HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is a digital
interface standard for connecting TVs, projectors, Bluray Disc/DVD 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 digital audio (2 ch PCM, multichannel digital
audio, and multichannel PCM).
HDMI CEC functionality:
By connecting devices and HDMI cables that comply with
the CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) specification of
the HDMI standard, a variety of linked operation become
possible between devices. You can enjoy features such as
linking input switching with the input selector and players,
control volume using the remote controller of the TV, and
automatically switching this unit to standby when the TV is
turned off.
The unit is designed to link with products that comply with
the CEC standard, and that linked operation is not always
guaranteed with all CEC devices. For linked functions
to work properly, do not connect more CEC-compliant
components than the quantities specified below, to the
HDMI jack.
•
Blu-ray Disc/DVD players: up to 3 units.
•
Blu-ray Disc/DVD recorders: up to 3 units.

By connection a TV that supports ARC with a single HDMI
cable, you can not only output the audio and video from
this unit to the TV, but also input the audio from the TV to
this unit.
HDMI Standby Through:
Even if this unit is in standby, the input signals from AV
components are transmitted to the TV.
Deep Color:
By connecting devices supporting Deep Color, video
signals input from the devices can be reproduced on the
TV with even more colors.

Supplementary information for
player functions
Due to firmware (the software for the system) updates
after you make your purchase or firmware changes during
production of the product, there may be additions or
changes to the features available compared to what is in
the instruction manual.
For information about player functions that have been
added or changed, see the following references. Refer
to "Supplementary Information, etc." - "Supplementary
Information" for information about changes to settings, etc.,
other than player functions.
Problems may be solved by simply turning the power on/
off or disconnecting/connecting the power cord, which
is easier than working on the connection, setting and
operating procedure. Try the simple measures on both the
unit and the connected device. If the problem is that the
video or audio is not output or the HDMI linked operation
does not work, disconnecting/connecting the HDMI cable
may solve it. When reconnecting, be careful not to wind
the HDMI cable since if wound the HDMI cable may not
fit well. After reconnecting, turn off and on the unit and the
connected device.
•
This unit contains a microPC 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.
•
Our company is not responsible for reparations for
damages (such as CD rental fees) due to unsuccessful
recordings caused by the unit's malfunction. Before you
record important data, make sure that the material will
be recorded correctly.

■ The subwoofer produces no sound
If the setting of the front speakers is "Large" and during
2ch input such as from the TV or music, the low range
elements will be output from the front speakers rather than
from the subwoofer. If you would rather output from the
subwoofer, make one of the following settings.
1. Change the front speakers settings to "Small".
The low range elements will be output from the
subwoofer rather than the front speakers. We do not
recommend changing this if your front speakers have
good low range reproduction capabilities.
2. Change "Double Bass" to "On".
The low range elements will be output from both the
front speakers and the subwoofer. This may mean that
there is too much bass. Do not change if this happens,
or choose option 1.
•
Refer to "Advanced Setup" - "System Setup" "Speaker" - "Crossover" in the Advanced Manual for
details.
•
When you play source material that contains no
information in the LFE channel, the subwoofer produces

■ Noise can be heard
•
Using cable ties to bundle analog audio cables, power
cords, speaker cables, etc. may degrade the audio
performance. Do not bundle cords.
•
An audio cable may be picking up interference. Try
repositioning your cables.
■ The beginning of audio received by an HDMI IN
cannot be heard
•
Since it takes longer to identify the format of an HDMI
signal than it does for other digital audio signals, audio
output may not start immediately.
■ Sound suddenly reduces
•
When the temperature inside the unit exceeds a certain
temperature for extended periods, the volume may be
reduced automatically to protect the circuits.
To enjoy digital surround playback, such as Dolby
Digital, the audio signals need to pass through a

