Connecting the AV receiver—Continued

Connecting Components

Step 1: Make sure that each Integra component is connected to the AV receiver with an analog

audio cable (connection a in the hookup examples) (see pages 26 to 38).

Step 2: Make the connection.

Step 3: If you’re using an MD, CDR, or RI Dock, change the input display (see page 51).

With (Remote Interactive), you can use the follow- ing special functions:

Auto Power On/Standby

When you start playback on a component connected

via , if the AV receiver is on Standby, it will auto- matically turn on and select that component as the input source. Similarly, when the AV receiver is set

to Standby, all components connected via will also go on Standby.

Direct Change

When playback is started on a component connected

via , the AV receiver automatically selects that component as the input source. If your DVD player is connected to the AV receiver’s multichannel DVD input, you’ll need to press the [Multi CH] button to hear all channels (see page 55), as the Direct Change function only selects the FRONT DVD IN jacks.

Remote Control

You can use the AV receiver’s remote controller to

control your other -capable Integra components, pointing the remote controller at the AV receiver’s remote control sensor instead of the component. You must enter the appropriate remote control code first (see page 91).

Notes:

Use only cables for connections. cables are supplied with Integra players (DVD, CD, etc.).

Some components have two jacks. You can con- nect either one to the AV receiver. The other jack is for

connecting additional -capable components.

Connect only Integra components to jacks. Con- necting other manufacturer’s components may cause a malfunction.

Some components may not support all functions. Refer to the manuals supplied with your other Integra components.

If you connect an Integra MD recorder, CD recorder, or an Onkyo RI DOCK, you must change the input display (see page 51).

Connecting the Power Cord

Notes:

Before connecting the power cord, connect all of your speakers and AV components.

Turning on the AV receiver may cause a momentary power surge that might interfere with other electrical equipment on the same circuit. If this is a problem, plug the AV receiver into a different branch circuit.

Do not use a power cord other than the one supplied with the AV receiver. The supplied power cord is designed exclusively for use with the AV receiver and should not be used with any other equipment.

Never disconnect the power cord from the AV receiver while the other end is still plugged into a wall outlet. Doing so may cause an electric shock. Always discon- nect the power cord from the wall outlet first, and then the AV receiver.

To AC wall outlet

1Connect the supplied power cord to the AV receiver’s AC INLET.

2Plug the power cord into an AC wall outlet.
