Before Making Any Connections

Optical Digital Output

RCA Connection Color Coding

RCA-type connections are usually color coded: red and white. Use red plugs to connect right-channel audio inputs and outputs (typically labeled “R”). Use white plugs to con- nect left-channel audio inputs and outputs (typically labeled “L”).

The CD Receiver’s optical digital output has a shutter-type cover that opens when an optical plug is inserted and closes when it’s removed. Push a plug in all the way.

Caution: To prevent shutter damage, hold the optical plug straight when inserting and removing.
