The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol,  
within an equilateral triangle, is intended  
to alert the user to the presence of  
uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within  
the product’s enclosure that may be of  
sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of  
electric shock to persons.  
2. IMPORTANT NOTICE: DO NOT MODIFY THIS  
PRODUCT  
This product, when installed as indicated in the  
instructions contained in this manual, meets FCC  
requirements. Modification not expressly approved

3. CAUTION  
2. CAUTION  
To comply with FCC RF exposure compliance  
requirement, separation distance of at least 20 cm  
must be maintained between the antenna of this  
product and all persons.  
• This product and its antenna must not be  
co-located or operating in conjunction with any  
other antenna or transmitter.  
To reduce potential radio interference to other  
users, the antenna type and its gain should be so  
chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated  
power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that permitted for  
successful communication.  
WARNING:  
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC  
SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE  
TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.  
12. Use only with the cart, stand,  
tripod, bracket, or table specified by  
ATTENTION  
Afin de réduire le risque d’interférence aux autres  
utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type d’antenne et

Cautions on handling  
Discs playable on this unit  
qMusic CDs  
• Place the disc in the tray, label side up.  
• Do not get fingerprints, oil or dirt on discs.  
• Make sure the disc tray is fully open when inserting the disc.  
• Place the discs flat, 12 cm discs in the outer tray guide (Figure 1), 8  
cm discs in the inner tray guide (Figure 2).  
• Take special care not to scratch discs when removing them from  
their cases.  
• Do not bend or heat discs.  
Discs marked with the logo below can be played in this unit.  
• Do not enlarge the hole in the center.  
• Do not write on the labeled (printed) surface with ball-point pens,  
pencils, etc., or stick new labels on discs.  
• Water droplets may form on discs if they are moved suddenly from  
a cold place (outdoors for example) to a warm place, but do not try to  
dry them off using a hairdryer, etc.

NOTE  
• Discs in special shapes (heart-shaped discs, octagonal discs, etc.)  
cannot be played. Do not attempt to play them, as doing so can  
damage the unit.

• Some discs and some recording  
formats cannot be played.  
• Non-finalized discs cannot be  
played.  
• What is finalization?  
Cautions on storing discs  
• Be sure to remove discs after using them.  
• Be sure to store discs in their cases to protect them from dust,  
scratches, warping, etc.  
• Do not store discs in the following places:  
1. Places exposed to direct sunlight for long periods of time  
2. Dusty or humid places  
Finalization is the process that  
makes recorded CD-R/CD-RW discs playable on compatible players.  
• Place 8 cm discs in the inner tray guide without using an adapter.  
3. Places exposed to heat from heaters, etc.  
Holding discs  
• “Unsupported” is displayed if a disc that cannot be played is loaded.  
• “No Disc” is displayed if the disc is loaded upside-down or if no disc  
is loaded.  
Cleaning discs  
• If there are fingerprints or dirt on a disc, wipe them off before using  
the disc. Fingerprints and dirt can impair sound quality and cause  
interruptions in playback.  
Do not touch the signal surface.  
NOTE  
Do not push the disc tray in by hand when the power is turned off.  
Doing so could damage the set.  
• Use a commercially available disc cleaning set or a soft cloth to clean  
discs.  
Cautions on loading discs  
• Only load one disc at a time. Loading two or more discs can damage  
the unit or scratch the discs.  
• Do not use cracked or warped discs or discs that have been repaired  
with adhesive, etc.  
• Do not use discs on which the sticky part of cellophane tape or labels  
is exposed or on which there are traces of where labels have been  
removed. Such discs can get caught inside the player and damage it.

NOTE  
Do not use record spray, antistatic agents, benzene, thinner or other  
solvents.

NOTE  
• Insert the specified batteries in the remote control unit.  
• Replace the batteries with new ones if the set does not operate  
even when the remote control unit is operated close to the unit. (The  
supplied batteries are only for verifying operation.)  
• When inserting the batteries, be sure to do so in the proper direction,  
following the qand wmarks in the battery compartment.  
• To prevent damage or leakage of battery fluid:  
• Do not use a new battery together with an old one.  
• Do not use two different types of batteries.  
• Do not attempt to charge dry batteries.  
• Do not short-circuit, disassemble, heat or dispose of batteries in  
flames.  
• Do not keep the battery in a place exposed to direct sunlight or in  
places with extremely high temperatures, such as near a heater.  
• If the battery fluid should leak, carefully wipe the fluid off the inside  
of the battery compartment and insert new batteries.  
• Remove the batteries from the remote control unit if it will not be in  
use for long periods.  
• Used batteries should be disposed of in accordance with the local  
regulations regarding battery disposal.

Connecting the speaker cables  
NOTE  
Carefully check the left (L) and right (R) channels and + (red) and –  
(black) polarities on the speakers being connected to the unit, and be  
sure to connect the channels and polarities correctly.  
Pin-plug cable  
Speaker cable  
(Black)  
• Do not plug in the power cord until all connections have been  
completed.  
• When making connections, also refer to the owner’s manual of the  
other components.  
• Be sure to connect the left and right channels properly (left with left,  
right with right).  
• Do not bundle power supply cords together with connection cables.  
Doing so can result in humming or noise.  
Peel off about 10 mm of sheathing

• Use speakers with an impedance of 4 to 16 Ω. The protection circuit  
may be activated if speakers with an impedance other than specified  
are used.  
• Connect the speaker cables so they do not stick out of the speaker  
terminals. The protection circuit may be activated if the wires  
touch the rear panel or if the + and – sides touch each other  
(vpage 6 “Protection circuit”).  
• Never touch the speaker terminals while the power supply is  
connected. Doing so could result in electric shock.  
• When you connect optional speakers (SC-N7) to this unit, you can  
perform the filter setting for optimal sound quality output (vpage 35  
“Using an optimizing filter”).

Protection circuit  
• Select the connector to use and connect the device.  
• To listen to TV audio through this device, use the optical digital  
connection.  
The protection circuit is be activated in the following situations:  
• If the speaker cable wire touches the rear panel or screws or if the  
speaker cable wire touches the speaker cable’s + and – sides are  
touching  
• If the surrounding temperature is extremely high  
• If the inside of the amplifier gets hot to extended use at a high  
output  
If this happens, unplug the power cord, then check the connections  
of the speaker cables and input cables. If the unit becomes very hot,  
wait for it to cool off and improve the ventilation around it. After doing  
this, plug the power cord back in.  
If the protection circuit is activated even though there are no problems  
with the ventilation around the unit or in connections, the unit may  
be damaged. Turn off the power and then contact a DENON service  
center.

• Do not connect two FM antennas simultaneously.  
• Even if an external AM antenna is used, do not disconnect the AM  
loop antenna.  
• Make sure the AM loop antenna lead terminals do not touch metal  
parts of the panel.  
• If the signal has noise interference, connect the ground terminal  
(GND) to reduce noise.  
• If you are unable to receive a good broadcast signal, we recommend  
installing an outdoor antenna. For details, inquire at the retail store  
where you purchased the unit.
