14. Outdoor Antenna Grounding – If an out-  
side antenna or cable system is connected  
to the appliance, be sure the antenna or  
cable system is grounded so as to provide  
some protection against voltage surges  
and built-up static charges. Article 810 of  
the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA  
70, provides information with regard to  
proper grounding of the mast and sup-  
porting structure, grounding of the lead-  
in wire to an antenna-discharge unit, size  
of grounding conductors, location of  
antenna-discharge unit, connection to  
grounding electrodes, and requirements  
for the grounding electrode. See Figure 1.  
15. Lightning – For added protection for the  
appliance 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 appliance due to lightning and  
power-line surges.  
16. 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.  
17. Overloading – Do not overload wall out-  
lets, extension cords, or integral conve-  
nience receptacles as this can result in a  
risk of fire or electric shock.  
20. Damage Requiring Service – Unplug the  
appliance form the wall outlet and refer  
servicing to qualified service personnel  
under the following conditions:  
A. When the power-supply cord or plug is  
damaged,  
B. If liquid has been spilled, or objects  
have fallen into the appliance,  
C. If the appliance has been exposed to  
rain or water,  
D. If the appliance does not operate nor-  
mally by following the operating  
instructions. Adjust only those con-  
trols that are covered by the operating  
instructions as an improper adjustment  
of other controls may result in damage  
and will often require extensive work  
by a qualified technician to restore the  
appliance to its normal operation,  
E. If the appliance has been dropped or  
damaged in any way, and  
F. When the appliance exhibits a distinct  
change in performance – this indicates  
a need for service.  
21. Replacement Parts – When replacement  
parts are required, be sure the service  
technician has used replacement parts  
specified by the manufacturer or have the  
same characteristics as the original part.  
Unauthorized substitutions may result in  
fire, electric shock, or other hazards.  
22. Safety Check – Upon completion of any  
service or repairs to the appliance, ask the  
service technician to perform safety  
checks to determine that the appliance is  
in proper operation condition.  
18. Object and Liquid Entry – Never push  
objects of any kind into the appliance  
through openings as they may touch dan-  
gerous voltage points or short-out parts  
that could result in a fire or electric shock.  
Never spill liquid of any kind on the appli-  
ance.  
19. Servicing – Do not attempt to service the  
appliance yourself as opening or remov-  
ing covers may expose you to dangerous  
voltage or other hazards. Refer all servic-  
ing to qualified service personnel.  
23. Wall or Ceiling Mounting – The appliance  
should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only  
as recommended by the manufacturer.  
24. Heat – The appliance should be situated  
away from heat sources such as radiators,  
heat registers, stoves, or other appliances  
(including amplifiers) that produce heat.

