CONNECTIONS

Before Connecting Components

CAUTION

Never connect this unit and other components to mains power until all connections between components have been completed.

Be sure all connections are made correctly, that is to say L (left) to L, R (right) to R, “+” to “+” and “–” to “–”. Some components require different connection methods and have different terminal names. Refer to the instructions for each component to be connected to this unit.

When you connect other YAMAHA audio components (such as a tape deck, MD recorder and CD player or changer), connect it to the terminals with the same number labels as !, #, $ etc. YAMAHA applies this labeling system to all its products.

Use RCA-type pin plug cables for connecting audio/video components with the exception described later.

The input and output terminals for pin plugs can be distinguished as follows:

Yellow	video signals (composite)	V	V
White	analog audio signals for the left channel	L	L
Red	analog audio signals for the right channel	R	R
	coaxial digital signals	C	C

PREPARATION

After completing all connections, check them again to make sure they are correct.
