Do not use old batteries together with new ones.

This may shorten the life of the new batteries or cause old batteries

to leak.

Do not use different types of batteries (such as alkaline and

manganese batteries) together. Specification of batteries may be

different even though they look the same.

If you find leaking batteries, discard the batteries immediately,

taking care not to touch the leaked material. If the leaked material

comes into contact with your skin or gets into your eyes or mouth,

rinse it away immediately and consult a doctor. Clean the battery

compartment thoroughly before installing new batteries.

Dispose of the old batteries correctly in accordance with your local

regulations.

If the remote control is without batteries for more than 2 minutes,

or if exhausted batteries remain in the remote control, the contents

of the memory may be cleared. In such a case, install new batteries

and set the remote control code.

Connections

Caution

A speaker cable is a pair of insulated cables running side by side in general. One of the cables is colored differently

or striped to indicate a polarity. Connect one end of the colored/striped cable to the “+” (red) terminal of this unit

and the other end to that of your speaker, and connect one end of the other cable to the “–” (black) terminal of this

unit and the other end to that of your speaker.

Before connecting the speakers, be sure to disconnect the power cable.

Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other or any metal part of this unit. This could damage this unit and/or

speakers. If the circuit shorts out, “CHECK SP WIRES!” appears on the front panel display when this unit is turned

on.

If images on the monitor (CRT) are distorted, place the speakers away from the video monitor. If it does not work,

use magnetically shielded speakers.

Use speakers with an impedance of 6-ohm or larger. Set speaker impedance in the advanced setup menu before

connecting the speakers (page 57). You can also use 4-ohm speakers as the front speakers when you set “SP IMP.” to

“6MIN”.

Connecting a TV monitor or projector

According to the types of video input jacks available on your video monitor (such as a TV or projector), choose one of

the connection methods as shown below. When you connect video players such as a DVD player to this unit with an

HDMI connection, connect your video monitor to this unit with an HDMI connection.

Note

Make sure that this unit and other components are unplugged from the AC wall outlets.

To output sound of a TV from this unit, make connection

between one of the AV 1-6 jacks of this unit and an audio

output jack of the TV.

If the TV supports an optical digital output, we

recommend that you use the AV 1 jack. Connecting to the

AV 1 jack allows you to switch an input source to the AV 1

jack with a just a single key operation using the SCENE

function (page 23).

About audio/video output terminals

Among the analog audio and analog video signals input to this unit via input terminals, the audio/video signals of the

selected input sources are output from the AV OUT jacks and AUDIO OUT jacks. An HDMI input signal,

output characteristics of your speakers based on speaker position, speaker performance, and the acoustic characteristics

of the room. We recommend that you first adjust the output characteristics with the YPAO when you use this unit.
