When connecting ONKYO products, it is necessary to attach the z cable to be able to use the remote control of the main component to control the entire system. 1.To use this DVD player with an amplifier (or receiver), cassette tape deck and tuner with the z symbol, insert the remote control

cable plugs into the REMOTE CONTROL jacks.

2.As the exact connection sequence of the z cable is unimportant, you can connect from the amplifier (or receiver) to either the tuner, the cassette tape deck or to the compact disc player.

3.If using an z equipped ONKYO amplifier (or receiver), to operate correctly, the remote control must face towards the remote control sensor of the amplifier (or receiver).

Notes:

The upper and lower z remote control jacks have the same function.

Remote control operation is not possible when only the remote control cable is connected — the audio connection cables must also be connected.

An z remote control cable equipped with a 1/8" (3.5mm) diameter miniature two-conductor phone plug is included with the DV-S501 and with every tuner, compact disc player or cassette tape deck with the z symbol.
