not always match what appears in the manual.
Turning the Power On and Off
Turning On the Power
* Once the connections have been completed (User Guide p. 12),
turn on the power to your various devices in the order
specified. By turning on devices in the wrong order, you risk
causing malfunction and/or damage to speakers and other
devices.
* Always make sure to have the volume level turned down before
switching on the power. Even with the volume all the way
down, you may still hear some sound when the power is
switched on, but this is normal and does not indicate a
malfunction.
1. Turn on the power with the POWER switch on the rear
panel of the VS-1824.
* When you turn on the power of the VS-1824, the drive must
be recognized and certain required data must be loaded. Thus,
it takes a moment for the unit to finish booting up.
When the VS-1824 starts up properly, the following
display will appear.

hard drive. Avoid moving the VS-1824 with a hard drive
installed for at least 30 seconds after turning off the power.
