■ Unpacking
After unpacking, immediately report any damage to the
delivering carrier or dealer. Keep the shipping cartons.
For a description and a diagram of accessory equip-
ment included with the IC-R9500, see ‘Supplied ac-
cessories’ on p. iii of this manual.
■ Selecting a location
Select a location for the receiver that allows adequate
air circulation and access to the front and rear panels.
Do not place in areas subject to extreme heat, cold, or
vibrations, or near TV sets, radios and other electro-
magnetic sources.
■ Grounding
To prevent electrical shock, television interference
(TVI), broadcast interference (BCI) and other prob-
lems, ground the receiver through the GROUND ter-
minal on the rear panel.
For best results, connect a heavy gauge wire or strap
to a long earth-sunk copper rod. Make the distance be-
tween the [GND] terminal and ground as short as pos-
sible.
R WARNING: NEVER connect the [GND]
terminal to a gas or electric pipe, since the connec-
tion could cause an explosion or electric shock.
