Important Safeguards
1. Read Instructions ­ All the safety and operating
instructions should be read before the appliance is
operated.
2. Retain Instructions ­ The safety and operating
instructions should be retained for future reference.
3. Heed Warnings ­ All warnings on the appliance and
in the operating instructions should be adhered to.
4. Follow Instructions ­ All operating and use
instructions should be followed.
5. Cleaning ­ Unplug the appliance from the wall out-
let before cleaning. The appliance should be cleaned
only as recommended by the manufacturer.
6. Attachments ­ Do not use attachments not recom-
mended by the appliance manufacturer as they may
cause hazards.
7. Water and Moisture ­ Do not use the appliance near
water ­for example, near a bath tub, wash bowl,
kitchen sink, or laundry tub; in a wet basement; or
near a swimming pool; and the like.
8. Accessories ­ Do not place the appliance on an
unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The
appliance may fall, causing serious injury to a child
or adult, and serious damage to the appliance. Use
only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table rec-
ommended by the manufacturer, or sold with the
appliance. Any mounting of the appliance should
follow the manufacturer's instructions, and should
use a mounting accessory recommended by the
manufacturer.
9. An appliance and cart com-
bination should be moved
with
care.
Quick
stops,
excessive force, and uneven
surfaces
may
cause
the
appliance and cart combina-
tion to overturn.
10. Ventilation ­ Slots and openings in the cabinet are
provided for ventilation and to ensure reliable oper-
ation of the appliance and to protect it from over-
heating, and these openings must not be blocked or
covered. The openings should never be blocked by
placing the appliance on a bed, sofa, rug, or other
similar surface. The appliance should not be placed
in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack
unless proper ventilation is provided. There should
be free space of at least 20 cm (8 in.) and an open-
ing behind the appliance.
11. Power Sources ­ The appliance should be operated
only from the type of power source indicated on the
marking label. If you are not sure of the type of
power supply to your home, consult your appliance
dealer or local power company.
12. Grounding or Polarization ­ The appliance may
be equipped with a polarized alternating current line
plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other).
This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way.
This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert
the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug.
If the plug should still fail to fit, contact your electri-
cian to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat
the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
13. Power-Cord Protection ­ Power-supply cords
should be routed so that they are not likely to be
walked on or pinched by items placed upon or
against them, paying particular attention to cords at
plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where
they exit from the appliance.
14. Lightning ­ For added protection for the appliance
during a lightning storm, or when it is left unat-
tended 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 appli-
ance due to lightning and power-line surges.
15. Overloading ­ Do not overload wall outlets, exten-
sion cords, or integral convenience receptacles as
this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.
16. Object and Liquid Entry ­ Never push objects of
any kind into the appliance 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 appliance.
17. Servicing ­ Do not attempt to service the appliance
yourself as opening or removing covers may expose
you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all
servicing to qualified service personnel.
WARNING:
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC
SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO
RAIN OR MOISTURE.
CAUTION:
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO
NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK). NO USER-
SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE. REFER SERVICING
TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an
equilateral
triangle, is intended to alert the user to
the presence of uninsulated
"dangerous voltage"
within the product's enclosure that may be of
sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric
shock to persons.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is
intended to alert the user to the presence of important
operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in
the literature accompanying the appliance.

Important Safeguards--Continued
18. Damage Requiring Service ­ Unplug the appli-
ance form the wall outlet and refer servicing to
qualified service personnel under the following con-
ditions:
A. When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged,
B. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen
into the appliance,
C. If the appliance has been exposed to rain or
water,
D. If the appliance does not operate normally by
following the operating instructions. Adjust only
those controls that are covered by the operating
instructions as an improper adjustment of other
controls may result in damage and will often
require extensive work by a qualified technician
to restore the appliance to its normal operation,
E. If the appliance has been dropped or damaged in
any way, and
F. When the appliance exhibits a distinct change in
performance ­ this indicates a need for service.
19. Replacement Parts ­ When replacement parts are
required, be sure the service technician has used
replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or
have the same characteristics as the original part.
Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, elec-
tric shock, or other hazards.
20. Safety Check ­ Upon completion of any service or
repairs to the appliance, ask the service technician to
perform safety checks to determine that the appliance
is in proper operation condition.
21. Wall or Ceiling Mounting ­ The appliance should
be mounted to a wall or ceiling only as recom-
mended by the manufacturer.
22. Heat ­ The appliance should be situated away from
heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves,
or other appliances (including amplifiers) that pro-
duce heat.
23. Liquid Hazards ­ The appliance should not be
exposed to dripping or splashing and no objects
filled with liquids, such as vases should be placed
on the appliance.
Precautions
1. Mounting
Mount the speakers as explained in this manual. Don't
use the front or surround speakers without their bases or
optional stands as damage or injury may result.
2. AC Fuse
The fuse is located inside the chassis and is not userser-
viceable. If power does not come on, contact your Onkyo
authorized service station.
3. Care
From time to time you should wipe off the front and rear
panels and the cabinet with a soft cloth. For heavier dirt,
dampen a soft cloth in a weak solution of mild detergent
and water, wring it out dry, and wipe off the dirt. Follow-
ing this, dry immediately with a clean cloth. Do not use
rough material, thinners, alcohol or other chemical sol-
vents or cloths since these may damage the finish or
remove the panel lettering.
Use a vacuum cleaner to remove dust from hard-to-reach
grilles.
4. Power
WARNING
BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE UNIT FOR THE
FIRST TIME, READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION

according to country or region. Be sure that the power
supply voltage of the area where this unit will be used
meets the required voltage (e.g., AC 120 V, 60 Hz) writ-
ten on the rear panel.
