Getting Started

When a component you wish to connect to the system has an HDMI

(OUT) jack

You can connect a component that has an HDMI (OUT) jack such as a set-top box/digital satellite

receiver or PLAYSTATION®3, etc., with an HDMI cable. An HDMI cable connection can send both

video and audio signals. By connecting the system and the component using an HDMI cable, you can

enjoy high-quality digital picture and sound via the HDMI (IN 1) or HDMI (IN 2) jack.

• Video signals from the HDMI (IN 1/2) jacks are sent to the HDMI (OUT) jack only when the “HDMI1” or

“HDMI2” function is selected.

• To send an audio signal from the HDMI (IN 1/2) jacks to the HDMI (OUT) jack, you may need to change the audio

output setting. For details, see [Audio Output] in [Audio Settings] (page 62).

• You can change the audio input of a component that is connected to the HDMI (IN 1) jack to the TV (DIGITAL IN

OPTICAL) jack. For details, see [HDMI1 Audio Input mode] in [HDMI Settings] (page 63). (European models

only.)
