Caution:

Turn off all other equipment before making this connection.

Set the TV at low volume before turning on the system.

This unit supports HDMI which enables ARC (Audio Return Channel).

To enable ARC make sure to use High Speed HDMI cable (ver 1.4 with ARC).

This unit can be operated (power on/off or volume up/down) via a TV or similar component which supports HDMI CEC (Consumer Electronics Control). If this does not work, it does not mean this system is faulty. Refer to the operation manual of the respective component on how to activate the CEC.

Example: Go to the Menu of the component to search and enable the CEC. Different brands may have different naming for the CEC. For Sharp LCD TV, it is named as AQUOS LINK.

To listen to the sound from this system, you will need to adjust settings within the TV Menu. For details, refer to the operation manual of the TV.

If you are unable to select an external speaker setting from the TV menu (for Sharp LCD TV, it is named as AQUOS AUDIO SP), turn the CEC OFF and ON again.

Make sure the LCD TV Audio output setting is set to PCM, not other formats such as Dolby Digital, DTS, etc.
