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
damage or risk of fire/electric shock.
Also warns you against actions preventing you
from obtaining the best possible performance
from the unit.
Gives you information and hints you should
know.

too cold -- between 5°C (41°F) and 35°C (95°F).
· Install the unit in a location with adequate ventilation to
prevent internal heat from building up in the unit.
· Leave sufficient distance between the unit and the TV.

Should this occur, the unit may malfunction. In this case,
leave the unit turned on for a few hours until the moisture
evaporates, unplug the AC power cord, and then plug it in
again.
Others

unplug the unit and consult your dealer before operating
any further.
