Speaker Precautions

Placement

• The subwoofer cabinet is made out of wood and is therefore sensitive to extreme temperatures and humidity, do not put it in locations subject to direct sunlight or in humid places, such as near an air conditioner, humidifier, bathroom, or kitchen.

• Do not put water or other liquids close to the speakers. If liquid is spilled over the speakers, the drive units may be damaged.

• Speakers should only be placed on sturdy, flat surfaces that are free from vibration. Putting them on uneven or unstable surfaces, where they may fall and cause damage, will affect the sound quality.

• Subwoofer is designed to be used in the upright vertical position only. Do not use it in the horizontal or tilted position.

• If the unit is used near a turntable, CD player or DVD/ BD player, howling or slipping of sound may occur. To prevent this, move the unit away from the turntable, CD player or DVD/BD player, otherwise lower the unit’s output level.

Using Close to a TV or Computer

TVs and computer monitors are magnetically sensitive devices and as such are likely to suffer discoloration or picture distortion when conventional speakers are placed nearby. To prevent this, the SKF-370 and SKC-370/ SKC-370C feature internal magnetic shielding. In some situations, however, discoloration may still be an issue, in which case you should turn off your TV or monitor, wait 15 to 30 minutes, and then turn it back on again. This normally activates the degaussing function, which neutralizes the magnetic field, thereby removing any discoloration effects. If discoloration problems persist, try moving the speakers away from your TV or monitor. Note that discoloration can also be caused by a magnet or demagnetizing tool that’s too close to your TV or monitor.

Do not place SKR-370 close to TV or a computer monitor because they have no magnetic shield.

Input Signal Warning

The speakers can handle the specified input power when used for normal music reproduction. If any of the following signals are fed to them, even if the input power is within the specified rating, excessive current may flow in the speaker coils, causing burning or wire breakage:

1. Interstation noise from an untuned FM radio.

2. Sound from fast-forwarding a cassette tape.

3. High-pitched sounds generated by an oscillator,

electronic musical instrument, and so on.

4. Amplifier oscillation.

5. Special test tones from audio test CDs and so on.

6. Thumps and clicks caused by connecting or discon-

necting audio cables (Always turn off your amplifier before connecting or disconnecting cables.)

7. Microphone feedback.

To open the battery compartment, press

the small lever and remove the cover.

Insert the two supplied batteries (AA/R6)

in accordance with the polarity diagram inside the battery compartment.

Replace the cover and push it shut.

Notes:

• If the remote controller doesn’t work reliably, try replacing the batteries.

• Don’t mix new and old batteries or different types of batteries.

• If you intend not to use the remote controller for a long time, remove the batteries to prevent damage from leakage or corrosion.

• Expired batteries should be removed as soon as possible to prevent damage from leakage or corrosion.

Aiming the Remote Controller

When using the remote controller, point it toward the AV receiver’s remote control sensor, as shown below.

Notes:

• The remote controller may not work reliably if the AV receiver is subjected to bright light, such as direct sunlight or inverter-type fluorescent lights. Keep this in mind when installing.

• If another remote controller of the same type is used in the same room, or the AV receiver is installed close to equipment that uses infrared rays, the remote controller may not work reliably.

• Don’t put anything on top of the remote controller, such as a book or magazine, because a button may be pressed continuously, thereby draining the batteries.

• The remote controller may not work reliably if the AV receiver is installed in a rack behind colored glass doors. Keep this in mind when installing.

• The remote controller will not work if there’s an obstacle between it and the AV receiver’s remote control sensor.

Enjoying Home Theater

Speaker Sets A and B

You can use two sets of speakers with the AV receiver: speaker set A and speaker set B. Speaker set A should be used in your main listening room for up to 5.1-channel playback.

* While speaker set B is on, speaker set A is reduced to 2.1-channel playback.

Speaker set B can be used in another room and offers 2-channel stereo playback.

Center speaker (SKC-370/SKC-370C)

This speaker enhances the front left and right speakers, making sound movements distinct and providing a full sound image. For movies it’s used mainly for dialog. Position it close to your TV facing forward at about ear level, or at the same height as the front left and right speakers.

