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 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
Both video and sound signals can be
transmitted simultaneously with one cable. If
connecting the player and the TV via this
