protection technology must be authorized by Macrovision
Corporation, and is intended for home and other limited
viewing uses only, unless otherwise authorized by Macrovision
Corporation. Reverse engineering or disassembly is prohibited.
PLACING THE RECEIVER
Do not place objects directly on top of the receiver as it could
prevent proper heat dispersal.
When installing in a rack or shelf, be sure to leave more than 8
inches of space above and behind the receiver.
MAKING CABLE CONNECTIONS
Be careful not to bend cables over the top of the receiver. If
cables are placed on top of the receiver, the magnetic field
prodcued by the receiver’s transformers can cause the speakers
to produce a humming noise.
USING DISCS
When using discs, you must always take the following
precautions:
• Do not touch the playback side of the disc.
• Do not attach paper or tape to discs.
• Do not store discs in a place subject to direct sunlight or
near heat sources.
• Do not store discs in places subject to moisture and dust
such as a bathroom or near a humidifier.
• Store discs vertically in a case. Stacking or placing objects
on discs outside of their case may cause warping.
Cleaning Discs
Fingerprints and dust on the disc cause picture and sound
deterioration. Wipe the disc from the center outward with a
soft cloth. Always keep the disc clean.
If you cannot wipe off the dust with a soft cloth, wipe the disc
lightly with a slightly moistened soft cloth and finish with a dry
cloth.
Do not use any type of solvents such as thinner, benzene,
commercially available cleaners or anti-static spray for vinyl
LPs. They might damage the disc.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Careful attention is devoted to quality standards in the
manufacture of your system, and safety is a major factor in its
design. However, safety is also your responsibility.
This section lists important information that will help you
properly use and enjoy your system. Read all the included
safety and operating instructions before using your system.
Follow them closely, and retain them for future reference.

4
14. Ventilation — Slots and openings in the cabinet provide
ventilation, ensure reliable operation, and protect from
overheating. Do not block or cover these openings, and do
not place the product on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar
surface. Do not place the product in a built-in installation
such as a bookcase or rack unless it provides proper
ventilation as specified by the manufacturer.
15. Power Sources — Operate this product using only the
power source indicated on its marking label. If you are not
sure of your home's power type, consult your product
dealer or local power company.
16. Polarization — This product is equipped with a polarized
AC line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the
other). This plug will fit in the power outlet only one way.
This is a safety feature. If you cannot insert the plug fully
into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug still
doesn't fit, contact your electrician to replace your
obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the
polarized plug. If you need an extension, use a polarized
cord.
17. Power-Cord Protection — Route power-supply cords so
they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items
placed on or against them, paying particular attention to
cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point
where they exit from the product.
18. Lightning — For added protection for this product during
a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and
unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall
outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This
will prevent damage to the product due to lightning and
power-line surges.
19. Overloading — Do not overload wall outlets, extension
cords, or integral convenience receptacles, as this can
result in a risk of fire or electric shock.
20. Objects and Liquids — Never push objects of any kind
into this 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 product.
21. Servicing — Do not attempt to service this product
yourself, as opening or removing covers may expose you
to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing
to qualified service personnel.
22. Damage Requiring Service — Unplug this product from
the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service
personnel under the following conditions:
• When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged.
• If liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the
product.
• If the product has been exposed to rain or water.
• If the product does not operate normally by following
the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls

improper adjustment of other controls may result in
damage and will often require extensive work by a qual-
ified technician to restore the product to normal opera-
tion.
• If the product has been dropped or damaged in any way.
• When the product exhibits a distinct change in
performance.
23. Replacement Parts — When replacement parts are
required, be sure the service technician uses replacement
parts specified by the manufacturer or having the same
characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized
substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, or other
hazards.
24. Safety Check — Upon completion of service or repairs to
this product, ask the service technician to perform safety
checks to determine that the product is in proper
operating condition.
25. Wall or Ceiling Mount — The product should be mounted

requirements for the grounding electrode.
Note to CATV System Installer
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s
attention to Section 820-40 of the NEC which provides
guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies
that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding
system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as
practical.
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 with them might be fatal.

CONNECTING ANTENNAS
When connecting equipment, always make sure the power is
switched off and the power cord is disconnected from the wall
outlet.
FM Indoor Antenna
In an area with strong FM signals, the T-type FM antenna
(supplied) is sufficient.
1. Use a flat or Phillips screwdriver to loosen the screws on
the supplied transformer.
2. Place the metal connectors on the end of theT-type
antenna’s base on the transformer’s metal contacts
(underneath the screw heads) then tighten the screws.
3. Plug the transformer into ANTENNA FM 75 ..
4. Extend the T-antenna’s other two wires and attach them to
a wall or window frame for the best possible reception.

FM Outdoor Antenna
In an area where FM signals are weak, you must use a 75-ohm
unbalanced-type outdoor FM antenna (not supplied).
Generally, a 3-element antenna will be sufficient. If you live in
an area where the FM signals are particularly weak, it may be
necessary to use one with 5 or more elements.
If you have a FM antenna that uses coaxial cable, connect it
directly to ANTENNA FM 75 ..
If you have a twin-lead FM antenna, connect it to the supplied
transformer, then plug the transformer into ANTENNA FM 75 .
(see Steps 1–3 of “FM Indoor Antenna”).
AM Indoor Loop Antenna
The supplied high-performance AM loop antenna is sufficient
for good reception in most areas.

9
Connect the loop antenna’s wires to AM and GND. Place the
antenna in a location (for example, on a shelf or window
frame) that gives the best reception.
Keep the antenna as far away as possible from the entire
system, speaker cords and the power cord to prevent
unwanted noise.
AM Outdoor Antenna
If the supplied AM loop antenna does not deliver sufficient
reception, use an outdoor AM antenna (not supplied).
Use an insulated wire more than 15 feet (5 m) long. Strip one
end, and connect that end to AM.
String the antenna wire outdoors or indoors near a window.
For better reception, connect the GND terminal to a reliable
ground.
