change the source name, which will be shown on the display when
selected as the source, to “CDR.” See page 13 for details.
If your audio components have a COMPU LINK jack
See also page 28 for detailed information about the connection and
the COMPU LINK remote control system.
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.
If your video components have S-video (Y/C-separation) terminals,
connect them using S-video cables (not supplied). Connecting these
video components through the S-video input/output terminals will
give you better picture playback (or recording) quality.
IMPORTANT:
This receiver is equipped with both the composite video and S-video
input/output terminals for connecting video components.
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 terminals are output only through the composite
video output terminals, while the ones from the S-video input
terminals are output only through the S-video output terminals.
Therefore, if a recording video component and a playing video
component are connected to the receiver through the different video
terminals, you cannot record the picture from the playing component
on the recording component. In addition, if the TV and a playing video
component are connected to the receiver through the different video
terminals, you cannot view the playback picture from the playing
component on the TV.

Connecting the Power Cord
Putting Batteries in the Remote Control
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.
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.

Selecting different sources for picture and
sound
You can watch picture from a video component while listening to
sound from another component.
Press one of the audio source selecting buttons — PHONO, CD,
TAPE/CDR, FM/AM, TV SOUND/DBS* (or TV/DBS on the
remote control), while viewing the picture from a video component
such as the VCR, DVD player, or DBS tuner, etc.
Selecting the Front Speakers
On the front panel ONLY:
When you have connected two pairs of the front speakers, you can
select which to use.
SPEAKERS ON/OFF

Notes:
• Once you have selected a video source, pictures of the selected
source are sent to the TV until you select another video source.
* The TV SOUND/DBS (or TV/DBS on the remote control) only
works for selecting “DBS” as the source but not for selecting “TV
SOUND (or TV on the remote control).” When you use the DBS
tuner, change the source name correctly (see page 13).
Adjusting the Volume
On the front panel:
To increase the volume, turn MASTER
VOLUME clockwise.
To decrease the volume, turn it
counterclockwise.
• When you turn MASTER VOLUME
rapidly, the volume level also changes
rapidly.
• When you turn MASTER VOLUME slowly,
the volume level also changes slowly.
From the remote control:
To increase the volume, press VOLUME +.
To decrease the volume, press VOLUME –.
CAUTION:
Always set the volume to the minimum before starting any source. If
the volume is set at its high level, the sudden blast of sound energy
can permanently damage your hearing and/or ruin your speakers.
Note:
The volume level can be adjusted within the range of “0” (minimum) to
“80” (maximum).

To use the speakers connected to the FRONT SPEAKERS 1
terminals, press SPEAKERS ON/OFF 1 so that the SPK 1 indicator
lights up on the display. (Make sure that the SPK 2 is not on the
display.)
To use the speakers connected to the FRONT SPEAKERS 2
terminals, press SPEAKERS ON/OFF 2 so that the SPK 2 indicator
lights up on the display. (Make sure that the SPK 1 is not on the
display.)
To use both sets of the speakers, press SPEAKERS ON/OFF 1 and
2 so that the SPK 1 and SPK 2 indicators light up on the display.
To use neither sets of the speakers, press SPEAKERS ON/OFF 1
and 2 so that the SPK 1 and SPK 2 indicators disappear from the
display.
Notes:
• If you select any of the DSP modes while using both the speakers
connected to the FRONT SPEAKERS 1 and 2 terminals, the
speakers connected to the FRONT SPEAKERS 2 terminals are
deactivated.
• While the DSP MODE is in use, you can only select either the
speakers connected to the FRONT SPEAKERS 1 or 2 terminals.
Listening only with headphones
You must turn off both pairs of speakers when you listen with
headphones.
1. Connect a pair of headphones to the PHONES jack on the front
panel.
2. Press SPEAKERS ON/OFF 1 and SPEAKERS ON/OFF 2 so
that neither the SPK 1 nor SPK 2 indicator appears on the
display.
This cancels the DSP mode currently selected, and activates the
HEADPHONE mode (see below).
• “HEADPHONE” appears and H. PHONE indicator lights up
on the display.
11
HEADPHONE mode:
This mode can reproduce the LFE channel signals, mixing them
with the front channel signals. So you will not miss the
subwoofer sounds even if you listen to a source using the
headphones.
Notes:
• While in the HEADPHONE mode, you cannot use any DSP modes
(see page 20.)
• Activating the speaker cancels the HEADPHONE mode and turns
on the DSP mode previously selected.
CAUTION:
Be sure to turn down the volume before connecting or putting on
headphones, as high volume can damage both the headphones and
your hearing.