While speaker set B is on, this speaker outputs no sound.

Subwoofer (SKW-370)

The subwoofer handles the bass sounds of the LFE (Low-Frequency Effects) channel. In general, a good bass sound can be obtained by installing the subwoofer in a front corner, or at one-third the way along the wall, as shown. Tip:To find the best position for your subwoofer, while playing a movie or some music with good bass, experiment by placing your subwoofer at various positions within the room and choose the one that provides the most satisfying results.

Corner position

Front left and right speakers (SKF-370 L/R)

These output the overall sound. Their role in a home theater is to provide a solid anchor for the sound image. They should be positioned facing the listener at about ear level, and equally spaced from the TV. Angle them inward.

HTP-370 speaker package is shown

1/3 of wall position

Speaker Set B: Sub Room

Surround left and right speakers (SKR-370 L/R)

These speakers are used for precise sound positioning and to add realistic ambience. Position them at the sides of the listener, or slightly behind, about 2–3 feet (60–100 cm) above ear level. Ideally they should be equally spaced from the listener.

While speaker set B is on, these speakers output no sound.

Connecting the AV receiver

Connecting Your Speakers

Speaker Connection Precautions

Read the following before connecting your speakers:

• You can connect speakers with an impedance of 6 ohms or higher. If you use speakers with a lower impedance, and use the amplifier at high volume levels for a long period of time, the built-in protection circuit may be activated.

• Disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet before making any connections.

• Read the instructions supplied with your speakers.

• Pay close attention to speaker wiring polarity. Connect positive (+) terminals to only positive (+) terminals, and negative (–) terminals to only negative (–) terminals. If you get them the wrong way around, the sound will be out of phase and will sound unnatural.

• Unnecessarily long or very thin speaker cables may affect the sound quality and should be avoided.

• Be careful not to short the positive and negative wires. Doing so may damage the AV receiver.

Caution:

A mounting screw’s ability to support a speaker depends on how well it’s anchored to the wall. If you have hollow walls, screw each mounting screw into a stud. If there are no studs, or the walls are solid, use suitable wall anchors. Use screws with a head diameter of 5/16" (9 mm) or less and a shank diameter of 1/8" (4 mm) or less. With hollow walls, use a cable/pipe detector to check for any power cables or water pipes before making any holes.

Connecting Components with HDMI

About HDMI

Designed to meet the increased demands of digital TV, HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is a new digital interface standard for connecting TVs, projectors, DVD/BD players, set-top boxes, and other video components. Until now, several separate video and audio cables have been required to connect AV components. With HDMI, a single cable can carry control signals, digital video, and up to eight channels of digital audio (2-channel PCM, multichannel digital audio, or multichannel PCM). The HDMI video stream (i.e., video signal) is compatible with DVI (Digital Visual Interface) with a DVI input can be connected by using an HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable. (This may not work with some TVs and displays, resulting in no picture.) The AV receiver uses HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), so only HDCP-compatible components will display a picture.

The AV receiver’s HDMI interface is based on the following standard:

Pass-Thru

About Copyright Protection

The AV receiver supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection)*2, a copy-protection system for digital video signals. Other devices connected to the AV receiver via HDMI must also support HDCP.

Use a commercially available HDMI cable (supplied with some components) to connect the AV receiver’s HDMI OUT to the HDMI input on your TV or projector.

*1 DVI (Digital Visual Interface): The digital display interface standard set by the DDWG*3 in 1999. *2 HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection): The video encryption technology developed by Intel for HDMI/DVI. It’s designed to

protect video content and requires a HDCP-compatible device to display the encrypted video.

*3 DDWG (Digital Display Working Group): Led by Intel, Compaq, Fujitsu, Hewlett Packard, IBM, NEC, and Silicon Image, this open

industry group’s objective is to address the industry's requirements for a digital connectivity specification for high-performance PCs and digital displays.

