Safety precautions
Placement
Set the system up on an even surface away from direct sunlight,
high temperatures, high humidity, and excessive vibration. These
conditions can damage the cabinet and other components, thereby
shortening the unit’s service life.
Place it at least 15 cm away from wall surfaces to avoid distortion
and unwanted acoustical effects.
Do not place heavy items on the unit.
Voltage
Do not use high voltage power sources. This can overload the unit
and cause a fire.
Do not use a DC power source. Check the source carefully when
setting the unit up on a ship or other place where DC is used.
AC mains lead protection
Ensure the AC mains lead is connected correctly and not dam-
aged. Poor connection and lead damage can cause fire or electric
shock. Do not pull, bend, or place heavy items on the lead.
Grasp the plug firmly when unplugging the lead. Pulling the AC
mains lead can cause electric shock.
Do not handle the plug with wet hands. This can cause electric
shock.
Foreign matter
Do not let metal objects fall inside the unit. This can cause electric
shock or malfunction.
Do not let liquids get into the unit. This can cause electric shock or
malfunction. If this occurs, immediately disconnect the unit from the
power supply and contact your dealer.
Do not spray insecticides onto or into the unit. They contain flam-
mable gases which can ignite if sprayed into the unit.
Service
Do not attempt to repair this unit by yourself. If sound is interrupted,
indicators fail to light, smoke appears, or any other problem that is not
covered in these instructions occurs, disconnect the AC mains lead
and contact your dealer or an authorized service center. Electric
shock or damage to the unit can occur if the unit is repaired, disas-
sembled or reconstructed by unqualified persons.
Extend operating life by disconnecting the unit from the power
source if it is not to be used for a long time.

For your safety, please read the following text
carefully.
This appliance is supplied with a moulded three pin
mains plug for your safety and convenience.
A 5-ampere fuse is fitted in this plug.
Should the fuse need to be replaced please ensure
that the replacement fuse has a rating of 5-ampere
and that it is approved by ASTA or BSI to BS1362.
Check for the ASTA mark m or the BSI mark o on
the body of the fuse.
If the plug contains a removable fuse cover you must
ensure that it is refitted when the fuse is replaced.
If you lose the fuse cover the plug must not be used
until a replacement cover is obtained.
A replacement fuse cover can be purchased from
your local dealer.
WARNING: DO NOT CONNECT EITHER WIRE TO
THE EARTH TERMINAL WHICH IS MARKED WITH
THE LETTER E, BY THE EARTH SYMBOL nn
nn
n OR
COLOURED GREEN OR GREEN/YELLOW.
THIS PLUG IS NOT WATERPROOF—KEEP DRY.
Before use
Remove the connector cover.
How to replace the fuse
The location of the fuse differ according to the type of
AC mains plug (figures A and B). Confirm the AC
mains plug fitted and follow the instructions below.
Illustrations may differ from actual AC mains plug.
1. Open the fuse cover with a screwdriver.
2. Replace the fuse and close or attach the fuse
cover.

Caution for AC Mains Lead
If a new plug is to be fitted please observe the wiring
code as stated below.
If in any doubt please consult a qualified electrician.
IMPORTANT
The wires in this mains lead are coloured in accor-
dance with the following code:
Blue: Neutral, Brown: Live.
As these colours may not correspond with the col-
oured markings identifying the terminals in your plug,
proceed as follows:
The wire which is coloured Blue must be connected to
the terminal which is marked with the letter N or col-
oured Black or Blue.
The wire which is coloured Brown must be connected
to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or col-
oured Brown or Red.
CAUTION!
IF THE FITTED MOULDED PLUG IS UNSUIT-
ABLE FOR THE SOCKET OUTLET IN YOUR
HOME THEN THE FUSE SHOULD BE RE-
MOVED AND THE PLUG CUT OFF AND DIS-
POSED OF SAFELY.
THERE IS A DANGER OF SEVERE ELECTRI-
CAL SHOCK IF THE CUT OFF PLUG IS IN-
SERTED INTO ANY 13-AMPERE SOCKET.

Caution
³Use the speakers only with the recommended system.
Failure to do so may lead to damage to the amplifier
and/or the speakers, and may result in the risk of fire.
Consult a qualified service person if damage has
occurred or if you experience a sudden change in
performance.
³Do not attempt to attach these speakers to walls using
methods other than those described in this manual.

CPlacement of center/surround
speakers
Center speaker
Place the center speaker (a) directly above the television.
Surround speakers
Place the surround speakers (b, c) either side of the listening posi-
tion, or slightly to the rear, about 1 meter higher than ear level.
Place the speakers with the Technics logo facing toward the listening
position.
However the position should be adjusted to your personal prefer-
ence, because the effect varies to some degree depending upon the
type of music and the music source.
Note
If you are unable to position the surround speakers as recommend-
ed, you can put them near the front speakers and still achieve a sur-
round-like effect ( page 27, “VIRTUAL REAR SURROUND”).
[D] Attaching to a wall
Set speaker onto screws and slide through bracket to lock into posi-
tion.
Note
The wall or pillar on which the speaker systems are to be attached
should be capable of supporting 5 kg.
If irregular coloring occurs on your television
Turn the television off for about 30 minutes.
The television’s demagnetizing function should correct the problem.
If it persists, move the speakers further away from the television.

en up before the tape is played.
³Endless tapes can get caught up in the deck’s moving parts if used
incorrectly. Use tapes appropriate to this unit’s auto-reverse mech-
anism.

If there is noise between tracks.
If there are silent parts within tracks.
Dolby noise reduction
Dolby NR reduces “hissing” when playing tapes. It increases the high
frequency region when recording and then reduces it in playback.
Use the same system during playback and recording. This unit has
Dolby B NR which reduces noise to a third.
Prerecorded cassettes and equipment marked “ë” use Dolby B NR.
