READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY.
AC outlet voltages vary from country to country. Make sure that
the voltage in your area meets the voltage requirements printed on
the HT-R8230’s rear panel (e.g., AC 230 V, 50 Hz or AC 120 V,
60 Hz).
Setting the [STANDBY/ON] switch to STANDBY does not fully
shutdown the HT-R8230. If you do not intend to use the HT-
R8230 for an extended period, remove the power cord from the
AC outlet.