Making HDMI Connections

If you have an HDMI-compatible player, you can connect it to the AV receiver with an HDMI cable.

Step 1: Connect your HDMI-compatible TV to the AV receiver’s HDMI OUT jack.

Step 2: Connect your HDMI-compatible player to the AV receiver’s HDMI IN 1, 2, or 3 jack.

Step 3: Connect your HDMI-compatible player to an analog and/or digital audio input on the AV

receiver.

■ Audio Signals

• Audio and video signals received via inputs other than the HDMI IN jacks are not output by the HDMI OUT.

• Audio and video signals received via the HDMI IN jacks are output only by the HDMI OUT.

• To watch an HDMI source that’s connected via the AV receiver’s HDMI jacks, the AV receiver must be turned on, otherwise no HDMI signal will be output.

• If you want to listen through the speakers connected to the AV receiver, in addition to an HDMI connection, you’ll also need to make a separate analog or digital audio connection.

If you make the connection described in step 3, to fully enjoy the AV receiver's listening modes, turn down the volume on your TV all the way so that its speakers output no sound.

Connect one or the other

Sound off

Notes:

• The HDMI video stream is compatible with DVI (Digital Visual Interface), so TVs and displays with a DVI input can be connected by using an HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable. (Note that DVI connections only carry video, so you’ll need to make a separate connection for audio.) However, reliable operation with such an adapter is not guaranteed. In addition, video signals from a PC are not supported.

• When listening to an HDMI component through the AV receiver, set the HDMI component so that its video can be seen on the TV screen (on the TV, select the input of the HDMI component connected to the AV receiver).

• The HDMI audio signal (sampling rate, bit length, etc.) may be restricted by the connected source component. If the picture is poor or there’s no sound from a component connected via HDMI, check its setup. Refer to the connected component’s instruction manual for details.

• The surround sound and DSP listening modes cannot be recorded.

• Copy-protected DVDs cannot be recorded.

• Sources connected to a digital input cannot be recorded. Only analog inputs can be recorded.

• DTS signals will be recorded as noise, so don’t attempt analog recording of DTS CDs or LDs.

Recording the Input Source

Audio sources can be recorded to a recorder (e.g., cassette deck, CDR, MD) connected to the TV/TAPE OUT jack. Video sources can be recorded to a video recorder (e.g., VCR, DVR) connected to the VCR/DVR OUT jacks. See pages 21 to 34 for hookup information.

Use the input selector buttons to select the source that you want to record.

You can watch the source while recording it. The AV receiver’s MASTER VOLUME control has no effect on recording.

Recording from Different AV Sources

You can overdub audio onto your video recordings by simultaneously recording audio and video from two separate sources. This is possible because only the audio source is switched when an audio-only input source, such as TV/TAPE or CD, is selected, the video source remains the same.

In the following example, audio from the CD player connected to the CD IN and video from the camcorder connected to the DVD/BD IN V jack are recorded by the VCR connected to the VCR/DVR OUT jacks.

About the Listening Modes

The AV receiver’s listening modes can transform your listening room into a movie theater or concert hall, with high fidelity and stunning surround sound.

Direct

In this mode, audio from the input source is output directly with minimal processing, providing highfidelity reproduction. All of the source’s audio channels are output as they are.

Stereo

Sound is output by the front left and right speakers and subwoofer.

Mono

Use this mode when watching an old movie with a mono soundtrack, or use it with the foreign language soundtracks recorded in the left and right channels of some movies. It can also be used with DVDs or other sources containing multiplexed audio, such as karaoke DVDs.

Dolby Pro Logic II

• Dolby Pro Logic II Movie

Use this mode with DVDs and videos that bear the Dolby Surround logo or TV shows that feature Dolby Surround. You can also use this mode with stereo movies or TV shows and the AV receiver will create a 5.1 surround mix from the 2-channel stereo.

• Dolby Pro Logic II Music

Use this mode to add 5.1 surround to stereo sources such as music CDs and DVDs.

• Dolby Pro Logic II Game

Use this mode when playing game discs.

