For U.S.A
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits
for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference
will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that

Basic OpePations
• Listening with headphones
Connect a pair of headphones to the O (phones) jack on the
front panel. This cancels the Surround mode currently
selected, deactivates speakers, and activates the
HEADPHONE mode.
The SPK 1 and 2 indicators go off from the display.
. Disconnecting a pair of headphones from the 0 (phones)
jack cancels the HEADPHONE mode and activates
speakers.
HEADPHONE mode
When using the headphones, the following signals are
output regardless of your speaker setting:
For 2-channel sources, the front left and right channel
signals are output directly from the left and right
headphones.
For multi-channel sources, the front left and right,
center, and surround channel signals are dowmmixed
and then output from the headphones without missing
bass element.
For DVD AUDIO ONLY: When down-mixing is prohibited
on the disc, only signals of the front left and right channel
are output.
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.
• Before removing headphones, as high volume may come
