Explanation of Graphical Symbols
12 Grounding or Polarization — This product may be equipped with a
polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having one blade
wider than the other). This plug will fit into the power outlet only
one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug
fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still
fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet.
Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
13 Power-Cord Protection — Power-supply cords should be routed so
that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed
upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords at plugs,
convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the
product.
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an
equilateral triangle, is intended to alert you 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.
14 Lightning — For added protection for this product during a
lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long
periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the
antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the product
due to lightning and power-line surges.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is
intended to alert you to the presence of important
operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in
the literature accompanying the appliance.
15 Power Lines — An outside antenna system should not be located in
the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power
circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When
installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken
to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with
them might be fatal.
Read Instructions — All the safety and operating instructions
should be read before the product is operated.
Retain Instructions — The safety and operating instructions should
be retained for future reference.

SA-CD (Super Audio CD)
The SA-CD standard is based on Direct Stream Digital
(DSD) technology. This new direct-stream digital format
comprises a 1-bit system that has a digital sampling
frequency that is 64 times higher than that of
conventional audio CD.
There are three types of SA-CD discs: single-layer, duallayer and hybrid discs. Each type may contain two areas
of recorded information: a High Quality Stereo area and
a High Quality Multi-channel area.
– A single layer disc can contain both information areas.
– A dual layer disc can contain both information areas.
Double the information can be stored on the disc,
thanks to the second layer.
– A hybrid disc can contain both information areas, and
also a second, standard CD layer, making it playable on
standard CD players.
Recorded information may vary per area, as indicated in
the disc inlay. You can select areas before or during
playback while you are playing SA-CD via the remote
control or via the On-screen display on your TV.
