BEFORE USING

Pay attention to the following before using this unit:

• Moving the set

To prevent short circuits or damaged wires in the connection cords, always unplug the power supply cord and disconnect the connection cords between all other audio components when moving the set.

• Before turning the power operation switch on

Check once again that all connections are proper and that there are not problems with the connection cords. Always set the power operation switch to the standby position before connecting and disconnecting connection cords.

• Store this instructions in a safe place

After reading, store this instructions along with the warranty in a safe place.

• Note that the illustrations in this instructions

may differ from the actual set for explanation purposes.

• V. AUX terminal

The AVR-1705’s front panel is equipped with a V. AUX terminal. Remove the cap covering the terminal when you want to use it.

Noise or disturbance of the picture may be generated if this unit or any other electronic equipment using microprocessors is used near a tuner or TV. If this happens, take the following steps:

• Install this unit as far as possible from the tuner or TV.

• Set the antenna wires from the tuner or TV away from this unit’s power supply cord and input/output connection cords.

• Noise or disturbance tends to occur particularly when using indoor antennas or 300 Ω/ohms feeder wires. We recommend using outdoor antennas

and 75 Ω/ohms coaxial cables.

For heat dispersal, leave at least 10 cm of space between the top, back and sides of this unit and the wall or other components.

CAUTIONS ON INSTALLATION

• Switching the input function when input jacks are not connected

A clicking noise may be produced if the input function is switched when nothing is connected to the input jacks. If this happens, either turn down the MASTER VOLUME control or connect components to the input jacks.

• Muting of PRE OUT jack, HEADPHONE jack and

SPEAKER terminals

The PRE OUT jack, HEADPHONE jack and SPEAKER terminals include a muting circuit. Because of this, the output signals are greatly reduced for several

seconds after the power operation switch is turned on or input function, surround mode or any other setup is changed. If the volume is turned up during this time, the output will be very high after the muting circuit stops functioning. Always wait until the muting circuit turns off before adjusting the volume.

• Whenever the unit is in the STANDBY state, the

apparatus is still connected on AC line voltage. Please be sure to turn the power off (

£ off) when

you leave home for, say, a vacation.

Speaker Impedance

• When speaker systems A and B are use separately, speakers with an impedance of 6 to 16 Ω/ohms can be connected for use as front speakers.

• Be careful when using two pairs of front speakers (A + B) at the same time, since use of speakers with an impedance of 12 to 16 Ω/ohms.

• Speakers with an impedance of 6 to 16 Ω/ohms can be connected for use as center and surround and surround back speakers.

• The protector circuit may be activated if the set is played for long periods of time at high volumes when speakers with an impedance lower than the specified impedance are connected.

NOTE: NEVER touch the speaker terminals when the power is on. Doing so could result in electric shocks.

Connecting the speaker cords

1. Loosen by turning counterclockwise.

2. Insert the cord. 3. Tighten by turning clockwise.

Speaker system connections

• Connect the speaker terminals with the speakers making sure that like polarities are matched (

≈ with

≈ , √ with √ ). Mismatching of polarities will result

in weak central sound, unclear orientation of the various instruments, and the sense of direction of the stereo being impaired.

• When making connections, take care that none of the individual conductors of the speaker cord come in contact with adjacent terminals, with other speaker cord conductors, or with the rear panel.

Protector circuit

• This unit is equipped with a high-speed protection circuit. The purpose of this circuit is to protect the

speakers under circumstances such as when the output of the power amplifier is inadvertently shortcircuited and a large current flows, when the temperature surrounding the unit becomes unusually high, or when the unit is used at high output over a long period which results in an extreme temperature rise. When the protection circuit is activated, the speaker output is cut off and the power supply indicator LED flashes. Should this occur, please follow these steps: be sure to switch off the power of this unit, check whether there are any faults with the wiring of the speaker cables or input cables, and wait for the unit to cool down if it is very hot. Improve the ventilation condition around the unit and switch the power back on. If the protection circuit is activated again even though there are no problems with the wiring or the ventilation around the unit, switch off the power and contact a DENON service center.

Note on speaker impedance

• The protector circuit may be activated if the set is played for long periods of time at high volumes when

speakers with an impedance lower than the specified impedance (for example speakers with an impedance of lower than 4 Ω/ohms) are connected. If the protector circuit is activated, the speaker output is cut off. Turn off the set’s power, wait for the set to cool down, improve the ventilation around the set, then turn the power back on.

NOTES: — Assignment of low frequency signal range —

• The signals produced from the subwoofer channel are LFE signals (during playback of Dolby Digital or DTS signals) and the low frequency signal range of channels set to “SMALL” in the setup. The low frequency signal range of channels set to “LARGE” are produced from those channels.

— Crossover Frequency —

• When “Subwoofer” is set to “Yes” at the “Speaker Configuration Setting”, set the frequency (Hz) below which the bass sound of the various speakers is to be output from the subwoofer (the crossover frequency).

• For speakers set to “Small”, sound with a frequency below the crossover frequency is cut, and the cut bass sound is output from the subwoofer instead. NOTE: For ordinary speaker systems, we recommend setting the crossover frequency to 80 Hz. When

using small speakers, however, setting the crossover frequency to a high frequency may improve frequency response for frequencies near the crossover frequency.

— Subwoofer mode —

• The subwoofer mode setting is only valid when “LARGE” is set for the front speakers and “YES” is set for the subwoofer in the “Speaker Configuration” settings (see pages 11, 12). If “SMALL” is set for the front speakers or “NO” is set for the subwoofer, the subwoofer mode setting does not affect playback of low frequency signal range.

• When the “+MAIN” playback mode is selected, the low frequency signal range of channels set to “LARGE” are produced simultaneously from those channels and the subwoofer channel. In this playback mode, the low frequency range expand more uniformly through the room, but depending on the size and shape of the room, interference may result in a decrease of the actual volume of the low frequency range.

• When the “NORM” playback mode is selected, the low frequency signal range of channels set to “LARGE” are only produced from those channels. In this playback mode there tends to be little interference of the low frequency range in the room.

•Try playing the music or movie source and select the playback mode providing the stronger low frequency range sound.
