regarding installation, hookups and
settings.
Installing the Main Unit
When you mount the Main Unit, note the following:
• Place the Main Unit on a flat and level surface.
• When installing it in a cabinet, make sure the back of
the cabinet is open to allow adequate ventilation,
prevent heat buildup, and prolong the life of the unit.
• Place a board under the Main Unit if it is located on a
carpet to allow adequate ventilation on the bottom.
• Make sure the weight is equally distributed on each of
its four feet.
• Do not place anything on the top of the Main Unit that
might block the ventilation holes and cause
malfunction.
• Do not place anything on the front or rear panel that
might damage the Main Unit’s control buttons and
connectors.
• Use caution when placing the unit or speakers on
surfaces that have been specially treated (with wax, oil,
polish, etc.) as staining or discoloration of the surface
may result.
Leave at least 3 inches (76.2 mm) on each side for
ventilation.
