power flows continually to this outlet, regardless of whether the receiver
is switched ON or OFF. Electrical power consumption of the connect-
ed equipment should not exceed 200 W (U.S. and Canadian model),
100 W (Multi-voltage model).
The equipment should be disconnected by removing the power plug
from the wall socket when not in regular use, e.g. when on vacation.
NOTE:
Do not connect appliances with high power consumption such as heat-
ers, irons, or television sets to the AC OUTLETS in order to avoid over-
heating or fire risk.
This can cause the receiver to malfunction.

G0) FM MODE AUTO/MONDO selector switch
Use to select the auto stereo mode or monaural mode when listenig
to FM broadcasts. The monaural mode has been selected when the FM
MONO indicator in the display section is lit.
Auto stereo mode:
Normally, leave in this mode for reception. When a stereo FM broad-
cast is received, it will be automatically reproduced in stereo.
Monaural mode:
When receiving distant stations or stations with weak broadcast sig-
nals, the input signal may be weak, thus resulting in increased noise
during FM stereo broadcasts. In this event, setting the receiver to the
monaural mode will reduce the noise. In this case, however, FM ste-
reo broadcasts will be reproduced in monaural sound.
NOTE:
This switch has no effect on reception of AM broadcasts.

changed using the MASTER VOLUME control, while still maintaining
the sound volume differential.
