About the supplied remote control  
Compared to standard remote controls, the remote control supplied with this receiver has several operation  
modes. These modes enable the remote control to control other audio/video components. In order to  
effectively use the remote control it is important to read the operating instructions and obtain a proper  
understanding of the remote control and how to switch its operation modes (etc.).  
Using the remote control without completely understanding its design and how to switch the operation modes  
may result in incorrect operations.

Setting up the system  
Make connections as shown in the following pages.  
When connecting the related system components, be sure  
to also refer to the instruction manuals supplied with the  
components you are connecting.  
Do not connect the power cord to a wall outlet until all  
connections are completed.  
Input mode settings  
CD/DVD, VIDEO2, VIDEO3 and DVD/6ch inputs each include jacks  
for digital audio input and analog audio input.  
You must select beforehand which type of input is to be used for each  
connected component.  
9
The initial factory settings for audio signal playback (CD/DVD,  
DVD/6ch) and (VIDEO2, VIDEO3) are digital and analog respec-  
tively.  
To use the analog audio input for playback instead (if, for example, you  
have connected a VCR to the VIDEO2 or VIDEO3 input), you must set  
the input mode for the corresponding input to the analog mode.  
After completing connections and turning on the receiver, follow the  
steps below.  
DTS disclaimer clause  
DTS Digital Surround™ is a discrete 5.1 channel digital audio format  
available on CD, LD, and DVD software which consequently cannot be  
decoded and played back inside most CD, LD, or DVD players. For this  
reason, when DTS-encoded software is played back through the analog  
outputs of the CD, LD, or DVD player, excessive noise will be exhibited.  
To avoid possible damage to the audio system, proper precautions  
should be taken by the consumer if the analog outputs are connected  
directly to an amplification system. To enjoy DTS Digital Surround™  
playback, an external 5.1 channel DTS Digital Surround™ decoder  
system must be connected to the digital output (S/P DIF, AES/EBU, or  
TosLink) of the CD, LD or DVD player.

Notes  
1. Be sure to insert all connection cords securely. If their connections are  
imperfect, the sound may not be produced or noise may interfere.  
2. Be sure to remove the power cord from the AC outlet before plugging or  
unplugginganyconnectioncords.Plugging/unpluggingconnectioncords  
without disconnecting the power cord can cause malfunctions and may  
damage the unit.  
INPUT MODE  
1 Use the INPUT SELECTOR knob to select CD/DVD, VIDEO2,  
VIDEO3 or DVD/6ch.  
3. Do not connect power cords from components whose power consump-  
tion is larger than what is indicated on the AC outlet at the rear of this unit.  
2 Press the INPUT MODE key.  
Analog connections  
Each press switches the setting as follows:  
Audio connections are made using RCA pin cords. These cables transfer  
stereo audio signal in an “analog” form. This means the audio signal  
corresponds to the actual audio of two channels. These cables usually have  
2 plugs each end, one red for the right channel and one white for the left  
channel. These cables are usually packed together with the source unit, or  
are available at your local electronics retailer.

Auto sound:  
In the auto sound mode (AUTO SOUND indicator lights), the receiver  
selects the listening mode automatically during playback to match the  
type of input signal (Dolby Digital, PCM, DTS ) and the speaker setting.  
The initial factory setting is auto sound on.  
To keep the receiver set to the currently selected listening mode, use  
the INPUT MODE key to select “D-MANUAL” (manual sound).  
However, even when this setting is selected, there may be cases in  
which the listening mode is selected automatically to match a Dolby  
Digital source signal depending on the combination of listening mode  
and source signal.  
If the INPUT MODE key is pressed quickly, sound may not be  
produced.
