15) Lightning -- For added protection for this product during a light-
ning 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 light-
ning and power-line surges.
16) Power Lines -- An outside antenna system should not be locat-
ed 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.
17) Overloading -- Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or
integral convenience receptacles as this can result in risk of fire or
electric shock.
18) Object and Liquid Entry -- 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.
19) 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.
20) Damage Requiring Service -- Unplug this product from the
wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under
the following conditions:
a) when the power-supply cord or plug is damaged.
b) if liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the product.
c) if the product has been exposed to rain or water.
d) if the product does not operate normally by following the operat-
ing 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 qual-
ified technician to restore the product to its normal operation.
e) if the product has been dropped or damaged in any way.
f ) when the product exhibits a distinct change in performance _ this
indicates a need for service.
21) 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, electric shock, or
other hazards.
22) Safety Check -- Upon completion of any service or repairs to
this product, ask the service technician to perform safety checks to
determine that the product is in proper operating condition.
23) Wall or Ceiling Mounting -- The product should be mounted to
a wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer.
24) Heat -- The product should be situated away from heat sources
such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other products (includ-
ing amplifiers) that produce heat.
10) Ventilation -- Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for
ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the product and to pro-
tect it from overheating, and these openings must not be blocked or
covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the prod-
uct on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This product should
not be placed in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack
unless proper ventilation is provided or the manufacturer's instruc-
tions have been adhered to.
11) Power Sources -- This product 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 prod-
uct dealer or local power company. For products intended to operate
from battery power, or other sources, refer to the operating instruc-
tions.
12) Grounding or Polarization -- This product 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 electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do
not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
13) Power-Cord Protection -- Power-supply cords should be rout-
ed 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 product.
14) Outdoor Antenna Grounding -- If an outside antenna or
cable system is connected to the product, be sure the antenna or
cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against
voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article 810 of the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information with
regard to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure,
grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of
grounding conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit,
connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the
grounding electrode.

PRECAUTIONS
­ 4 ­
TO THE USER
This equipment has been tested and found to
comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits
are designed to provide reasonable protection
against interference in a residential area. This
device generates and uses radio frequency energy
and if not installed and used in accordance with
the instructions, it may cause interference to
radio or TV reception. If this unit does cause inter-
ference with TV or radio reception you can try to
correct the interference by one or more of the fol-
lowing measures:
a) Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
b) Increase the separation between the equip-
ment and the receiver.
c) Plug the equipment into a different outlet so
that it is not on the same circuit as the receiver.
If necessary, consult the dealer or an experienced
radio/TV technician for additional suggestions.
CAUTION
Changes or modifications to this equipment not
expressly approved by TEAC CORPORATION for
compliance could void the user's authority to
operate this equipment.
For U.S.A.
The equipment draws nominal non-operating
power from the AC outlet with its POWER switch
in the STANDBY position.

VOLTAGE CONVERSION
Be sure to remove the power cord from the AC
outlet before repositioning the voltage converter
switches.
1. Locate the voltage selector on the rear panel.
2. Using a flat-bladed screwdriver, set to the
appropriate 120 V or 230 V position according
to your area.
For General Export Models
AC POWER CORD CONNECTION
CAUTION:
TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK, MATCH WIDE
BLADE OF PLUG TO WIDE SLOT, FULLY INSERT.
For CANADA
Choose the installation location of your unit carefully.
Avoid placing it in direct sunlight or close to a source
of heat. Also avoid locations subject to vibrations and
excessive dust, heat, cold or moisture.
The ventilation holes should not be covered. Make
sure there is at least 20 cm (8 inches) of space above
and at least 5 cm (2 inches) of space beside the
amplifier/receiver. Do not place a CD player or other
equipment on top of the amplifier/receiver.
Do not open the cabinet as this might result in
damage to the circuitry or electrical shock. If a
foreign object should get into the set, contact your
dealer.
When removing the power plug from the wall outlet,
always pull directly on the plug, never yank the cord.
Do not attempt to clean the unit with chemical
solvents as this might damage the finish. Use a
clean, dry cloth.
Keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.
