Note
*1	When USB input is selected, you can input video signals from the AUX INPUT VIDEO jack. Video signals input from AUX
	INPUT VIDEO will be output from the MONITOR OUT jack.
*2	Do not connect the AV receiver’s USB port to a USB port on your computer. Music on your computer cannot be played through the
	AV receiver in this way.
*3	Connect a turntable (MM) that has a phono preamp built-in. If your turntable (MM) doesn’t have it, you’ll need a commercially
	available phono preamp.

If your turntable has a moving coil (MC) type cartridge, you’ll need a commercially available MC head amp or MC transformer as well as a phono preamp. See your turntable’s manual for details.