Precautions  
1. Warranty Claim  
For British model  
You can find the serial number on the rear  
panel of this unit. In case of warranty claim,  
please report this number.  
Replacement and mounting of an AC plug  
on the power supply cord of this unit should  
be performed only by qualified service per-  
sonnel.  
2. Recording Copyright  
Recording of copyrighted material for other  
than personal use is illegal without permis-  
sion of the copyright holder.  
IMPORTANT  
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in  
accordance with the following code:  
Blue : Neutral  
3. AC Fuse  
Brown : Live  
The fuse is located inside the chassis and is  
not user-serviceable. If power does not come  
on, contact your Onkyo authorized service  
station.  
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead  
of this apparatus may not correspond with  
the coloured markings identifying the termi-  
nals in your plug, proceed as follows:  
The wire which is coloured blue must be con-  
nected to the terminal which is marked with  
the letter N or coloured black.  
The wire which is coloured brown must be  
connected to the terminal which is marked  
with the letter L or coloured red.  
4. Care  
From time to time you should wipe the front  
and rear panels and the cabinet with a soft  
cloth. For heavier dirt, dampen a soft cloth in  
a weak solution of mild detergent and  
water, wring it out dry, and wipe off the dirt.  
Following this, dry immediately with a clean  
cloth. Do not use rough material, thinners,  
alcohol or other chemical solvents or cloths  
since these could damage the finish or  
remove the panel lettering.  
IMPORTANT  
A 5 ampere fuse is fitted in this plug. Should  
the fuse need to be replaced, please ensure  
that the replacement fuse has a rating of 5  
amperes and that it is approved by ASTA or  
BSI to BS1362. Check for the ASTA mark or  
the BSI mark on the body of the fuse.  
IF THE FITTED MOULDED PLUG IS UNSUIT-  
ABLE FOR THE SOCKET OUTLET IN YOUR  
HOME THEN THE FUSE SHOULD BE  
REMOVED AND THE PLUG CUT OFF AND DIS-  
POSED OF SAFELY. THERE IS A DANGER OF  
SEVERE ELECTRICAL SHOCK IF THE CUT OFF  
PLUG IS INSERTED INTO ANY 13 AMPERE  
SOCKET.  
5. Power  
WARNING  
BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE UNIT FOR THE  
FIRST TIME, READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION  
CAREFULLY.  
The voltage of the available power supply  
differs according to country or region. Be  
sure that the power supply voltage of the  
area where this unit will be used meets the  
required voltage (e.g., AC 230 V, 50 Hz or AC  
120 V, 60 Hz) written on the rear panel.  
Setting the STANDBY button to standby does  
not shut off the power completely. So the  
power cord should be removed from the AC  
outlet when the unit is not used for a pro-  
longed time.  
If in any doubt, please consult a qualified  
electrician.

device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.  
These limits are designed to provide reason-  
able protection against harmful interference  
in a residential installation. This equipment  
generates, uses and can radiate radio fre-  
quency energy and, if not installed and used  
in accordance with the instructions, may  
cause harmful interference to radio commu-  
nications. However, there is no guarantee  
that interference will not occur in a particu-  
lar installation. If this equipment does cause  
harmful interference to radio or television  
reception, which can be determined by turn-  
ing the equipment off and on, the user is  
encouraged to try to correct the interference  
by one or more of the following measures:  
ÉLECTRIQUES, INTRODUIRE LA LAME LA  
PLUS LARGE DE LA FICHE DANS LA BORNE  
CORRESPONDANTE DE LA PRISE ET POUSSER  
JUSQU’AU FOND.  
Memory Preservation  
Reorient or relocate the receiving  
antenna.  
Increase the separation between the  
equipment and receiver.  
Connect the equipment into an outlet on  
a circuit different from that to which the  
receiver is connected.  
Consult the dealer or an experienced  
radio/TV technician for help.  
This unit does not require memory preserva-  
tion batteries. A built-in memory power back-  
up system preserves the contents of the mem-  
ory during power failures and even when the  
unit is unplugged. The unit must be plugged  
in order to charge the back-up system.  
The memory preservation period after the  
unit has been unplugged varies depending  
on climate and placement of the unit. 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 is shorter when the unit is exposed to  
a highly humid climate.

Connecting speaker systems  
Connecting left and right speakers  
Before connecting  
The load impedance of each speaker must be at least 4 ohms.  
Do not use unnecessarily long or extremely thin speaker cords. Otherwise, the DC resis-  
tance of the speaker cords may become too high, lowering the damping factor and causing  
the sound quality to deteriorate.  
Do not connect the speaker cord to the L and R connectors at the same time and do not  
connect two or more speakers to the same speaker connectors.

Notes  
Carefully follow the polarity diagram  
(positive + and negative - symbols)  
inside the battery compartment.  
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 which 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 be pressed by mis-  
take 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 any obstacle between the  
remote controller and the remote control  
sensor, the remote controller will not  
operate.  
3 After batteries are installed and  
seated correctly, replace the compart-  
ment cover.  
Notes  
Do not mix new batteries with old batter-  
ies or different kinds of batteries.  
To avoid corrosion, remove the batteries  
if the remote controller is not to be used  
for a long time.  
Remove dead batteries immediately to  
avoid damage from corrosion. If the  
remote controller doesn’t operate  
smoothly, replace both the batteries at  
the same time.  
The life of the batteries supplied is about  
six months but this will vary depending  
on usage.

