Introduction

About This Manual

This manual is organized as follows:

· The manual mainly explains operations using the

buttons and controls on the unit. You can also use the

buttons on the remote control if they have the same or

similar names (or marks) as those on the unit.

If operation using the remote control is different from

that using the unit, it is then explained.

· Basic and common information that is the same for many

functions is grouped in one place, and is not repeated in

each procedure. For instance, we do not repeat the

information about turning on/off the unit, setting the

volume, changing the sound effects, and others, which are

explained in the section "Common Operations" on pages 9

to 11.

· The following marks are used in this manual:

Gives you warnings and cautions to prevent

from a damage or risk of fire/electric shock.

for obtaining the best possible performance

from the unit.

Gives you information and hints you had better

know.

too cold -- between 5°C (41°F) and 35°C (95°F).

again.

Others
