Notes:

If “REAR SPK” and “CENTER SPK” are set to “NONE,”

you can select only “HEAD PHONE” or “OFF” for the DSP mode.

Correct

Notes:

If “REAR SPK” and “CENTER SPK” are set to “NONE,” you cannot select Surround mode.

No sounds come out of the center speaker, even if it is connected.

When “REAR SPK” and “CENTER SPK” are set to “NONE,” the same effect as used for the 3D-PHONIC is applied to any DAP mode to maintain the surround elements with only two front speakers.

Page 20.

On page 20, in the DSP mode cycle it is written that "3D ACTION" will be selected after "HEAD PHONE," but the order has been changed so that "3D ACTION" will be selected before "HEAD PHONE."

Getting Started

This section explains how to connect audio/video components and speakers to the receiver, and how to connect the power supply.

Before Installation

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˚C and 35˚C (23˚F 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.

Checking the Supplied Accessories

Check to be sure you have all of the following items, which are supplied with the receiver.

The number in the parentheses indicates the quantity of the pieces supplied.

A standard type connector should be connected to the FM 75Ω COAXIAL terminal.

Note:

If reception is poor, connect an outdoor antenna.

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

Outdoor single vinyl-covered wire (not supplied)

Turn the loop antenna until you have the best reception.

Notes:

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

If reception is poor, connect an outdoor single vinyl-covered wire to the AM EXT terminal. (Keep the AM loop antenna connected.)

Connecting the Speakers

You can connect the following speakers:

Two pairs of front speakers to produce normal stereo sound.

One pair of rear speakers to enjoy the surround effect.

One center speaker to produce more effective surround effect (to emphasize human voices).

One subwoofer to enhance the bass.

IMPORTANT:

After connecting the speakers listed above, set the speaker setting information properly to obtain the best possible DSP effect. For details, see page 12.

For each speaker (except for a subwoofer), connect the (–) and (+) terminals on the rear panel to the (–) and (+) terminals marked on the speakers. For connecting a subwoofer, see page 5.

CAUTION:

Use speakers with the SPEAKER IMPEDANCE indicated by the speaker terminals.

1Cut, twist and remove the insulation at the end of each speaker signal cable (not supplied).

2Open the terminal and then insert the speaker signal cable.

3Close the terminal.

Connecting the front speakers

You can connect two pairs of front speakers (one pair to the FRONT SPEAKERS 1 terminals, and another pair to the FRONT SPEAKERS 2 terminals).

Video component connections

Use the cables with RCA pin plugs (not supplied).

Connect the white plug to the audio left jack, the red plug to the audio right jack, and the yellow plug to the video jack.

IMPORTANT:

This receiver is equipped with both the composite video and S-video input terminals for the DVD player connection.

You do not have to connect both the composite video and S-video terminals.

However, remember that the video signals from the composite video input terminal are output only through the composite video output terminals, while the ones from the S-video input terminal are output only through the S-video output terminal.

Therefore, if your DVD player is connected to the receiver only through the S-video input terminal, you cannot record the picture from the DVD player on the VCR.

In addition, if the TV and the DVD player are connected to the receiver through the different video terminals, you cannot view the playback picture from the DVD player on the TV.

Digital connections

This receiver is equipped with two DIGITAL IN terminals — one digital coaxial terminal and one digital optical terminal.

You can connect any component to one of the digital terminals using a digital coaxial cable (not supplied) or digital optical cable (not supplied).

IMPORTANT:

When connecting the DVD player or the DBS tuner using the digital terminal, you also need to connect it to the video jack on the rear.

Without connecting it to the video jack, you can view no playback picture.

After connecting the components using the DIGITAL IN terminals, set the following correctly if necessary.

Set the digital input (DIGITAL IN) terminal setting correctly. For details, see “Digital Input (DIGITAL IN) Terminal Setting” on page

14.

Select the digital input mode correctly. For details, see “Selecting the Analog or Digital Input Mode” on page 14.

Connecting the Power Cord

Before plugging the receiver into an AC outlet, make sure that all connections have been made.

Plug the power cord into an AC outlet.

Keep the power cord away from the connecting cables and the antenna. The

power cord may cause noise or screen interference. We recommend that you use a coaxial cable to connect the antenna, since it is wellshielded against interference.

Note:

The preset settings such as preset channels and sound adjustment may be erased in a few days in the following cases:

When you unplug the power cord.

When a power failure occurs.

CAUTIONS:

Do not touch the power cord with wet hands.

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.

Putting Batteries in the Remote Control

CD player

MD recorder

Before using the remote control, put two supplied batteries first. When using the remote control, aim the remote control directly at the remote sensor on the receiver.

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

When the component has a digital optical output terminal, connect it to the DIGITAL 2 (CD), using a digital optical cable (not supplied).

DIGITALIN

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

Notes:

When shipped from the factory, the DIGITAL IN terminals has been set for use with the following components.

DIGITAL 1 (coaxial): For DVD player

DIGITAL 2 (optical): For CD player

When you want to operate the CD player or MD recorder using the

COMPU LINK remote control system, connect the target component also as described in “Analog connections” (see page 5).

When you want to operate the DVD player using the AV COMPU

LINK remote control system, connect the DVD player also as described in “Analog connections” (see page 5).

2.Insert batteries. Make sure to match the polarity:

(+) to (+) and (–) to (–).

3.Replace the cover.

If the range or effectiveness of the remote control decreases, replace the batteries. Use two R6P(SUM-3)/AA(15F) type dry-cell batteries.

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.
