Replacement and mounting of an AC plug on the power supply cord of this unit should be performed only by qualified

service personnel.

IMPORTANT: THE MOULDED PLUG

This appliance is supplied with a moulded three pin mains plug for your safety and convenience. A 10 amp fuse is fitted in this plug. Should

BS1362.

Check for the ASTA mark or the BSI mark on the body of the fuse.

If the plug contains a removable fuse cover, you must ensure that it is refitted when the fuse is replaced. If you lose the fuse cover the plug

must not be used until a replacement cover is obtained. A replacement fuse cover can be obtained from your local dealer.

If the fitted moulded plug is unsuitable for your socket outlet, then the fuse shall be removed and the plug cut off and disposed of

safely. There is a danger of severe electrical shock if the cut off plug is inserted into any 13 amp socket.

If a new plug is to be fitted, please observe the wiring code as shown below. If in any doubt, please consult a qualified electrician.

IMPORTANT: The wires in this mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

Blue : Neutral Brown : Live

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in

your plug, proceed as follows;

The wire which is coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the

letter N or coloured BLACK.

The wire which is coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the

letter L or coloured RED.

How to replace the fuse: Open the fuse compartment with a screwdriver and replace the fuse.

supplied accessories:

• Remote control

• AAA size IEC R03 dry cell batteries (to

confirm system operation) x2

•AM loop antenna

•FM wire antenna

•Power cord

• Warranty card

Loading the batteries

CAUTION

Incorrect use of batteries may result in such

hazards as leakage and bursting. Observe the

following precautions:

• Never use new and old batteries together.

• Insert the plus and minus sides of the

batteries properly according to the marks

in the battery case.

• Batteries with the same shape may have

different voltages. Do not use different

batteries together.

• When disposing of used batteries, please

comply with governmental regulations or

environmental public instruction’s rules

that apply in your country or area.

• Do not use or store batteries in direct

sunlight or other excessively hot place,

such as inside a car or near a heater. This

can cause batteries to leak, overheat,

explode or catch fire. It can also reduce the

life or performance of batteries.

Installing the receiver

• When installing this unit, make sure to put

it on a level and stable surface.

Don’t install it on the following places:

– on a color TV (the screen may distort)

– near a cassette deck (or close to a device

that gives off a magnetic field). This may

interfere with the sound.

– in direct sunlight

– in damp or wet areas

– in extremely hot or cold areas

– in places where there is vibration or other

movement

– in places that are very dusty

– in places that have hot fumes or oils (such

as a kitchen)

Ventilation

When installing this unit, make sure to leave

space around the unit for ventilation to improve

heat dispersal (at least 60 cm at the top). If

not enough space is provided between the

unit and walls or other equipment, heat will

build up inside, interfering with performance

and/or causing malfunctions.

Slot and openings in the cabinet are provided

for ventilation and to protect the equipment

from overheating. To prevent fire hazard, do

not place anything directly on top of the unit,

make sure the openings are never blocked or

covered with items (such as newspapers,

table-cloths and curtains), and do not operate

the equipment on thick carpet or a bed.

Chapter 3:

Connecting your equipment

Placing the speakers

By connecting the left and right front speakers

(L/R), the center speaker (C), the left and right

surround speakers (SL/SR), and the subwoofer

(SW), a 5.1 ch surround system can be

enjoyed.

To achieve the best possible surround sound,

install your speakers as shown below.

Hints on the speaker placement

Where you put your speakers in the room has a

big effect on the quality of the sound. The

following guidelines should help you to get the

best sound from your system.

• The subwoofer can be placed on the floor.

Ideally, the other speakers should be at

about ear-level when you’re listening to

them. Putting the speakers on the floor

(except the subwoofer), or mounting them

very high on a wall is not recommended.

• For the best stereo effect, place the front

speakers 2 m to 3 m apart, at equal

distance from the TV.

• If you’re going to place speakers around

your CRT TV, use shielded speakers or

place the speakers at a sufficient distance

from your CRT TV.

• If you’re using a center speaker, place the

front speakers at a wider angle. If not,

place them at a narrower angle.

• Place the center speaker above or below

the TV so that the sound of the center

channel is localized at the TV screen. Also,

make sure the center speaker does not

cross the line formed by the leading edge

of the front left and right speakers.

• It is best to angle the speakers towards the

listening position. The angle depends on

the size of the room. Use less of an angle

for bigger rooms.

• Surround speakers should be positioned

60 cm to 90 cm higher than your ears and

titled slight downward. Make sure the

speakers don’t face each other. For DVD-

Audio, the speakers should be more

directly behind the listener than for home

theater playback.

