Getting started
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 (23˚F and 95˚F).
• 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.
123
1
Press and slide the battery cover on the back
of the remote control.
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 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)
4
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.
Turn 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, disconnect the supplied FM antenna.

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

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

• For each speaker, connect the (+) and (–) terminals on the
rear panel to the (+) and (–) terminals marked on the
speakers.
3 Close the 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 15 to 19.
NOTE
You can place a subwoofer wherever you like since bass sound is
non-directional. Normally place it in front of you.

Connecting the power cord
When all the audio/video connections have been made, connect
the AC power plug to the wall outlet. Make sure that the plugs are
inserted firmly. The standby lamp lights in red.
CAUTIONS:
• Do not touch the power cord with wet hands.
• Do not alter, twist or pull the power cord, or put anything heavy
on it, which may cause fire, electric shock, or other accidents.
• If the cord is damaged, consult a dealer and have the power
cord replaced with a new one.
NOTES
• Keep the power cord away from the connecting cables and the
antenna. The power cord may cause noise or screen
interference.
• 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.
Now PC is ready for playback through the USB connection.
After installation is completed, you can use your PC as the
playback source. The PC automatically recognizes the receiver
whenever a USB cable is connected between the PC and the
receiver while the receiver is turned on.
• When not using the PC as the playback source, disconnect the
USB cable.
To play back sounds on the PC, refer to the manuals supplied
with the sound reproduction application installed in the PC.
NOTES
• DO NOT turn off the receiver or disconnect the USB cable while
installing the drivers and for several seconds while your PC is
recognizing the receiver.
• Use a full speed USB cable (version 1.1). Recommended cord
length is 1.5 m.
• If your PC does not recognize the receiver, disconnect the USB
cable and connect it again. If it does not work yet, restart
Windows.
• The installed drivers can be recognized only when the USB
cable is connected between the receiver and your PC.
• The sound may not be played back correctly—interrupted or
degraded—due to your PC settings and PC specifications.
