Note
*1	Do not connect the AV receiver’s USB port to a USB port on your computer. Music on your computer cannot be played through the
	AV receiver in this way.
*2	Connect a turntable (MM) that has a built-in phono preamp to TV/CD IN, or connect it to PHONO IN with the phono preamp turned
	off. If your turntable (MM) doesn’t have a phono preamp, connect it to PHONO IN. If your turntable has a moving coil (MC) type
	cartridge, you’ll need a commercially available MC head amp or MC transformer to connect to PHONO IN. See your turntable’s
	manual for details.
	If your turntable has a ground wire, connect it to the AV receiver’s GND screw. With some turntables, connecting the ground wire
	may produce an audible hum. If this happens, disconnect it.
*3	To select the multichannel input, select the BD/DVD input selector and see “Audio Selector” (➔ page 55). To adjust the
	subwoofer sensitivity for the multichannel input, see “Subwoofer Input Sensitivity” (➔ page 45).
*4	When you connect your personal computer to PC IN and select the PC input selector, the video of the personal computer is output
	from the HDMI outputs. However, if you have assigned the HDMI inputs to the PC input selector, the AV receiver will output

signals received from the HDMI inputs instead of signals from PC IN. To have the signals output from PC IN, select “- - - - -” for “PC” in the “HDMI Input” setting (➔ page 44).

•With connection C, you can enjoy Dolby Digital and DTS. (To record or listen the audio in Zone 2 as well, use C and F.)

•With connection F, you can listen to and record audio from external components while you are in Zone 2.

•With connection F, if your Blu-ray Disc/DVD player has both the main stereo and multichannel outputs, be sure to connect to the main stereo.
