This section explains how to connect audio/video components and speakers to the receiver, and how to connect the
power supply.
Before Installation
Connecting the FM and AM Antennas
English
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.
• Remote Control (1)
• Batteries (2)
• AM Loop Antenna (1)
• FM Antenna (1)
If anything is missing, contact your dealer immediately.
FM Antenna Connections

Extend the supplied FM antenna horizontally.
Outdoor FM Antenna Cable
A. Using a Supplied FM Antenna
The FM antenna provided can be connected to the FM 75Ω
COAXIAL terminal as temporary measure.
B. Using a Standard Type Connector (Not 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 75
to an outdoor antenna), disconnect the supplied FM antenna.

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.)
1 Cut, twist and remove the insulation at the end of
each speaker signal cable (not supplied).
2 Open the terminal and then insert the speaker
signal cable.
3 Close 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).
Right speaker
FRONT SPEAKERS 1
Left speaker
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.

Video component connections
English
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.
TV and/or DBS tuner
When connecting the TV to the TV SOUND/DBS jacks, DO NOT
connect the TV’s video output to the video input terminal.

If your audio components have an AV COMPU LINK terminal
See also page 27 for detailed information about the connection and
the AV COMPU LINK remote control system.
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
English
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
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).
DIGITAL 1
(DVD)
When the component has a digital
optical output terminal, connect it to the

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).

1. On the back of the remote control, remove the
battery cover.
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.