Dolby Digital

Use this mode with DVDs that bear the Dolby Digital logo, and Dolby Digital TV broadcasts. This is the most common digital surround-sound format, and it’ll put you right in the middle of the action, just like being in a movie theater or concert hall.

DTS

The DTS digital surround-sound format supports up to

5.1 discrete channels and uses less compression for highfidelity reproduction. Use it with DVDs and CDs that bear the DTS logo.

DTS 96/24

This mode is for use with DTS 96/24 sources. This is high-resolution DTS with a 96kHz sampling rate and 24bit resolution, providing superior fidelity. Use it with DVDs that bear the DTS 96/24 logo.

DTS Neo:6

This mode expands any 2-channel source for up to 5.1channel playback. It uses five full-bandwidth channels of matrix decoding for matrix-encoded material, providing a very natural and seamless surround sound experience that fully envelops the listener.

•Neo:6 Cinema

Use this mode with any stereo movie (e.g., TV, DVD, VHS).

• Neo:6 Music

Use this mode with any stereo music source (e.g., CD, radio, cassette, TV, VHS, DVD).

Onkyo Original DSP Modes

Orchestra

Suitable for classical or operatic music, this mode emphasizes the surround channels in order to widen the stereo image and simulates the natural reverberation of a large hall.

Unplugged

Suitable for acoustic instruments, vocals, and jazz, this mode emphasizes the front stereo image, giving the impression of being right in front of the stage.

Studio-Mix

Suitable for rock or pop music, listening to music in this mode creates a lively sound field with a powerful acoustic image, like being at a club or rock concert.

TV Logic

This mode adds realistic acoustics to TV shows produced in a TV studio, surround effects to the entire sound, and clarity to voices.

Game-RPG

Use this mode when playing role playing game discs.

Game-Action

Use this mode when playing action game discs.

Game-Rock

Use this mode when playing rock game discs.

Game-Sports

Use this mode when playing sports game discs.

All Ch Stereo

Ideal for background music, this mode fills the entire listening area with stereo sound from the front and surround speakers.

Full Mono

In this mode, all speakers output the same sound in mono, so the sound you hear is the same regardless of where you are within the listening room.

T-D (Theater-Dimensional)

With this mode you can enjoy a virtual 5.1 surround sound even with only two or three speakers. This works by controlling how sounds reach the listener’s left and right ears. Good results may not be possible if there’s too much reverb, so we recommend that you use this mode in an environment with little or no natural reverb.

With this setting, you can broaden the width of the front stereo image when using the Dolby Pro Logic II Music listening mode.

Dimension –3 to +3 (default: 0)

With this setting, you can move the sound field forward or backward when using the Dolby Pro Logic II Music listening mode. Higher settings move the sound field backward. Lower settings move it forward. If the stereo image feels too wide, or there’s too much surround sound, move the sound field forward to improve the balance. Conversely, if the stereo image feels like it’s in mono, or there’s not enough surround sound, move it backward.

Center Width 0 to 7 (default: 3)

With this setting, you can adjust the width of the sound from the center speaker when using the Dolby Pro Logic II Music listening mode. Normally, if you’re using a center speaker, the center channel sound is output by only the center speaker. (If you’re not using a center speaker, the center channel sound will be distributed to the front left and right speakers to create a phantom center.) This setting controls the front left, right, and center mix, allowing you to adjust the weight of the center channel sound.

Center Image 0 to 5 (default: 2)

The DTS Neo:6 Music listening mode creates 6-channel surround sound from 2-channel stereo sources. With this setting, you can specify by how much the front left and right channel output is attenuated in order to create the center channel.

Setting a value [0] in the middle is set to hear a sound. Sound is spread in left and right (the outside) so that the set value is made big. Please adjust by liking.

Advanced Setup—Continued

Audyssey Settings

Audyssey EQ™ is based on the same core technology as Audyssey MultEQ® that is used for automatic correction of room acoustics. Audyssey EQ uses time-domain filters to correct problems that arise from speaker drivers and enclosures and is calibrated to account for the acoustical problems in a typical listening environment. The Audyssey EQ filters in the HT-R370 are specifically optimized for the Onkyo HTP-370 Speaker Package and should not be used with other speakers.

