Water and moisture — Do not use this unit near water, such
as near a bathtub, washbowl, swimming pool, or the like.
Heat — Do not use this unit near sources of heat, including
heating vents, stoves, or other appliances that generate heat.
It also should not be placed in temperatures leSSthan 5°C
(41“F) or greater than 35°C (95”F).
Mounting surface — Place the unit on a flat, even surface.
Ventilation — The unit should be situated with adequate
space around it so that proper heat ventilation is assured,
Allow 10 cm (4 in.) clearance from the rear and the top of the
unit, and 5 cm (2 in.) from each side,
- Do not place the unit on a bed, rug, or similar surface that
may block the ventilation openings,
- Do not install the unit in a bookcase, cabinet, or airtight rack
where ventilation may be impeded.
Objects and liquid entry — Take care that objects or liquids
do not get inside the unit through the ventilation openings,
Carts and stands —When placed
or mounted on a stand or cart, the
unit should be moved with care.
Quick stops, excessive force, and

unit or cart to overturn or fall,
Condensation — Moisture may form on the CD pickup lens
when:
- The unit is moved from a cold spot to a warm spot
- The heating system has just been turned on
- The unit is used in a very humid room
- The unit is cooled by an air conditioner
When this unit has condensation inside, it may not function
normally, Should this occur, leave the unit for a few hours,
then try to operate again.
Wall or ceiling mounting —The unit should not be mounted
on a wall or ceiling, unless specified in the Operating
Instructions,

Power sources — Connect this unit only to power sources
specified in the Operating Instructions, and as marked on the
unit.
polarization — ASa safety feature, some units are equipped
with polarized AC power plugs which can only be inserted
one way into a power outlet. If it is di~cult or impossible to
insert the AC power plug into an outlet, turn the plug over and
try again. If it still does not easily insert into the outlet, please
call a qualified service technician to service or replace the
outlet, To avoid defeating the safety feature of the polarized
plug, do not force it into a power outlet.
AC power cord
When disconnecting the AC power cord, pull it out by the
AC power plug. Do not pull the cord itself.
- Never handle the AC power plug with wet hands, as this
could result in fire or shock.
Power cords should be firmly secured to avoid being severely
bent, pinched, or walked upon. Pay particular attention to
the cord from the unit to the power outlet.
- Avoid overloading AC power plugs and extension cords
beyond their capacity, as this could result in fire or shock.
2 ENGLISH

Extension cord — To help prevent electric shock, do not use
a polarized AC power plug with an extension cord, receptacle,
or other outlet unless the polarized plug can be completely
inserted to prevent exposure of the blades of the plug.
When not in use — Unplug the AC power cord from the power
outlet if the unit will not be used for several months or more.
When the cord is plugged in, a small amount of current
continues to flow to the unit, even when the power is turned
off.
Outdoor Antenna

Power lines —When connecting an outdoor antenna, make
sure it is located away from power lines.
Outdoor antenna grounding — Be sure the antenna system
is properly grounded to provide protection against unexpected
voltage surges or static electricity build-up. Article 810 of the
National Electrical Code, ANS1/NFPA 70, provides information
on proper grounding of the mast, supporting structure, and
the lead-in wire to the antenna discharge unit, as well as the
size of the grounding unit, connection to grounding terminals,
and requirements for grounding terminals themselves.

POSITIONING THE SPEAKERS
To achieve the optimum effects obtainable with the DOLBY PRO
LOGIC system, it is important to position the speakers properly.
Refer to the following illustration to find out the best location in
your room.
CX-NMA945 =
u
O Front speakere
@ Center speaker
Position this at the center of the two front speakers and also,
if a TV set is connected, on or below the set.
@ Surround speakers
Place the surround speakers directlyto the side of or slightly
behind the listening area. Align them horizontally, about 1
meter (3,2 feet) above ear height.
m
● No sound is heard from the center and surround speakers when
the DOLBY PRO LOGIC, the SURROUND system and the 5.1
CH (page 31) are set to off.
● The center speaker sounds when the DOLBY PRO LOGIC or
the 5.1 CH (page 31) is set to on,
To mount the surround speakers on the wall
Mount each speaker on a suet that can hold its weiaht
Inserting batteries
Detach the battery cover on the rear of the remote control and
insert two R6 (size AA) batteries.
R6(’AA)
When to replace the batteries
The maximum operational distance between the remote control
and the sensor on the main unit should be approximately 5 meters
(16 feet). When this distance decreases, replace the batteries
with new ones,
Using the remote control
The instructions in this manual refer mainly to the buttons on the
main unit. Buttons on the remote control with the same names
as those on the main unit can be used as well.
E/+ ➤ PRESET on the remote control
The function is the same as that of 4P on the main unit,
m
* If the remote control is not going to be used for an extended
period of time, remove the batteries to prevent possible
electrolyte leakage.
● The remote control may not operate correctly when:
- The line of sight between the remote control and the remote
sensor inside the display window is exposed to intense light,
such as direct sunlight
- Other remote controls are used nearby (those of a television,
etc.)

To provide reinforcement for the ultra-low frequencies, in addition
to the Left/Right 2-channel amplifier used to reproduce mid-to-
high-range frequencies, this system incorporates a second L/R
2-channel amplifier just for reproduction of ultra-low frequencies
— making the front speakers, in effect, a 4-channel amplifier
system. Therefore, this has a total of 7-channel amplifiers in the
Multi Amplifire System (4-channeI amplifiers inthe front speakers
+ a L/R 2-channel amplifire in the surround speakers + a 1-
channel amplifier in the center speaker). By utilizing discrete
amplifiers for mid to-high-frequencies and Iowfrequencies, high-
quality sonic reproduction that is virtually free from distortion can
be realized.
This Multi Amplifier System, which utilizes independent circuitry
for the different frequency ranges, enables superb sonic
reproduction free from distortion,
The built-in subwoofer System has a separate subwoofer cavity
area that is part of the loudspeaker cabinet structure, which acts
as a sonic filter to cut distortion components. (Inthe Multi Amplifier
System, the ultra-low frequency signals transmitted from their
own independent amplifier are reproduced in this area,) This
separate construction gives a clear, rich definition to bass
reproduction and it can realize clear, well-defined mid-to-high
frequency signals.
And AIWAS built-in subwoofer system incorporates a subwoofer
capable of powerful, satisfying bass performance with true stereo
separation.
