3 Connect the AC cord to an AC outlet.
The demo display will begin when the AC cord is plugged into
an AC outlet for the first time after purchase. When the power
is turned on, the demo display will end. When the power is
turned off, the demo display will begin again.
Until the clock is set, the demo display will begin whenever the
power is turned off.
(For setting the clock, see page 26.)
When the clock is set for the first time after purchase
All the display lights turn off when the power is off. (Only the red
indicator on the POWER button lights up.)
This is because the power economizing mode of the unit is
activated, and is not a malfunction. To view the clock in this case,
press CLOCK while pressing SHIFT on the remote control so
that the time is displayed for 4 seconds. Besides, the time will be
displayed if you set the power economizing mode to "OFF." (See
page 7 for details.)
Activating the demo display after setting the clock
While the unit is turned off, press DEMO/ECO on the main unit. To
deactivate the demo display, press DEMO/ECO again.

NOTE
• Be sure to connect the speaker cords correctly. Improper
connections can cause short circuits in the SPEAKERS
terminals.
• Do not leave objects generating magnetism near the speakers,
as these objects may be damaged.
• Do not bring the FM antenna near metal objects or curtain rails.
• Do not bring the AM loop antenna near other optional equipment,
the stereo system itself, the AC cord or speaker cords, since
noise will be picked up.
• Do not unwind the AM loop antenna wire.
• Do not cover the ventilation openings on the rear.
