AV Component Hookup
See the other side of this sheet for the speaker hookup.
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) cables carry digital audio and digital
video on a single cable, greatly simplifying AV connections. If you have an HDMIcompatible TV and source components, you can connect them to the AV receiver
with HDMI cables. Digital audio received by the HDMI inputs is output by the
speakers and headphones connected to the AV receiver.

Using the HDMI Inputs
When you connect a video component to an HDMI input, you
must assign that input to an input selector in the “HDMI
Input” Setup. For example, if you connect your DVD player to
HDMI IN1, you must assign HDMI IN1 to the DVD input
selector. See the instruction manual for details.
In addition, you must set the “HDMI Monitor” setting to
“Main” by pressing the [HDMI OUT] button.
(If your TV is not connected to the HDMI OUT, set the “HDMI
Monitor” setting to “No”.)

Using the Digital Inputs
If there’s no sound, press the [DIGITAL INPUT] button repeatedly until sound
is heard. The digital input is now properly assigned.
If you connect your DVD player to the AV receiver’s COAXIAL 1 DIGITAL IN,
and your cable/satellite receiver to the COAXIAL 3 DIGITAL IN, as shown, it's
not necessary to assign the digital input.
In addition, you must set the “HDMI Monitor”
setting to “No” by pressing the [HDMI OUT]
button.