Dynamic EQ Off: Audyssey Dynamic EQ™ off (default).

On: Audyssey Dynamic EQ on.

With Audyssey Dynamic EQ, you can enjoy great sound even when listening at low volume levels. Audyssey Dynamic EQ solves the problem of deteriorating sound quality as volume is decreased by taking into account human perception and room acoustics. It does so by selecting the correct frequency response and

surround volume levels moment-by-moment so that the content sounds the way it was created at any volume level--not just at reference level.

Notes:

• Audyssey Dynamic EQ allows you to maintain the proper octave-to-octave balance at any volume level in accordance with the preset speakers.

• In order to record with appropriate sound, Audyssey EQ is automatically deactivated during a recording. After the recording is finished, Audyssey EQ and Audyssey Dynamic EQ will resume as previously set.

• Audyssey Dynamic EQ can be set only when the “6. Equalizer” on page 54 are set to “Audyssey”.

• In “Off”, “Dyn Vol” becomes “Off”.

Dyn Vol (Dynamic Volume)

Off: Audyssey Dynamic Volume™ off.

Light: Light Compression Mode becomes active.

Medium: Medium Compression Mode becomes active.

Heavy: Heavy Compression Mode becomes active. This setting affects volume the most,

causing all sounds to be of equal loudness.

Notes:

• Other than “Off”, “Dynamic EQ” becomes “On”, and “6. Equalizer” (page 54) setting becomes “Audyssey”.

• “Dynamic Volume” becomes active when Dynamic EQ is set to “On”. Therefore, it is “Off” forcibly if “Dynamic EQ” becomes “Off”.

If Audyssey Dynanic EQ is set to “On”, Audyssey Dynamic Volume becomes available.

About Audyssey Dynamic EQ

Audyssey Dynamic EQ solves the problem of deteriorating sound quality as volume is decreased by taking into account human perception and room acoustics. Dynamic EQ selects the correct frequency response momentby-moment at any user-selected volume setting. The result is bass response and tonal balance that remains constant despite changes in volume. Dynamic EQ combines information from incoming source levels with actual output sound levels in the room, a prerequisite for delivering a loudness correction solution. Audyssey Dynamic EQ works in tandem with Audyssey EQ to provide well-balanced sound for every listener at any volume level.

About Audyssey Dynamic Volume

Audyssey Dynamic Volume solves the problem of large variations in volume level between television programs, commercials, and between the soft and loud passages of movies. Dynamic Volume looks at the preferred volume setting by the user and then monitors how the volume of program material is being perceived by listeners in real time to decide whether an adjustment is needed. Whenever necessary, Dynamic Volume makes the necessary rapid or gradual adjustments to maintain the desired playback volume level while optimizing the dynamic range. Audyssey Dynamic EQ is integrated into Dynamic Volume so that as the playback volume is adjusted automatically, the perceived bass response, tonal balance, surround impression, and dialog clarity remain the same whether watching movies, flipping between television channels, or changing from stereo to surround sound content.

Audio

There’s no sound or it’s very quiet

• Press the SPEAKERS [A] or [B] button to turn on the indicator for the speakers that you want to output sound.

• HDMI audio is passed through the AV receiver and can only be heard from your TV.

• To listen to an audio source that’s connected to an OPTICAL or COAXIAL input, make sure that input is assigned to an input selector (page 36).

• Make sure that all audio connecting plugs are pushed in all the way (page 21).

• Make sure that the polarity of the speaker cables is correct, and that the bare wire is in contact with the metal part of each speaker terminal (page 16).

• Make sure that the speaker cables are not shorting.

• Check the volume (page 38). The AV receiver is designed for home theater enjoyment and has a wide volume range for precise adjustment.

• If the MUTING indicator is flashing on the display, press the remote controller’s [MUTING] button to unmute the AV receiver (page 39).

