NOTE:
+ Since the power ON and play signals for components bearing the
§@] mark called by Auto source control are output through this unit's
CONTROL OUT jack, be sure to connect the control cord (refer to
page 11).
With some components, even if they bear the | mark, power
cannot be switched on and off by remote control. If this is the
case, by connecting the other unit's power cord to this unit's
SWITCHED AC OUTLET, and leaving the other unit's power switch
ON, power switching will depend on whether this unit is on or off.
+ AUTO SOURCE CONTROL memory stores the receiver settings
at that point in time; it does not memorize STATION CALL numbers
(1-30). (The frequency is memorized.)
* During the operation of AUTO SOURCE CONTROL, other
components are also being controlled, so do not perform other
operations until it is finished.
