GETTING STARTED (continued)
Unpacking Your System
Carefully remove all items from the shipping carton. Be sure to remove all
packing materials and wrappings.
We recommend that you save the shipping carton and packing materials in
the event you want to store, transport, or ship the unit in the future.
Your new RCA audio system includes the following items:
l
Tuner/Amplifier unit
l
AM loop antenna
l
CD/Cassette unit
. Two front speakers
l
Hand-held remote control
l
Two P-meter speaker wires
l
l-meter FM antenna wire
Where to Place the System
l
Choose a convenient location that provides a solid, level surface. Do not
place the unit on a soft surface such as carpeting or foam rubber.
l
Select a location away from direct sunlight, radiators, air ducts, and other
sources of heat.
l
Avoid locations that are subject to moisture, mechanical vibration, shock, or
excessive dust.
l
Be sure the location provides adequate air circulation. Good ventilation is
essential to protect the system from internal heat built-up.
NOTE: Locate your system in a spot that allows for best positioning of the
speakers. Optimal sound reproduction occurs when:
l
Speakers are placed at least seven feet apart and facing the listener.
l
Speakers are placed at least two to three feet out from the wall to prevent
accentuated bass response.
l
Also see “Placing Speakers,” page 6, for suggested speaker positions.
IMPORTANT: MOISTURE CONDENSATION
Moisture is often seen on the inside of the windows in a warm room on a
cold winter day. Moisture can also form inside the player in a similar manner
in the following cases;
l
Immediately after a heater has been turned on.
l
In a steamy or very humid room.
l
When the unit is suddenly moved from a cold environment to a warm moist one,
for example, in moving a unit from a cool air conditioned room to an outside
porch on a humid summer day.
If moisture forms inside this player, it may not operate properly. To cor-
I rect this problem, turn off the power and wait about 20 or 30 minutes for
1 the moisture to evaporate.
