Setting up the system

Make connections as shown in the following pages. When connecting the related system components, be sure to refer to the instruction manuals supplied with the components you are connecting.

Do not connect the power cord to a wall outlet until all connections are completed.

Notes

1.Be sure to insert all connection cords securely. If their connections are imperfect, the sound may not be produced or there will be noise interference.

2.Be sure to remove the power cord from the AC outlet before plugging or unplugging any connection cords. Plugging/unplugging connection cords without disconnecting the power cord can cause malfunctions and may damage the unit.

3.Do not connect power cords from components whose power consumption is larger than what is indicated on the AC outlet at the rear of this unit.

Analog connections

Audio connections are made using RCA pin cords. These cables transfer stereo audio signal in an “analog” form. This means the audio signal corresponds to the actual audio of two channels. These cables usually have 2 plugs at each end, red for the right channel and white for the left channel. These cables are usually packed together with the source unit, or are available at your local electronics retailer.

Microcomputer malfunction

If operation is not possible or an erroneous display appears, even though all connections have been made properly, reset the

microcomputer by referring to “In case of difficulty”.

CAUTION

Install the equipment so that the power outlet is easily accessible and, in case of emergency, immediately unplug the power cord from the power outlet.

The power in this equipment will not be completely cut off from the AC wall outlet when the main switch is turned OFF.