• Try not to place the surround speakers

farther away from the listening position

than the front and center speakers. Doing

so can weaken the surround sound effect.

CAUTION

• Make sure that all speakers are securely

installed. This not only improves sound

quality, but also reduces the risk of

damage or injury resulting from speakers

being knocked over or falling in the event of

external shocks such as earthquakes.

Connecting the speakers

The receiver will work with just two stereo

speakers (the front speakers in the diagram)

but using at least three speakers is

recommended, and a complete setup is best

for surround sound.

Make sure you connect the speaker on the

right to the right (R) terminal and the speaker

on the left to the left (L) terminal. Also make

sure the positive and negative (+/–) terminals

on the receiver match those on the speakers.

If you’re not using a subwoofer, change the

front speaker setting (see Speaker setting on

page 33) to LARGE.

CAUTION

• These speaker terminals carry

HAZARDOUS LIVE voltage. To prevent

the risk of electric shock when connecting

or disconnecting the speaker cables,

disconnect the power cord before touching

any uninsulated parts.

• Make sure that all the bare speaker wire is

twisted together and inserted fully into the

speaker terminal. If any of the bare speaker

wire touches the back panel it may cause

the power to cut off as a safety measure.

Be sure to complete all connections before

connecting this unit to the AC power source.

Bare wire connections

Front speaker terminals:

1 Twist exposed wire strands together.

2 Loosen terminal and insert exposed wire.

3 Tighten terminal.

Center and surround speaker terminals:

1 Twist exposed wire strands together.

2 Push open the tabs and insert exposed wire.

3 Release the tabs.

Making cable connections

Make sure not to bend the cables over the top

of this unit (as shown in the illustration). If this

happens, the magnetic field produced by the

transformers in this unit may cause a

humming noise from the speakers.

Important

• Before making or changing any connections,

switch off the power and disconnect the power

cord from the AC outlet.

• Before unplugging the power cord, switch

the power into standby.

HDMI cables

The HDMI cables transfers uncompressed

digital video.

Be careful to connect the terminal in the

proper direction.

About HDMI

HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface)

was developed to provide the technologies of

High Bandwidth Digital Content Protection

(HDCP) as well as Digital Visual Interface (DVI)

in one specification. HDCP is used to protect

digital content transmitted and received by

DVI-compliant displays.

HDMI has the capability to support standard,

enhanced, or high-definition video plus

standard to multi-channel surround-sound

audio. HDMI features include uncompressed

digital video, a bandwidth of up to 2.2

gigabytes per second (with HDTV signals),

one connector (instead of several cables and

connectors), and communication between

the AV source and AV devices such as DTVs.

Even if you connect the playback components

with an HDMI cable, no sound will come out

of the speaker connected to this receiver. An

audio cable connection is also needed for

this.

HDMI, the HDMI Logo and High-Definition

Multimedia Interface are trademarks or

registered trademarks of HDMI Licensing, LLC

in the United States and other countries.

Analog audio cables

Use stereo RCA phono cables to connect

analog audio components. These cables are

typically red and white, and you should

connect the red plugs to R (right) terminals

and white plugs to L (left) terminals.

Note

1 If the video signal does not appear on your TV, try adjusting the resolution settings on your component or display. Note that

some components (such as video game units) have resolutions that may not be displayed. In this case, use a (analog)

composite connection.

Digital audio cables

Commercially available coaxial digital audio

cables or optical cables should be used to

connect digital components to this receiver.

1

This connection is required to listen to the

multi-channel digital sounds with this receiver.

Video cables

Standard RCA video cables

These cables are the most common type of

video connection and are used to connect to

the composite video terminals. The yellow

plugs distinguish them from cables for audio.

Component video cables

Use component video cables to get the best

possible color reproduction of your video

source. The color signal of the TV is divided into

the luminance (Y) signal and the color (P

B and

P

R) signals and then output. In this way,

interference between the signals is avoided.

About video outputs connection

This receiver is not loaded with a video

converter. When you use component video

cables or HDMI cables for connecting to the

input device, the same cables should be used

for connecting to the TV.

The signals input from the analog (composite

and component) video inputs of this unit will

not be output from the HDMI OUT.

Note

1 • When connecting optical cables, be careful when inserting the plug not to damage the shutter protecting the optical socket.

• When storing optical cable, coil loosely. The cable may be damaged if bent around sharp corners.

• You can also use a standard RCA video cable for coaxial digital connections.
