Setting the voltage selector (Worldwide models only)
Worldwide models are equipped with a voltage selector to
conform with local power supplies. Be sure to set this switch to
match the voltage of the power supply in your area before
plugging in the unit.
Determine the proper voltage for your area: 220-230 V or 120 V. If
the preset voltage is not correct for your area, insert a screwdriver
into the groove in the switch. Slide the switch all the way to the
right (120 V) or to the left (220-230 V), whichever is appropriate.

replace the compartment cover.
Notes:
• Do not mix new batteries with old batteries or different kinds
of batteries.
• To avoid corrosion, remove the batteries if the remote
controller is not to be used for a long time.
• Remove dead batteries immediately to avoid damage from
corrosion. If the remote controller does not operate smoothly,
replace both batteries at the same time.
• The life of the batteries supplied is about six months but this
will vary depending on usage.
Using the remote controller

Notes:
• Place the unit away from strong light such as direct sunlight or
inverted fluorescent light which can prevent proper operation
of the remote controller.
• Using another remote controller of the same type in the same
room or using the unit near equipment which uses infrared rays
may cause operational interference.
• Do not put objects on the remote controller. Its buttons may be
pressed by mistake and drain the batteries.
• Make sure the audio rack doors do not have colored glass.
Placing the unit behind such doors may prevent proper remote
controller operation.
• If there is any obstacle between the remote controller and the
remote control sensor, the remote controller will not operate.
