Precautions  
1. Recording Copyright—Unless it’s for personal use  
only, recording copyrighted material is illegal without the  
permission of the copyright holder.  
2. AC Fuse—The AC fuse inside the unit is not user  
serviceable. If you cannot turn on the unit, contact your  
Onkyo dealer.  
3. Care—Occasionally you should dust the unit all over  
with a soft cloth. For stubborn stains, use a soft cloth  
dampened with a weak solution of mild detergent and  
water. Dry the unit immediately afterwards with a clean  
cloth. Don’t use abrasive cloths, thinners, alcohol, or other  
chemical solvents, because they may damage the finish or  
remove the panel lettering.  
For British models  
Replacement and mounting of an AC plug on the power  
supply cord of this unit should be performed only by qualified  
service personnel.  
IMPORTANT  
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with  
the following code:  
Blue:Neutral  
Brown:Live  
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this apparatus  
may not correspond with the coloured 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 coloured black.  
The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the  
terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured red.  
4. Power  
WARNING  
BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE UNIT FOR THE FIRST  
TIME, READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION  
CAREFULLY.  
IMPORTANT  
AC outlet voltages vary from country to country. Make  
sure that the voltage in your area meets the voltage  
requirements printed on the unit’s rear panel (e.g., AC 120  
V, 60 Hz or AC 220-240 V, 50/60 Hz).  
The power cord plug is used to disconnect this unit from  
the AC power source. Make sure that the plug is readily  
operable (easily accessible) at all times.  
The plug is fitted with an appropriate fuse. If the fuse needs to  
be replaced, the replacement fuse must approved by ASTA or  
BSI to BS1362 and have the same ampere rating as that  
indicated on the plug. Check for the ASTA mark or the BSI  
mark on the body of the fuse.  
If the power cord’s plug is not suitable for your socket outlets,  
cut it off and fit a suitable plug. Fit a suitable fuse in the plug.  
Pressing the [POWER] button to select OFF mode does  
not fully shutdown the unit. If you do not intend to use the  
unit for an extended period, remove the power cord from  
the AC outlet.

Notes  
Two sets of speakers can be connected to the amplifier. You can  
select which speakers to output audio to when listening to music.  
You can also output audio from both sets of speakers.  
Connecting a Turntable  
-
North American model:  
If you only connect one set of speakers (A or B), make sure to  
use speakers with an impedance of 2 to 16 Ohms.  
If you connect both sets of speakers (A and B), make sure to  
use speakers with an impedance of 4 to 16 Ohms. If you  
connect speakers with impedance less than 4 Ohms, it may  
cause the protection circuit to activate.  
Turn off the unit.  
Use the MM/MC selector on the back of the  
unit to select either MM or MC, in accordance  
with the cartridge format of the turntable.  
-
Other models:  
If you only connect one set of speakers (A or B), make sure to  
use speakers with an impedance of 4 to 16 Ohms.  
If you connect both sets of speakers (A and B), make sure to  
use speakers with an impedance of 8 to 16 Ohms. If you  
connect speakers with impedance less than 8 Ohms, it may  
cause the protection circuit to activate.  
Caution  
!
Caution  
!
-
Take care of the positive and negative wires when  
connecting the left and right speakers. Mixing up the  
connections will cause the audio to sound unnatural.  
Do not connect more than one speaker wire to a single  
speaker terminal. Doing so could damage the unit or cause  
it to malfunction.  
When using only one speaker, or when playing back  
monaural audio, do not connect a single speaker to both  
the left and right speaker terminals.  
Always turn off the unit before switching between MM and  
MC.

Troubleshooting  
If you run into problems with the unit, look for a solution below. The problem could also be caused by one of the  
components connected to the unit, so please also check the manuals of each device.  
Caution  
!
-
This unit contains a sophisticated microcomputer for signal processing and control functions. In very rare situations, however, severe  
interference, noise from an external source, or static electricity may cause it to lock up. If this happens, turn off the unit, wait for  
about five seconds, and then turn it on again.  
Onkyo is not responsible for damages (such as CD rental fees) due to unsuccessful recordings caused by the unit's malfunction. Before  
you record important data, make sure that the material will be recorded correctly.
