the transmit indicator does not flash or is dim.

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.

You can connect presence speakers (PL/PR) that output

front effect sounds to this unit. With CINEMA DSP sound

field programs (see page 27) and their CINEMA DSP 3D

functions, a sound with a richer and more spacial presence

can be created. You can adjust the vertical position of

Connecting the speaker cable

Caution

INTRODUCTION

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 your video monitor is a CRT, use magnetically shielded speakers. If images on the monitor are still distorted even

PREPARATION

when you use the magnetically shielded speakers, place the speakers away from the monitor.

Use speakers with an impedance of 6-ohm or larger. Set speaker impedance in “ADVANCED SETUP” before

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

“6ΩMIN” (see page 58).
