When you start playback on a component connected via , if the AV receiver is in Standby, it will turn on and select that component as the input source automatically. Similarly, when the AV receiver is set to Standby, all components

connected via will also enter Standby. This function will not work if a component’s power cord is connected to the AV receiver’s AC OUTLET.
