Connecting the Power Cord of Another Component

The AV receiver has an AC outlet on its rear panel for connecting the power cord of another AV component. The other component’s power switch can then be left in the ON position so that it turns on or off when the AV receiver is set to On or Standby.

Caution:

• Make sure that the capacity of the component that you connect to the AC OUTLET does not exceed the stated capacity (e.g., 100 W).

Notes:

Onkyo components with jacks should be con- nected directly to wall outlets, not the AV

receiver’s AC OUTLET.

• The socket type and capacity will depend on the country in which you purchased the AV receiver.
