Before Installation

Checking the Supplied Accessories

This section explains how to connect stereo components and speakers to the receiver, and how to connect the power supply.

General

• Be sure your hands are dry.

• Turn the power off to all components.

• Read the manuals supplied with the components you are going to connect.

Locations

• Install the receiver in a location that is level and protected from moisture.

• The temperature around the receiver must be between –5˚ and 35˚ C (23˚ and 95˚ F).

• Make sure there is good ventilation around the receiver. Poor ventilation could cause overheating and damage the receiver.

Handling the receiver

• Do not insert any metal object into the receiver.

• Do not disassemble the receiver or remove screws, covers, or cabinet.

• Do not expose the receiver to rain or moisture.

Check to be sure you have all of the following items, which are supplied with the receiver. The number in the parentheses indicates quantity of the pieces supplied.

• Remote Control (1)

• Batteries (2)

• AM (MW/LW) Loop Antenna (1)

• FM Antenna (1)

If anything is missing, contact your dealer immediately.

A Using the Supplied FM Antenna

The FM antenna provided can be connected to the FM 75ohm COAXIAL terminal as temporary measure.

B Using the Standard Type Connector (Not Supplied)

A standard type connector (IEC or DIN45325) should be connected to the FM 75-ohm COAXIAL terminal.

Note: Make sure the antenna conductors do not touch any

other terminals, connecting cords or power cord. This could cause poor reception.

Extend the supplied FM antenna horizontally.

If reception is poor, connect an outdoor FM antenna.

Before attaching a 75-ohm coaxial cable (the kind with a round wire going to the outdoor FM antenna), disconnect the supplied FM antenna.

Connecting the Speakers

English

Connecting the front speakers

You can connect the following speakers:

• Two sets of front speakers to produce normal stereo sound

• One set of rear speakers to enjoy the surround effect

• One center speaker to produce more effective surround effect (to make human voices outstanding)

• One subwoofer to enhance the bass

For each speaker (except for subwoofer), connect one end of the speaker signal cable (not supplied) to the speaker terminal on the rear panel and the other end to the speaker. (For connecting a subwoofer, see page 7.)

1. Open each terminal.

2. Insert the end of the speaker signal cable as shown (be sure to remove the insulation at the end of each wire first).

3. Close the terminals to clamp the speaker signal cables firmly in place.

4. Connect the black (–) and red (+) terminals on the rear panel to the black (–) and red (+) terminals marked on the speakers.

CAUTION:

When connecting speakers, use speakers with the same SPEAKER IMPEDANCE indicated by the speaker terminals.

Connect the front speakers to the FRONT SPEAKERS terminals.

Connecting the rear and center speakers

Connect rear speakers to the REAR SPEAKERS terminals and a center speaker to the CENTER SPEAKER terminals.

Note:

When you connect rear speakers, make sure that both left and right speakers are connected; otherwise, no sound will come out of the rear speakers.

About the speaker impedance of the speakers

CAUTION:

When connecting speakers, use speakers with the same SPEAKER IMPEDANCE indicated by the speaker terminals.

Notes:

• The required speaker impedance of the front speakers does not differ depending on whether both the FRONT SPEAKERS 1 and FRONT SPEAKERS 2 terminals are used or only one of them is used.

• The required speaker impedance of the front speakers differs depending on whether or not a center and/ or rear speakers are connected at the same time. Since there are four possible speaker connections with the receiver, check which one fits your case and use the speaker with the impedance described below.

English

CASE 1 When you connect only front speakers

Front Speaker

Use front speakers with 4 — 16 ohm impedance.

CASE 3 When you connect front and rear speakers

CASE 2 When you connect front speakers and a center

speaker

Connecting Audio Components for the COMPU LINK-3 Remote Control System

The COMPU LINK-3 remote control system allows you to control other JVC audio components from the receiver or vice versa. To use this system, connect your JVC audio components and the receiver with the cable (monaural mini-plug) supplied with those components.

If your audio component has two COMPU LINK-3 SYNCHRO jacks, you can use either one. If it has only one COMPU LINK-3 SYNCHRO jack, connect it so that it is the last item in the series of components (for example, the turntable and the CD player in the diagram below).

Notes:

• The COMPU LINK-3 remote control system is the upgraded version of the COMPU LINK-1 and COMPU LINK-2. Even if your component has the COMPU LINK-1 or COMPU LINK-2 jacks, you can still connect it in the COMPU LINK-3 remote control system, but some functions may not work correctly.

• For more information about the COMPU LINK-3 (-1 and -2) remote control system, see page 31.