• While a pair of headphones is connected to the PHONES jack, no sound is output by the speakers (page 40).

• Check the digital audio output settings on the source component. On some game consoles, such as those that can play DVDs, the default setting is off.

• With some DVD-Video discs, you need to select an audio format from a menu or with the [AUDIO] button on your DVD player’s remote controller.

• If your turntable doesn’t have a phono preamp builtin, you must connect one between it and the AV receiver.

• If your turntable uses an MC cartridge, you must connect an MC head amp, or an MC transformer and a phono preamp.

• Check the speaker settings (pages 52–54).

• If the digital signal format is set to PCM or DTS, set it to “Auto” (page 41).

Only the front speakers produce sound

• When the Stereo or Mono listening mode is selected, only the front speakers and subwoofer produce sound.

• Check the “3. Sp Config” (page 52).

Only the center speaker produces sound

• If you use the Dolby Pro Logic II Movie or Dolby Pro Logic II Music listening mode with a mono source, such as an AM radio station or mono TV program, the sound will be concentrated in the center speaker.

• Check the “3. Sp Config” (page 52).

The center speaker produces no sound

• When the Stereo or Mono listening mode is selected, the center speaker produces no sound (page 51).

• Check the “3. Sp Config” (page 52).

The surround speakers produce no sound

• When the Stereo or Mono listening mode is selected, the surround speakers produce no sound.

• Depending on the source and the current listening mode, not much sound may be produced by the surround speakers. Try another listening mode (page 47).

• Check the “3. Sp Config” (page 52).

The subwoofer produces no sound

• The subwoofer outputs no sound while only speaker set B is on. Turn on speaker set A.

• If the source material contains no audio in the LFE channel, the subwoofer produces no sound.

• Check the “3. Sp Config” (page 52).

Troubleshooting—Continued

• On the AV receiver, the subwoofer setting in the “3. Sp Config” is set to “No”. Set the subwoofer setting to “Yes”.

There’s no sound with a certain signal format

• Check the digital audio output setting on the source component. On some game consoles, such as those that can play DVDs, the default setting is off.

• With some DVD-Video discs, you need to select an audio format from a menu or with the [AUDIO] button on your DVD player’s remote controller.

Can’t get 5.1-channel playback

• When speaker B is turned on, speaker set A is reduced to 2.1-channel playback.

The volume cannot be set to 79

• After the volume level of each individual speaker has been adjusted (page 54), the maximum volume may be reduced.

• When the levels of each speaker have been adjusted (page 54), the maximum possible volume may be reduced.

Noise can be heard

• Using cable ties to bundle audio cables with power cords, speaker cables, and so on can degrade audio performance, so don’t use them.

• An audio cable may be picking up interference. Try repositioning your cables.

The Late Night function doesn’t work

• Make sure that the source is Dolby Digital (page 58).

About DTS signals

• When playing DTS program material, using the pause, fast forward, or fast reverse function on your player may produce a short audible noise. This is not a malfunction.

• When DTS program material ends and the DTS bitstream stops, the AV receiver remains in DTS listening mode and the DTS indicator remains on. This is to prevent noise when you use the pause, fast forward, or fast reverse function on your player. If you switch your player from DTS to PCM, as the AV receiver does not switch formats immediately, you may not hear anything, in which case you should stop your player for about 3 seconds, and then resume playback.

• With some CD players, you won’t be able to playback DTS material properly even though your player is connected to a digital input on the AV receiver. This is usually because the DTS bitstream has been processed (e.g., output level, sampling rate, or frequency response changed) and the AV receiver doesn’t recognize it as a genuine DTS signal. In such cases, you may hear noise.

Video

There’s no picture

• Make sure that all video connecting plugs are pushed in all the way (page 21).

• Make sure that each video component is properly connected.

• On your TV, make sure that the video input to which the AV receiver is connected is selected.

• The AV receiver does not convert between formats, so if a video source component is connected to a component video input, your TV must be connected to the component video output (page 22).

• If the video source is connected to an HDMI input, your TV must be connected to the HDMI OUT (page 22).

