Notes on batteries
•Change all
of
the batteries
if
the operation range
of
the remote control decreases.
•Use AAA, R03, UM-4 batteries for the remote control.
•Make sure that the polarities are correct. See the illustration inside the battery compartment
of
each remote control.
•Remove the batteries
if
the remote control
is
not used for an extended period
of
time.
•Do not use old batteries together with new ones.
•Do not use different types
of
batteries (such as alkaline and manganese batteries) together. Read the packaging carefully as these
different types
of
batteries may have the same shape and color.
•
We
strongly recommend using alkaline batteries.
•
If
the batteries have leaked, dispose
of
them immediately. Avoid touching the leaked material or letting it come into contact with
clothing, etc. Clean the battery compartment thoroughly before installing new batteries.
•Do not
throwaway
batteries with general house waste; dispose
of
them correctly in accordance with your local regulations.
1Open the battery compartment cover.
2Insert the supplied batteries
in
each remote
control according to the polarity markings (+

CONNECTIONS
CAUTION
•Do not connect this unit
or
other components to the main power until all connections between components are complete.
•Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other or do not let them touch any metal part
of
this unit. This could damage this unit and!
or the speakers.
•All connections must be correct: L(left) to L, R(right) to
R,
"+" to "+" and
"-"
to
"-".
If
the connections are faulty, no sound will be
heard from the speakers, and
if
the polarity
of
the speaker connections is incorrect, the sound will be unnatural and lack bass. Also,
refer to the owner's manual for each
of

CAUTION
•Do not connect this unit
or
other components to the main power until all connections between components are complete.
•Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other or do not let them touch any metal part
of
this unit. This could damage this unit and!
or the speakers.
•All connections must be correct: L(left) to L, R(right) to
R,
"+" to "+" and
"-"
to
"-".
If
the connections are faulty, no sound will be
heard from the speakers, and
if
the polarity
of
the speaker connections is incorrect, the sound will be unnatural and lack bass. Also,
refer to the owner's manual for each
