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.

• Remote Control (1)

• Batteries (2)

• AM (MW/LW) Loop Antenna (1)

• FM Antenna (1)

If anything is missing, contact your dealer immediately.

Notes:

• If the AM (MW/LW) loop antenna wire is covered with

vinyl, remove the vinyl by twisting it as shown in the diagram.

• 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 (MW/LW) loop antenna connected.)

Connecting the Speakers

You can connect the following speakers:

• One pair 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.

Connecting the rear and center speakers

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

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 digital TV broadcast 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 well-shielded 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 the digital coaxial cable (not supplied).

DIGITAL 1

When the component has a digital

(DVD)

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

DIGITAL 2 ( CD )

Before connecting a digital optical cable, unplug the

DIGITAL IN

protective plug.

Notes:

• When shipped from the factory, the DIGITAL IN terminals have 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 CD recorder using the COMPU LINK remote control system, connect the target component 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.
