SAFETY PRECAUTIONS CLEANING Do not use volatile solvents such as alcohol, paint thinner, gasoline, benzine, etc. to clean the cabinet. Use a silicone cloth or a clean dry cloth. VENTILATION HOLES The case top is slotted to allow ventilation. Never block these holes with ornamental cloths, books, or other objects. Make sure that metal objects such as coins, hair- pins, or needles do not enter the unit through the ventilation holes. The result could be a serious malfunction or a possi- ble shock hazard. Make sure that children do not insert foreign objects into the ventilation holes. FM OUTDOOR DIRECTION OF nruterurul FM STATION SERVICE OR MODIFICATIONS Do not remove the cabinet or touch internal parts. Refer all service to qualified service personnel. Unauthoriz- ed modifications can result in a dangerous shock hazard and can void the warranty. POWER CORD Always insert or remove the power plug from the AC outlet by grasping the plug body.

SYSTEM CONNECTIONS SPEAKERS lf only one set of speakers is to be connected' make connections to the terminals marked SPEAKERS A, as shown on page 2. Connect the speakers to the I and @ terminals in accordance with the location selected for each speaker. To ensure correct speaker phasing, observe polarity marks; connect terminals marked f on the receiver to similarly-marked speaker terminals. Do the same for receiver and speaker terminals marked with a minus sign. Reversal of speaker leads will result in loss of bass tones and poor stereo separation. lf a second set of speakers is to be used, make connections at the right set of terminals' marked B. A third set of speakers may be connected to the terminals marked C. Notes: 1. lf a single pair of speakers or two pairs of speakers in combi- nation with B and C are to be used. each speaker must be rated at 4 ohms or more. 2. lf three pairs of speakers are to be conn€ct€d to the SPEAKERS A, B, and C terminals and operated altogether, or in combination with A and B, or A and C, each speaker must be rated at 8 ohms or mor€. WARNING ! Particular att€ntion must b€ given to making good electtrical contact at th€ receiver-output and speakel terminals. Poor or loose connections can causs sparking or burning at the terminals because of the very high powor that the receiver can deliver. Follow these steps carefully. 1. Strip 10 mm {3/8 inch) of insulation from the ends of the speaker cable. Twist the bare strands of wire together and solder the ends to keep the strands from separating. TURNTABLES Your stereo turntable has two audio cables that are terminated with phono plugs. Plug the left channel plug into the l-Lland the right channel plug into ttte f]PHONO 1 INPUT jacks as shown on page 2. lf an additional turntable is to be used, make similar connections at the PHONO 2 jacks. lf the turntable has a ground wire, connect it to the unit's GND terminal to avoid hum. AUX JACKS INPUT AUX jacks are used to connect other high-level signal sources, such as tuners, extra tape decks (equipped with preamps). TV or WR sound output mic preamps, etc. TAPE DECKS lf only one tape deck is to be connected to the system it is recommended that it be connected to the jacks marked TAPE A. Tape deck input and output cables are normally terminated with phono plugs. Playback Plug the left and right output cables of the tape deck into the I and @ rnee A PLAY jacks. Record Plug the left and right input cables of the tape deck into the f ano @ rnee A REC jacks. DIN Connector lf your tape deck is equipped with a DIN connector, connect it to the TAPE B REC/PLAY connector with the DIN connecting cord. The DIN connection makes both input and output connections with a single cord, and the signal must be controlled with the MONITOR switch on the front panel. Note:lf connections are made with a DIN connecting cord, the TAPE B PLAY and REC jacks should not be used. Second Tape Deck Plug the input and output cables from the second tape deck into the REC and PLAY jacks marked B. AC OUTLETS The AC outlets on the rear panel of the receiver may be used to supply power to other components such as a turn- table, tape deck, etc. 1. SWITCHED OUTLETS These outlets are controlled by the POWER switch and the Timer on the front panel. (The total capacity is 200 watts maximum.) 2. UNSWITCHED outlet This outlet delivers power at all times. (The capacity is 2OO watts maximum.) Note:Never connect any equipment whose power consumption exceeds the capacity of each outlet. lO mm (3/8 inch) 2. Back the caps of the SPEAKER terminals on the receiver all the way out by turning them counterclockwise as far as they will go. 3. lnsert one end of the red cable into the hole in the * terminal as shown below. Turn the cap clockwise and tighten securely to ensure a firm contact. Connections at your speakers will vary depending upon the type of terminals used. Check the manufacturer's instructions and make sure that a good, tight, metal-to- metal contact is made. Check all connections. Make sure all are tight, and that there are no loose strands of wire touching the wrong terminals or the metal cabinet or trim. 4. 5. Super Eleven (U) 3
