Rear panel facilities

Here is an explanation of the terminals found on the rear of the HT-R490 and how they are used. Before connecting your audio and video components, be sure to read this section carefully and then proceed to the explanations on how to connect each individual component (refer to page 12).

Be sure to always refer to the instructions that came with the component that you are connecting.

Do not plug in the power cord until all connections have been made.

For input jacks, red connectors (marked R) are used for the right channel, white connectors (marked L) are used for the left channel, and yellow connectors (marked VIDEO) are used for video connections.

Insert all plugs and connectors securely. Improper connections can result in noise, poor performance, or damage to the equipment.

Improper connection

Inserted completely

Do not bind audio/video connection cables with power cords and speaker cables. Doing so may adversely effect the picture and sound quality.
