� Before you plug in the DTR-8.3, confirm that all connections have been made properly. � Turning on the power may cause a momentary power surge, which might interfere with other electrical equipment on the same circuit, such as computers. If this happens, use a wall outlet on a different circuit.

Memory preservation The DTR-8.3 does not require memory preservation batteries. A built-in memory backup system preserves the contents of memory (e.g., speaker settings and surround settings) during power failures and even when the unit is unplugged. The unit must be plugged in order to charge the back-up system. The length of time that the memory will be preserved will vary depending on the ambient climate. On the average, memory contents are protected over a period of a few weeks after the last time the unit has been unplugged. This period may be shorter when the unit is exposed to a highly humid climate.

If you connected an MD recorder to the TAPE jack on the DTR-8.3, you can have �MD� appear when the TAPE source button is pressed. Changing the display: Press and hold down the TAPE source button until the display changes from TAPE to MD (approx. 3 seconds).
