To avoid short-circuiting the speakers Short-circuiting of the speakers may damage the receiver. To prevent this, be sure to follow these precautions when connecting the speakers. Make sure the bare wire of each speaker cord does not touch another speaker terminal or the bare wire of another speaker cord.
Examples of poor conditions of the speaker cord
Stripped speaker cord is touching Stripped cords are touching each other due to another speaker terminal. excessive removal of insulation.
After connecting all the components, speakers, and AC power cord (mains lead), output a test tone to check that all the speakers are connected correctly. For details on outputting a test tone, see page 30. If no sound is heard from a speaker while outputting a test tone, or a test tone is output from a speaker other than the one currently displayed on the front panel display, the speaker may be short-circuited. If this happens, check the speaker connection again.
Notes • Be sure to match the speaker cord to the appropriate terminal on the components: 3 to 3, and # to #. If the cords are reversed, the sound will be distorted and will lack bass. • If you use front speakers with low maximum input rating, adjust the volume carefully to avoid excessive output on the speakers. • When connecting the stripped ends of the speaker cords, make sure the ends do not touch each other or neighboring terminals.

If you connect a digital satellite receiver with the OPTICAL OUT jack The digital satellite receiver can be connected to the TV/SAT (OPTICAL IN) jack instead of the ANALOG IN L/R jacks of the receiver. The receiver can accept both the digital and analog signals. Digital signals have priority over analog signals. If the digital signal ceases, the analog signal will be processed after 2 seconds.
If you connect a digital satellite receiver without the OPTICAL OUT jack Connect the digital satellite receiver to the S VIDEO IN and ANALOG IN L/R jacks only of the receiver.
If you connect a component with the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks (Y, PB/CB,
PR/CR) Connect the component to the COMPONENT VIDEO IN jacks (Y, PB/CB, PR/CR) of the receiver.
Connecting the AC Power Cord (mains lead) Before connecting the AC power cord (mains lead) of this receiver to a wall outlet (mains), connect the speakers to the receiver (see page 21). Connect the AC power cord (mains lead) of your TV/video components to a wall outlet (mains).
