Note

1The multichannel input can only be used when DVD 5.1ch is selected (see page 36).

2If you’ve already connected your TV to the TV/SAT inputs, simply choose another input. However, to receive a signal, you’ll need to press the input select button for the input you connected the set-top box to.

3See Using the component video jacks on page 16 if your set-top box also has a component video output.

4If your set-top box only has a coaxial digital output, you can connect it to the coaxial input on this receiver using a coaxial digital audio cable. When you set up the receiver you’ll need to tell the receiver which input you connected the set-top box to (see The Input Assign menu on page 64).
