Installing the receiver
! When installing this unit, make sure to put it on a level and stable surface.
! Don’t install it on the following places:
— on a color TV (the screen may distort)
— near a cassette deck (or close to a device that gives off a magnetic field). This may interfere with the sound.
— in direct sunlight