Setting the Clock  
The ”ACCUCLOCK“ features an automatic  
clock adjusting function automatically sets  
the clock time by means of RDS broadcast  
signals.  
It may take about 5 minutes for the time  
information to be received and displayed  
after you plug in the power cord.  
6. After the clock is initially set, it will be  
adjusted periodically when the R-805X is  
in Standby mode (all input source indica-  
tors are turned off) or in ENERGY SAVE  
mode (the ENERGY SAVE indicator is lit).  
The “ACCUCLOCK” feature is available  
only on the European model, and only in  
areas where RDS broadcasts are available.  
Adjust the clock as explained in “Setting  
using U.S. or Canadian models or if you  
are using the unit in the area where RDS  
broadcasts are unavailable.  
Notes on using the “ACCUCLOCK” function:  
Make sure that your FM antenna has  
been properly connected as explained on  
you install an outdoor FM antenna since  
the FM indoor antenna may not receive  
RDS broadcasts well enough to allow  
ACCUCLOCK to function properly.  
Setting the clock automatically  
(European models only)  
The clock will display the time in a 24  
hour cycle. For example, 5:30 pm will be  
displayed as “17:30”. (You can select a 12  
hour cycle display setting. For more infor-  
ACCUCLOCK starts operating as soon as the  
power cord is plugged in. It then searches for  
an RDS broadcasting station which regularly  
sends time signals and waits to receive such  
time information. Do not operate any but-  
tons until the clock setting is complete. The  
R-805X retains the clock setting until you  
unplug the power cord.  
If RDS signals cannot be received, no RDS  
station will be found.  
Or if an RDS signal is present but the sig-  
nal is not strong enough to allow the  
ACCUCLOCK to automatically set the  
time, “- -:- -” will lit on the display as  
shown below. If this occurs, set the clock  
The following steps describe how to set the  
clock automatically:  
1. Plug in the power cord.

flashes slowly  
2. Once an RDS station that sends time sig-  
nals is detected, the indicator flashes  
more rapidly.  
Adjust the clock manually.  
You may wish to adjust the clock manually  
because the time information may differ  
depending on the RDS station detected. If  
so, follow the manual clock adjustment  
flashes rapidly  
3. Once the time signal is received from the  
RDS station, “CLOCK ADJUSTED” will  
scroll on the display.  
There may be cases in which you can lis-  
ten to radio broadcasts but cannot use  
the ACCUCLOCK function.  
4. The received time information (the day of  
the week and the time) appears.  
Once activated, ACCUCLOCK will remem-  
ber the RDS station it uses for several weeks  
even if the power cord of this unit is  
unplugged. If you move outside the service  
area of the memorized RDS station and  
find out that ACCUCLOCK is not function-  
ing, see “Confirming/changing the RDS Sta-  
change the memorized RDS station.

RDS reception is available only on the Euro-  
pean model, and only in areas where RDS  
broadcasts are available.  
If the current station you are listening to is  
not an RDS station, only the frequency of the  
station and the characters (see page 33)  
appear. (If no characters have been entered,  
only the frequency information will appear.)  
What is RDS?  
Many FM stations now transmit RDS signals  
which contain additional information. RDS  
provides you with various services so that  
you can choose a station broadcasting your  
favorite categories of music or other infor-  
mation. The information below is available  
through the R-805X.  
When RT is received, it can sometimes take  
between a few seconds and 15 seconds  
(more or less) to display.  
Sometimes the following messages will be  
shown on the display.  
WAIT: This message indicates that it requires  
more time to receive the RT information.  
When the information is received, the char-  
acters will scroll across the display.  
PS: Program Service Name  
RT: Radio Text  
Note  
NO TEXT: This message appears for three  
seconds and indicates that even though an  
RDS station is being received, the signal  
does not contain RT information.  
If radio signals are weak, RDS may not be  
received.  
Displaying Radio Text (RT)  
Radio Text can be displayed as follows.  
Note  
If the station you are listening to is not an  
RDS station, no Radio Text will be displayed.
