Connections Do not plug the power cord into the AC outlet until all connections are completed.

Connecting to the TV (IPM system)

Use the cable included in the package for connection. Connect the stereo audio connection cable as follows:

To TV’s audio output L ch. jack...white

white...PHC-5’s TV input L ch. jack

To TV’s audio output R ch. jack...red

red...PHC-5’s TV input R ch. jack

Plug the cables securely. Incomplete connection may cause noise or malfunction.

Refer to the manual for your TV or VCR for more information on AV output connections.

CAUTION

Be sure to connect fixed output to the “Fixed” audio output jacks. For variable output, refer to the manual for your TV to turn the internal speakers off.

Lower the volume level on the PHC-5 before you change an input source using the INPUT SELECTOR, since the input level of a device connected to the VIDEO or AUX input jacks may be different from the input level of the TV and selecting a different input source may produce a loud sound.

Some TVs may output audio signals even if the power is turned off. If such a TV is connected to a VCR that is programmed for recording, the IPM system may be enabled. To make sure that the IPM system is disabled, turn off the POWER switch on the PHC-5 or connect the TV output to the VIDEO or AUX input jacks. Refer to the “Connecting to VIDEO/AUX INPUT jacks” section on the next page.

If the TV audio output is connected to the unit’s TV in jacks, turning on (off) the power to the TV will automatically turn on (off) the power to the unit. This is called the “IPM system.”
