■ IMPEDANCE SELECTOR switch

Do not change the IMPEDANCE SELECTOR switch

while the power of this unit is turned on, as doing so may

damage the unit.

If the unit fails to turn on, the IMPEDANCE SELECTOR

switch may not be fully slid to either position. If this is the

case, remove the power cable and slide the switch all the

way to either position.

Select the switch position (LOW or HIGH) according to

the impedance of the speakers in your system.

■ Connecting speaker cables

When inserting speaker cables into the speaker terminals, insert

only the bare speaker wire. If insulated cable is inserted, the

connection may be poor and sound may not be heard.

■ Bi-wire connection

Bi-wire connection separates the woofer from the

combined midrange and tweeter section. A bi-wire

compatible speaker has four binding post terminals. These

two sets of terminals allow the speaker to be split into two

independent sections. With these connections, the mid and

high frequency drivers are connected to one set of

terminals and the low frequency driver to another set of

terminals.

Connect the other speaker to the other set of terminals in

the same way.

When making bi-wire connections, set the IMPEDANCE

SELECTOR switch to HIGH or LOW depending on the

impedance of your speakers:

8 Ω or higher: HIGH

4 Ω or higher: LOW

See page 11 for more information about the

IMPEDANCE SELECTOR switch.

When making bi-wire connections, remove the shorting bridges

or cables on the speaker.

OPERATION

English

There are 2 tuning methods; automatic and manual. Select either method according to your preference and the strength of

station signals.

Automatic tuning is effective when station signals are

strong and there is no interference.

1 Rotate the INPUT selector on the front panel

(or press FM or AM on the remote control) to

select TUNER as the input source.

If you press FM or AM on the remote control to select TUNER as

the input source, the corresponding band is also selected,

therefore you may skip step 2.

2 Press FM or AM on the front panel (or FM or

AM on the remote control) to select the

reception band (FM or AM).

FM or AM is displayed on the front panel display.

3 Press and hold TUNING jj / ii on the front

panel for more than 1 second to begin

automatic tuning.

Press ii to tune in to a higher frequency.

Press jj to tune in to a lower frequency.

• When you tune in to a station, the frequency of the station is

displayed on the front panel display.

• If the tuning search does not stop at the desired station because

the station signals are weak, try using the manual tuning

method.

■ Auto Mute feature

When listening to an FM radio station, the output will

automatically be muted when the radio signal is weak if

the station was tuned in to by:

• using the automatic tuning feature

• recalling a preset that was registered using the

automatic preset registration feature

If you want to listen to a station that has a weak signal,

tune in to the station manually.