There’s no picture from a source connected to an HDMI IN

• Reliable operation with an HDMI-to-DVI adapter is not guaranteed. In addition, video signals from a PC are not supported (page 24).

• If the message “Resolution Error” appears on the AV receiver’s display, this indicates that your TV does not support the current video resolution and you need to select another resolution on your DVD/BD player.

Tuner

Reception is noisy, stereo FM reception suffers from hiss, or the FM STEREO indicator doesn’t light up

• Relocate your antenna.

• Move the AV receiver away from your TV or computer.

• Listen to the station in mono (page 43).

• When listening to an AM station, operating the remote controller may cause noise.

• Passing cars and airplanes can cause interference.

• Concrete walls weaken radio signals.

• If nothing improves the reception, install an outdoor antenna.

Remote Controller

The remote controller doesn’t work

• Make sure that the batteries are installed with the correct polarity (page 14).

• Install new batteries. Don’t mix different types of batteries, or old and new batteries (page 14).

• Make sure that the remote controller is not too far away from the AV receiver and there’s no obstruction between the remote controller and the AV receiver’s remote control sensor (page 14).

• Make sure that the AV receiver is not subjected to direct sunshine or inverter-type fluorescent lights. Relocate if necessary.

Troubleshooting—Continued

•

If the AV receiver is installed in a rack or cabinet with colored-glass doors, the remote controller may not work reliably when the doors are closed.

• Make sure you’ve selected the correct remote controller mode (pages 13 and 62–65).

• Make sure to set the same ID on both the AV receiver and remote controller (page 57).

• Make sure you’ve entered the correct remote control code (page 60).

Can’t control other components

• If it’s an Onkyo component, make sure that the u cable and analog audio cable are connected properly. Connecting only an u cable won’t work (page 34).

• Make sure you’ve selected the correct remote controller mode.

• If you’ve connected an u-capable Onkyo MD recorder, CD recorder, or RI Dock to the TV/TAPE IN/OUT jacks, or an RI Dock to the CBL/SAT IN or VCR/DVR IN jacks, for the remote controller to work properly, you must set the Input Display to “MD”, “CDR”, or “DOCK”, respectively (page 37).

• The entered remote control code may not be correct. If more than one code is listed, try each one.

• With some AV components, certain buttons may not work as expected, and some may not work at all.

• To control an Onkyo component that’s connected via u, point the remote controller at the AV receiver. Be sure to enter the appropriate remote control code first (page 61).

Recording

Can’t record

• On your recorder, make sure the correct input is selected.

• To prevent signal loops and damage to the AV receiver, input signals are not fed through to outputs with the same name (e.g., TV/TAPE IN to TV/TAPE OUT or VCR/DVR IN to VCR/DVR OUT).

Others

The sound changes when I connect my headphones

• When a pair of headphones is connected, the listening mode is set to Stereo, unless it’s already set to Stereo, Mono or Direct in which case it stays the same.

How do I change the language of a multiplex source

• On the “7. Audio Adjust” menu, change the “Input (Mux)” setting to “Main” or “Sub” (page 55).

The u functions don’t work

• To use u, you must make an u connection and an analog audio connection (RCA) between the component and AV receiver, even if they are connected digitally (page 34).

•Video Attenuation

This setting can be made for the DVD/BD, VCR/DVR, CBL/SAT, or AUX input. If you have a games console connected to the composite video input, and the picture isn’t very clear, you can attenuate the gain.

Video ATT:0: (default). Video ATT:2: Gain is reduced by 2 dB.

The AV receiver contains a microcomputer for signal processing and control functions. In very rare situations, severe interference, noise from an external source, or static electricity may cause it to lockup. In the unlikely event that this happens, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, wait at least 5 seconds, and then plug it back in again.

Onkyo is not responsible for damages (such as CD rental fees) due to unsuccessful recordings caused by this unit’s malfunction. Before you record important data, make sure that the material will be recorded correctly.

Before disconnecting the power cord from the wall outlet, set the AV receiver to Standby.
