Having the OSR Mark

If you also have an Optimus professional series CD player, VCR, or cassette deck with the OSR mark, you can connect its CONTROL IN jack to the receiver so you can control all of your equipment with a single remote control. You can also use the other component’s remote control by pointing it at the receiver’s front panel.

1.Connect each component to the receiver as shown in “Connecting Pro- gram Sources.”

Note: You must connect the audio cables between the receiver and the other audio accessory to use your receiver’s remote control to control the accessory.

2.Connect the cable supplied with the CD player, VCR, or cassette deck between the receiver’s CONTROL OUT jack and the other component’s

CONTROL IN jack.

3.When you want to control more than one other component using the receiver’s remote control, daisy-chain the CONTROL OUT and CONTROL IN connections as shown.

Installing the

Remote Control’s Batteries

The remote control uses two AA batteries (not included). For the longest battery life, we recommend alkaline batteries (such as RadioShack Cat. No. 23-557).

1. Press and remove the battery compartment cover.

Cautions:

Use only fresh batteries of the recom- mended size and type.

Always remove old or weak batteries. Batteries can leak chemicals that can damage electronic circuits.

Note: If the remote’s range is reduced, replace the batteries immediately.

2.Place two fresh AA batteries in the compartment as indicated by the polarity symbols (+ and –) marked in the compartment.

3.Replace the battery compartment cover.
