Important Safety Instructions
1. Read these instructions.
2. Keep these instructions.
3. Heed all warnings.
4. Follow all instructions.
5. Do not use this apparatus near water.
6. Clean only with dry cloth.
7. Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in
accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
8. Do not install near any heat sources such as radia-
tors, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus
(including amplifiers) that produce heat.
9. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or
grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two
blades with one wider than the other. A grounding
type plug has two blades and a third grounding
prong. The wide blade or the third prong are pro-
vided for your safety. If the provided plug does not
fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for
replacement of the obsolete outlet.
10. Protect the power cord from being walked on or
pinched particularly at plugs, convenience recepta-
cles, and the point where they exit from the appara-
tus.
11. Only use attachments/accessories specified by the
manufacturer.
12. Use only with the cart, stand,
tripod, bracket, or table spec-
ified by the manufacturer, or
sold
with
the
apparatus.
When a cart is used, use cau-
tion when moving the cart/
apparatus
combination
to
avoid injury from tip-over.
13. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or
when unused for long periods of time.
14. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
Servicing is required when the apparatus has been
damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or
plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects
have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has
been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate
normally, or has been dropped.
15. Damage Requiring Service
Unplug the apparatus from 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 apparatus,
C. If the apparatus has been exposed to rain or
water,
D. If the apparatus does not operate normally by
following the operating instructions. Adjust only
those controls 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 apparatus to its normal operation,
E. If the apparatus has been dropped or damaged in
any way, and
F. When the apparatus exhibits a distinct change in
performance this indicates a need for service.
16. Object and Liquid Entry
Never push objects of any kind into the apparatus
through openings as they may touch dangerous volt-
age points or short-out parts that could result in a
fire or electric shock.
The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or
splashing and no objects filled with liquids, such as
vases shall be placed on the apparatus.
Don't put candles or other burning objects on top of
this unit.
17. Batteries
Always consider the environmental issues and fol-
low local regulations when disposing of batteries.
18. If you install the apparatus in a built-in installation,
such as a bookcase or rack, ensure that there is ade-
quate ventilation.
Leave 20 cm (8") of free space at the top and sides
and 10 cm (4") at the rear. The rear edge of the shelf
or board above the apparatus shall be set 10 cm (4")
away from the rear panel or wall, creating a flue-like
gap for warm air to escape.
WARNING:
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC
SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPARATUS
TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.
CAUTION:
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK,
DO NOT REMOVE COVER (OR BACK). NO
USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE. REFER

for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable
ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building,
as close to the point of cable entry as practical.

operate the equipment.
NOTE:
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits
for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment
generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is

If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
· 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.

serviceable. If you cannot turn on the HT-R8230, contact your
Onkyo dealer.
3. Care--Occasionally you should dust the HT-R8230 all over
with a soft cloth. For stubborn stains, use a soft cloth
dampened with a weak solution of mild detergent and water.
Dry the HT-R8230 immediately afterwards with a clean cloth.
Don't use abrasive cloths, thinners, alcohol, or other chemical
solvents, because they may damage the finish or remove the

WARNING
BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE UNIT FOR THE FIRST TIME,
READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY.
AC outlet voltages vary from country to country. Make sure that
the voltage in your area meets the voltage requirements printed on
the HT-R8230's rear panel (e.g., AC 230 V, 50 Hz or AC 120 V,
60 Hz).
Setting the [STANDBY/ON] switch to STANDBY does not fully
shutdown the HT-R8230. If you do not intend to use the HT-
R8230 for an extended period, remove the power cord from the
AC outlet.

2 Insert the two supplied batteries (AA/R6) in
accordance with the polarity diagram inside the
battery compartment.
3 Close the battery compartment.
Notes
· The supplied batteries should last for about six months,
although this will vary with usage.
· If the remote controller doesn't work reliably, try replacing
both batteries.
· Don't mix new and old batteries, or different types of batteries.
· If you intend not to use the remote controller for a long time,
remove the batteries to prevent possible leakage and corrosion.
· Flat batteries should be removed as soon as possible to prevent
possible leakage and corrosion.
Using the Remote Controller
To use the remote controller, point it at the HT-R8230's remote
control sensor, as shown below. The HT-R8230's STANDBY
indicator flashes while a signal is being received from the remote
controller.
Notes
· The remote controller may not work reliably if the HT-R8230
is subjected to bright light, such as direct sunlight or inverter-
type fluorescent lights. Keep this in mind when installing the
HT-R8230.
· If another remote controller of the same type is used in the same
room, or the HT-R8230 is installed close to equipment that uses
infrared rays, the remote controller may not work reliably.
· Don't put anything, such as a book, on the remote controller,
because the buttons may be pressed inadvertently, thereby
draining the batteries.
· The remote controller may not work reliably if the HT-R8230
is installed in a rack behind colored glass doors. Keep this in
mind when installing the HT-R8230.
· The remote controller will not work if there's an obstacle
between it and the HT-R8230's remote control sensor.
Installing the Batteries
1 Open the battery compartment, as shown.
