Connecting the Power Cord

Note

Before connecting the power cord, connect all of your speak- ers and AV components.

Turning on the AV controller may cause a momentary power surge that might interfere with other electrical equipment on the same circuit. If this is a problem, plug the AV controller into a different branch circuit.

Do not use a power cord other than the one supplied with the AV controller. The supplied power cord is designed exclusively for use with the AV controller and should not be used with any other equipment.

Never disconnect the power cord from the AV controller while the other end is still plugged into a wall outlet. Doing so may cause an electric shock. Always disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet first, and then the AV controller.
