About AV Connections

•Before making any AV connections, read the manuals supplied with your other AV compo- nents.

•Don’t connect the power cord until you’ve completed and double-checked all AV connec- tions.

Optical Digital Jacks

The HTX-22HDX’s optical digital jacks have shutter-type covers that open when an optical plug is inserted and close when it’s removed. Push plugs in all the way.

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

RCA Connection Color Coding

RCA 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 connect left-channel audio inputs and outputs (typically labeled “L”).

Left (white)	Analog audio	Left (white)
Right (red)		Right (red)

•Push plugs in all the way to make good connections (loose connections can cause noise or malfunctions).

Right!

Wrong!

•To prevent interference, keep audio and video cables away from power cords and speaker cables.
