Before Installation

General precautions

• 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 and dust.

• The temperature around the receiver must be between –5˚C and 35˚C.

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

• Leave sufficient distance between the receiver and the TV.

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.

• Do not pull on the power cord to unplug the cord. When unplugging the cord, always grasp the plug so as not to damage the cord.

• When you are away on travel or otherwise for an extended period or time, remove the plug from the wall outlet. A small amount of power is always consumed while the power cord is connected to the wall outlet.

Putting batteries in the remote control

Before using the remote control, put two supplied batteries first.

Press and slide the battery cover on the back of the remote control.

Insert batteries.

Make sure to match the polarity: (+) to (+) and (–) to (–).

Replace the cover.

If the range or effectiveness of the remote control decreases, replace the batteries. Use two R6(SUM-3)/AA(15F) type dry-cell batteries.

• Supplied butteries are for initial setup. Replace for continued use.

CAUTION:

Follow these precautions to avoid leaking or cracking cells:

• Place batteries in the remote control so they match the polarity:

(+) to (+) and (–) to (–).

• Use the correct type of batteries. Batteries that look similar may

differ in voltage.

• Always replace both batteries at the same time.

• Do not expose batteries to heat or flame.

When using the remote control, aim the remote control directly at the remote sensor on the front panel.

Remote sensor

The receiver has a built-in cooling fan which operates while the receiver is turned on. Be sure to leave enough ventilation to obtain sufficient cooling effect.

CAUTION:

Do not connect the AC power plug to the wall outlet until all connections are completed.

Checking the supplied accessories

Check to be sure you have all of the following supplied accessories. If anything is missing, contact your dealer immediately.

• Remote control (× 1)

• Batteries (× 2)

• AM loop antenna (× 1)

• FM antenna (× 1)

• USB wireless antenna (× 1)

• USB wireless transmitter (Model number: QAL0708-001) (× 1)

• USB extension cable (60cm) (× 1)

•AC plug adaptor (× 1)

Setting the voltage selector

Before connections, always do the following first if necessary.

Select the correct voltage in VOLTAGE SELECTOR on the rear of the receiver by using a screw driver.

• Check to be sure if the voltage mark is set to the voltage for your area where this unit plugs in.

Connecting the FM and AM antennas

Do not connect the AC power plug to the wall outlet until all connections are completed.

AM loop antenna (supplied)

Snap the tabs on the loop into the slots of the base to assemble the AM loop antenna.

If FM reception is poor, connect an outdoor FM antenna (not supplied).

If AM reception is poor, connect an outdoor single vinyl-covered wire (not supplied).

AM antenna connection

Connect the AM loop antenna supplied to the AM LOOP terminals. Connect the white cord to the AM EXT terminal, and connect the black cord to the H terminal. Tu rn the loop until you have the best reception.

• If the reception is poor, connect an outdoor single vinyl-covered wire (not supplied) to the AM EXT terminal. Keep the AM loop antenna connected.

FM antenna connection

Connect the FM antenna supplied to the FM 75 Ω COAXIAL terminal as a temporary measure. Extend the supplied FM antenna horizontally.

• If the reception is poor, connect an outdoor FM antenna (not supplied). Before attaching a 75 Ω coaxial cable with a connector (IEC or DIN 45325), disconnect the supplied FM antenna.

FM antenna (supplied)

NOTES

• If the AM loop antenna wire is covered with vinyl, remove the vinyl while twisting it as shown on the right.

• Make sure the antenna conductors do not touch any other terminals, connecting cords and power cord. This could cause poor reception.

Insert the speaker cord.

•For each speaker, connect the (+) and (–) terminals on the rear panel to the (+) and (–) terminals marked on the speakers.

Turn the knob clockwise.

Open the terminal (1), then insert the speaker cord (2).

•For each speaker, connect the (+) and (–) terminals on the rear panel to the (+) and (–) terminals marked on the speakers.

Close the terminal.

*When using a single speaker for the surround back speaker

You can enjoy the surround sound by one surround back speaker. When using one surround back speaker, – set “SB OUT” to “<1SPK>” (see page 19) and – connect the surround back speaker to the left surround back

speaker terminal. (No sound comes from the speaker if

you connect it to the right surround back speaker terminal.)

Connecting the powered subwoofer

By connecting a subwoofer, you can enhance the bass or reproduce the original LFE signals recorded in digital software.

Connect the input jack of a powered subwoofer to the SUBWOOFER OUT jack on the rear panel, using a cord with RCA pin plugs (not supplied).

• Refer also to the manual supplied with your subwoofer.

After connecting all the speakers and/or a subwoofer, set the speaker setting information properly to obtain the best possible surround effect. For details, see pages 17 to 21.

NOTE

You can place a subwoofer wherever you like since bass sound is non-directional. Normally place it in front of you.

About video signal conversion

Component

S-video

Video (composite)

This receiver can convert composite video signals into S-video signals. See the table below about the video conversion.

• If using composite video cable for connecting to the video input and using S-video cable for connecting to the video output, the video signal is converted into S-video signal automatically.

•Even if the recording components are connected to the receiver using the S-video cords and the playpack components are connected to the receiver using the composite video cords, you can record the picture on TV.

• Pictures may be distorted if the signals are converted. If this happens, connect the playback source component and TV using the cords of the same type.

• Incoming signal of component can be emitted only through the component output jacks.

Digital connection

This receiver is equipped with three DIGITAL IN terminals—one digital coaxial terminal and two digital optical terminals—and one DIGITAL OUT terminal. To reproduce the digital sound, use the digital connection in addition to the analog connection methods described on pages 7 to 10.

Digital coaxial cable (not supplied)

Digital optical cable (not supplied)

NOTES

• When shipped from the factory, the DIGITAL IN terminals have been set for use with the following components: – 1(DVR/DVD): For DVD recorder or DVD player – 2(DBS): For DBS tuner – 3(VCR): For VCR If you connect other components, change the digital input

(DIGITAL IN) terminal setting correctly. See “Setting the digital input (DIGITAL IN) terminals—DIGITAL IN 1/2/3” on page 22.

• Select the correct digital input mode. See “Selecting the analog or digital input mode” on page 14.

• When you want to operate the connected component (except DBS tuner) using the AV COMPU LINK remote control system (see pages 34 and 35), connect them also as described on pages 7 to 10.

7 Digital output terminal

You can connect any digital components which have an optical digital input terminal.

Connecting digital recording equipment to the DIGITAL OUT terminal enables you to perform digital-to-digital recording.

Turn off all components before making connections.

• When you connect other components, refer also to their manuals.

7 Digital input terminals

When the component has a digital coaxial output terminal, connect it to the 1(DVR/DVD) terminal, using a digital coaxial cable (not supplied).

When the component has a digital optical output terminal, connect it to the 2(DBS) or 3(VCR) terminal, using a digital optical cable (not supplied).

Before connecting a digital optical cable, unplug the protective plug.

NOTE

The digital signal format transmitted through the DIGITAL OUT terminal is the same as that of the input signal. For example, when the DTS signals are input, the DTS signals are transmitted.
