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 cord and disconnect the connection cords between all other audio components when moving the set.
Before turning the power switch on
Check once again that all connections are proper and that there are not problems with the connection cords. Always set the power 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-2105’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 cord and input/output connection cords.
• Noise or disturbance tends to occur particularly when using indoor antennas or 300 /ohms feeder wires. We recommend using outdoor antennas
and 75 /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 jacks, HEADPHONE jack and
SPEAKER terminals
The PRE OUT jacks, HEADPHONE jack and SPEAKER terminals include a muting circuit.
Because of this, the output signals are greatly reduced for several seconds after the power switch is turned on or input function, surround mode or any other-set-up 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.

Connecting a video camera component
• Connect the video camera component’s output jacks to this unit’s V. AUX INPUT jacks.
The V. AUX INPUT terminal is covered with a cap. Remove this cap in order to use the terminal. (See page 3 for instructions on removing the cap.)
Speaker Impedance
• When speaker systems A and B are use separately, speakers with an impedance of 6 to 16 /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 /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 terminals
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 /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.

Delay Time
This parameter is for optimizing the timing with which the audio signals are produced from the speakers and subwoofer according to the listening position.
NOTES:
• The on-screen display signals are output with priority to the S-VIDEO MONITOR OUT jack during playback of a video component. For example, if the TV monitor is connected to both the AVR-2105’s S-Video and video monitor output jacks and signals are input to the AVR-2105 from a video source (VDP, etc.) connected to both the S-Video and video input jacks, the on-screen display signals are output with priority to the S­Video monitor output. If you wish to output the signals to the video monitor output jack, do not connect a cord to the S-VIDEO MONITOR OUT jack. (For details, see page 18.)
• The AVR-2105’s on-screen display function is designed for use with high resolution monitor TVs, so it may be difficult to read small characters on TVs with small screens or low resolutions.
• The setup menu is not displayed when headphone are being used.

About the error message
These error screens will be displayed when performing the measurements of Auto Setup and the automatic measurements can not be completed because of the speaker arrangement, measurement environment, or other factors. Please check the following matters, reset the pertinent items, and measure again. When there is too much noise in the room, the speakers may not be detected properly. Should this happen, perform the measurements when the noise level is low, or switch off the power of the equipment that is producing the noise for the duration of the measurements.
q This screen will be displayed when the speakers
required for producing suitable reproduction have not been detected.
• The front L and front R speakers were not properly detected.
• Only one channel of the surround speakers was detected.
• Sound was output from the R channel when only one surround back speaker was connected.
• The surround back was detected, but the surround speaker was not detected.
