Getting Started Connections Operation Troubleshooting Specifications NOTE • Use speakers with an impedance of 4 to 16 Ω/ohms. • When making connections, take care that none of the strands in the speaker cable come in contact with adjacent terminals, other speaker cable strands, or with the rear panel and screws. NEVER touch the speaker terminals when the power is on. Doing so can result in electric shocks. Protection circuit When using speakers with an impedance below the designated value (for example 3 Ω/ohms), playing for long periods of time with the volume high can cause the temperature to rise, activating the protection circuit. When this circuit is activated, the output to the speakers is cut off and the power indicator blinks. If this happens, unplug the power cord, wait for the set to cool off and improve ventilation around the unit. Also check the wiring of the input cables and the speaker cables. After doing this, plug the power cord back in and turn the unit's power back on. If the protection circuit is activated again even though there are no problems with the wiring or the ventilation around the unit, switch off the power and contact a DENON service center.

NOTE
Do not connect two FM antennas simultaneously.
• Even if an AM outdoor antenna is used, do not
disconnect the AM loop antenna.
• It is not possible to receive AM broadcasts with
good quality if the AM loop antenna is near
something metallic.
NOTE
• Use speakers with an impedance of 4 to 16 Ω/ohms.
• When making connections, take care that none of the strands in the speaker cable come in contact with
adjacent terminals, other speaker cable strands, or with the rear panel and screws.
NEVER touch the speaker terminals when the power is on. Doing so can result in electric shocks.
Protection circuit
When using speakers with an impedance below the designated value (for example 3 Ω/ohms), playing
for long periods of time with the volume high can cause the temperature to rise, activating the protection
circuit.
When this circuit is activated, the output to the speakers is cut off and the power indicator blinks. If this
happens, unplug the power cord, wait for the set to cool off and improve ventilation around the unit. Also
check the wiring of the input cables and the speaker cables. After doing this, plug the power cord back in
and turn the unit’s power back on.
If the protection circuit is activated again even though there are no problems with the wiring or the
ventilation around the unit, switch off the power and contact a DENON service center.
