Precautions
Please read this manual carefully, particularly
the Caution information on page 2. In addi-
tion to basic installation and operating instruc-
tions this manual provides valuable informa-
tion on various system configurations as well
as general information that will help you get
the most from your system. Please contact your
authorized Rotel dealer for answers to any ques-
tions you might have. In addition, all of us at
Rotel welcome your questions and comments.
Save the RDV-1050 shipping carton and all
enclosed packing material for future use. Ship-
ping or moving the RDV-1050 in anything
other than the original packing material may
result in severe damage.
Be sure to keep the original sales receipt. It is
your best record of the date of purchase, which
you will need in the event warranty service is
ever required.
Placement
Place the RDV-1050 on a surface that is level,
dry and neither too hot nor too cold (between
5˚C and 35˚C, 41˚F and 95˚F). Do not place
the unit where it will be exposed to direct sun-
light. Avoid locations that are dusty. Do not
place the unit too close to the television set.
Do not place the RDV-1050 where it will be
exposed to vibrations, such as near a sub-
woofer. To ensure proper ventilation observe
the minimum clearance specifications listed in
the safety information on page 2.
Audio/Video Connections
NOTE: Do not plug in the power cable un-
til all audio/video signal connections are
complete. Do not change any audio/video
cable connections until the RDV-1050 has
been unplugged from the power outlet.
Carefully read the instructions supplied with
the components you are going to connect to
the RDV-1050 to be sure they are compatible.
If you have questions, contact your authorized
Rotel dealer.
NOTE: Connect VIDEO OUT
of the
unit directly to the video input of your TV.
Connecting VIDEO OUT to a TV via a VCR
may result in unacceptable video quality
because many discs are copy-protected.
