Connecting your equipment

CAUTION

These speaker terminals carry HAZARDOUS LIVE voltage. To prevent the risk of electric shock when connecting or disconnecting the speaker cables, disconnect the power cord before touching any uninsulated parts.

Make sure that all the bare speaker wire is twisted together and inserted fully into the speaker terminal. If any of the bare speaker wire touches the back panel it may cause the power to cut off as a safety measure.

Connect the surround back or front height speakers

Connect the PRE OUT outputs of the unit and additional amplifier to add a surround back or front height speaker.

If the surround back speaker or the front height speaker is connected, set the Pre Out setting (see The Pre Out Setting on page 40).

Making cable connections

Make sure not to bend the cables over the top of this unit (as shown in the illustration). If this happens, the magnetic field produced by the transformers in this unit may cause a humming noise from the speakers.

Important

Before making or changing connections, switch off the power and disconnect the power cord from the AC outlet.

Before unplugging the power cord, switch the power into standby.
