Note for connecting the speaker cords to the receiver

If the speaker cords are not properly connected, the receiver may be fatally damaged.

To avoid the possibility of damage, follow the instructions below.

1Do not hook up the speaker cords while the receiver power is turned on.

Be sure to turn off the power first. After turning off the power, it is recommended that you disconnect the power cord for greater safety.

2Do not allow the stripped end of a speaker cord to come into contact with any part of the rear panel or the adjacent speaker terminal. Before inserting a stripped speaker cord into a speaker terminal, twist the wires tightly together to prevent contact between any single strand from the cord and the rear panel or the adjacent speaker terminal on the receiver.

Remove about 10 mm of insulation at the end of the cord, then twist the exposed wires. Connect the stripped ends of the cords to the terminals, taking care to avoid contact between the cords.

Make sure the cords are firmly connected to the speaker and receiver terminals.
