Introduction
Congratulations on Your Purchase!
Your new high fidelity receiver is designed to deliver
maximum enjoyment and years of trouble free service.
Please take a few moments to read this manual
thoroughly. It will explain the features and operation of
your unit and help ensure a trouble free installation.
Please unpack your unit carefully. We recommend that
you save the carton and packing material. They will be
helpful if you ever need to move your unit and may be
required if you ever need to return it for service. Your unit
is designed to be placed in a horizontal position and it is
important to allow at least two inches of space behind
your unit for adequate ventilation and cabling
convenience.
To avoid damage, never place the unit near radiators, in
front of heating vents, in direct sunlight, or in excessively
humid or dusty locations. Connect your complementary
components as illustrated in the following section.

FOR U.S.A AND CANADA ............................. 120 V
Units shipped to the U.S.A and Canada are designed
for operation on 120 V AC only.
Safety precaution with use of a polarized AC plug.
However, some products may be supplied with a
nonpolarized plug.
CAUTION : To prevent electric shock, match wide
blade of plug to wide slot, fully insert.
FOR YOUR SAFETY
FOR EUROPE AND AUSTRALIA ........ 230 V/240 V
Units shipped to Australia are designed for operation
on 240 V AC only.
To ensure safe operation, the three-pin plug supplied
must be inserted only into a standard three-pin
power point which is effectively earthed through the
normal household wiring. Extension cords used with
the equipment must be three-core and be correctly
wired to provide connection to earth.
Improper extension cords are a major cause of
fatalities. The fact that the equipment operates
satisfactorily does not imply that the power point is
earthed and that the installation is completely safe.
For your safety, if in any doubt about the effective
earthing of the power point, consult a qualified
electrician.
