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 units 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.

Placement of speakers

Voltage
Do not use high voltage power sources. This can overload the unit and cause a re. Do not use a DC power source. Check the source carefully when setting the unit up on a ship or other place where DC is used. Speakers are designed identically so that no left or right channel orientation is necessary. 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.

To household mains socket
Connect the AC mains lead. Connect the speaker cables.
The included AC mains lead is for use with this unit only. Do not use it with other equipment. Insertion of connector

Simple setup (continued)
Optional antenna connections
FM outdoor antenna FM outdoor antenna (not included) AM outdoor antenna AM outdoor antenna (not included)
AM loop antenna (included)
75 coaxial cable (not included)
Never use an outdoor antenna during a lightning storm. You can connect the FM outdoor antenna for better reception. Please consult your dealer for installation. Disconnect the FM indoor antenna if an FM outdoor antenna is installed. Connect the AM outdoor antenna without removing the AM loop antenna. Run 5 to 12 m of vinyl-covered wire horizontally along a window or other convenient location.
Preparing the remote control
Batteries Insert so the poles (+ and ) match those in the remote control. Remove if the remote control is not going to be used for a long period of time. Store in a cool, dark place. Do not use rechargeable type batteries. Do not heat or expose to ame. 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 re. Do not: mix old and new batteries; use different types of batteries at the same time; take apart or short-circuit; attempt to recharge alkaline or manganese batteries; use batteries if their covering has been peeled off.

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 manufacturers instructions.
Use Aim at the remote control sensor, avoiding obstacles, at a maximum range of 7 m directly in front of the unit. Refer to page 6 for remote control signal sensor position.

Troubleshooting guide
Before requesting service, make the below checks. If you cant x the system as described below, or if something not listed here occurs, refer to the enclosed directory to locate an Authorized Service Center convenient to you or contact your dealer. Common problems No sound. Turn the volume up. The speaker cords may not be connected properly. Turn the unit off, check and correct the connections and turn the unit on ( page 4). Check the speaker connections ( page 4). An AC mains lead or uorescent light is near the cables. Keep other appliances and leads away from this units cables. If possible in your area, turn the AC mains leads plug or connector over to reverse the leads polarity. Incorrect operation performed. Read the instructions and try again. You plugged the AC mains lead in for the rst time or there was a power failure recently. Set the time ( page 11). Check and correct the speaker cord connections ( page 4). If this does not x the problem, there is a power supply problem. Consult the dealer.
Sounds unxed, reversed or come from one speaker only. Humming heard during play.
ERROR is displayed. - -:- - appears on the display. F76 is displayed.
Listening to the radio Noise is heard. The stereo indicator ickers or doesnt light. Sound is distorted. A beat sound is heard. A low hum is heard during AM broadcast. An AM broadcast station cannot be picked up clearly. When there is a television set nearby The picture on the TV disappears or stripes appear on the screen. The location and direction of the antenna are incorrect. If you are using an indoor antenna, change to an outdoor antenna ( page 5). The TV antenna wire is too close to the unit. Separate the antenna wire of the TV set from the unit. Use an outdoor antenna ( page 5).

Turn the TV off or separate it from the unit. Separate the antenna from other cables and cords. Frequency step is set to 10 kHz. Change the frequency step to 9 kHz ( page 10).
Using the cassette deck Southeast Asia Recording is not possible. If the erasure prevention tabs have been removed, cover the holes with adhesive tape ( page 9).
Playing discs The display is wrong or play wont start. The disc may be upside down ( page 8). Wipe the disc. Replace the disc if it is scratched, warped, or non-standard. Condensation may have formed inside the unit due to a sudden change in temperature. Wait about an hour for it to clear and try again.
The remote control Remote control doesnt work. Check that the batteries are inserted correctly ( page 5). Replace the batteries if they are worn.
USB No response when [ REC/8] button is pressed. The USB drive or its contents cannot be read. Disconnet the USB device and then reconnect it back. Alternatively, turn the unit off and then back on. The USB drive format or its contents is/are not compatible with the system ( page 13). The USB host function of this product may not work with some USB devices. USB devices with storage capacity of more than 8 gigabytes may not work in some instances. Large le size or high memory USB ash drive takes longer time to read. The USB mass storage device rating exceeds 500mA. Disconnect the USB device. Turn the unit off and then back on. Check the content. Only MP3 format les can be played.
Slow operation of the USB ash drive. USB OVER CURRENT ERROR
