[. . . ] Do not mix different kinds of batteries. · To avoid corrosion, remove the batteries if the remote controller is not to be used for a long period of time. · Remove dead batteries immediately to avoid damage from corrosion. If the remote controller does not operate smoothly, replace both batteries at the same time. · The life of the batteries supplied is about six months but will vary depending on usage. Notes: · Place the unit away from strong light such as direct sunlight or inverted fluorescent light, which can prevent proper operation of the remote controller. · Using another remote controller of the same type in the same room or using the unit near equipment that uses infrared rays may cause operational interference. · Do not put any object, such as a book, on the remote controller. The buttons of the remote controller may accidentally be pressed and drain the batteries. · Make sure the audio rack doors do not have colored glass. Placing the unit behind such doors may prevent proper remote controller operation. · If there is an obstacle between the remote controller and the remote control sensor, the remote controller will not operate. 8 Connecting the A-1VL Before Making Any Connections · Read the manuals supplied with your components. · Don't connect the power cord until you've completed all audio and video connctions. Caution: · Do not connect speakers having impedance values of 4 ohms or lower. · Do not connect more than one speaker cord to individual speaker terminals. Connecting more than one speaker cord may cause failure. · Unnecessarily long, or very thin speaker cables may affect the sound quality and should be avoided. · Be careful not to short the positive and negative wires. Doing so may damage the A-1VL. RCA/Phono Connection Color Coding RCA/Phono connections are usually color coded: red and white. Use red plugs to connect right-channel audio inputs and outputs (typically labeled "R"). Use white plugs to connect left-channel audio inputs and outputs (typically labeled "L"). And use yellow plugs to connect composite video inputs and outputs. Analog audio Right (red) Left (white) Right (red) Left (white) · Push plugs in all the way to make good connections (loose connections can cause noise or malfunctions). · To prevent interference, keep audio and video cables away from power cords and speaker cables. 1 Strip away approx. [. . . ] (page 9) · Make sure that the inputs and outputs of all components are connected properly. · Make sure that the polarity of the speaker cables is correct and that the bare wires are in contact with the metal part of each speaker terminal. (page 9) · Make sure that the input source is properly selected. (page 12) · If the MUTE indicator blinks, press the remote controller's [MUTING] button to ummute the A-1VL. [. . . ]