digital optical cable. Audio output should be set to
bitstream output on the connected Blu-ray Disc player
or other device.
•
Press
switch the display of the main unit to check the input
format.
Check the following if the above does not fix the problem:
■ Cannot select a desired listening mode
•
Depending on the connecting status of the speaker,
some listening modes may not be selected. Check in
"Selectable Listening Modes" in "Listening Modes" in
the Advanced Manual.
■ There is no sound with Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Atmos,
and DTS-HD Master Audio (for compatible models
only)
•
You need to connect surround back speakers or height
speakers to enjoy Dolby Atmos. Furthermore, Dolby
Atmos can only be enjoyed when the input signals are
Dolby Atmos.
•
If you cannot output formats such as Dolby TrueHD,
Dolby Atmos, or DTS-HD Master Audio according to the
format of the source, in the Blu-ray Disc player settings
try setting "BD video supplementary sound" (or reencode, secondary sound, video additional audio, etc.)
to "Off". Change the listening mode for each source
after changing the setting to confirm.
■ About DTS signals
•
With media that switches suddenly from DTS to PCM,
PCM playback may not start immediately. In such
cases, you should stop your player for about 3 seconds
and then resume playback.
•
With some CD and LD players, you will not be able
to playback DTS material properly even though your
player is connected to a digital input on the unit. This is
usually because the DTS bitstream has been processed
on the remote controller several times to
(e.g., output level, sampling rate, or frequency response
changed) and the unit does not recognize it as a
genuine DTS signal. In such cases, you may hear
noise.
•
Playing DTS program material, using the pause or skip
function on your player may produce a short audible
noise. This is not a malfunction.
Video

1. Devices which use a 2.4 GHz radio wave frequency
•
Cordless phones
•
Cordless facsimiles
•
Microwave ovens
•
Wireless LAN devices (IEEE802.11b/g/n)
•
Wireless AV equipment
•
Wireless controllers for game systems
•
Microwave oven-based health aids
•
Video transmitter
•
Specific type of external monitor and LCD display
2. Less common devices which use a 2.4 GHz radio wave
frequency
•
Anti-theft systems
•
Amateur radio stations (HAM)
•
Warehouse logistic management systems
•
Discrimination systems for train or emergency
vehicles
If these devices and the AV receiver are used at the same
time, the audio may be undesirably stopped or disturbed
due to a radio wave interference.
Suggestions for improvement
•
Switch off the devices which emit the radio wave.
•
Place the interfering devices away from the AV
receiver.
•
The AV receiver uses radio wave, and a third person
can receive the wave on purpose or accidentally. Do not
use the communication for important or fatal matters.
•
We assume no responsibility whatsoever for any error
or damage of network environment or access device
resulting from the use of this apparatus.
Confirm with the provider or access device maker for
more information.
■ Scope of Operation
Use of the AV receiver is limited to home use.
(Transmission distances may be reduced depending on
communication environment.)
In the following locations, poor condition or inability to
receive radio waves may cause the audio to be interrupted
or stopped:
•
In reinforced concrete buildings or steel framed or iron
framed buildings.
•
Near large metallic furniture.
•
In a crowd of people or near a building or obstacle.
•
In a location exposed to the magnetic field, static
electricity or radio wave interference from radio
communication equipment using the same frequency
band (2.4 GHz) as the AV receiver, such as a 2.4 GHz
wireless LAN device (IEEE802.11b/g/n) or microwave
oven.
•
If you live in a heavily populated residential area
(apartment, townhouse, etc.) and if your neighborʼs
microwave oven is placed near your AV receiver, you
may experience radio wave interference. If this occurs,
move your AV receiver to a different place.
When the microwave oven is not in use, there will be no
radio wave interference.
■ Radio Wave Reflections
The radio waves received by the AV receiver include the
radio wave coming directly from the devices and waves
coming from various directions due to reflections by walls,
furniture and building (reflected waves). The reflected
waves (due to obstacles and reflecting objects) further
produce a variety of reflected waves as well as variation
in reception condition depending on locations. If the audio
cannot be received properly due to this phenomenon, try
moving the location of the wireless LAN device a little.
Also note that audio may be interrupted due to the
reflected waves when a person crosses or approaches
the space between the AV receiver and the wireless LAN
device.
•
We assume no responsibility whatsoever for any
damages resulting from the use of this apparatus
except in the cases deemed acceptable under the
applicable laws and regulations.
•
Operation in all environment is not guaranteed for
wireless LAN. The communication may not be possible
or have desirable communication speed.
■ Precautions
•
Do not use this apparatus near an electronic device
handling high-accuracy controls or weak signals. Doing
so may cause an accident due to a malfunction of the
device.
•
Do not use this apparatus in use prohibited location
such as an aircraft equipment or a hospital. Doing so
may cause an accident due to a malfunction of an
electronic device or an electro-medical apparatus.
Follow the instructions of the medical facilities.
Electronic device which requires cautions
Hearing aid, pace maker, other medical electronic devices,
fire alarm, automatic door, and other automatic control
device.
When using a pace maker or other medical electronic
devices, confirm with the medical electronic device maker
or dealer for the effect of the radio wave.
