Additional information
Important information
regarding the HDMI
connection
There are cases where you may not be able to
route HDMI signals through this receiver (this
depends on the HDMI-equipped component
you are connecting-check with the manufac-
turer for HDMI compatibility information).
If you aren’t receiving HDMI signals properly
through this receiver (from your component),
please try one of the following configurations
when connecting up.
Configuration A
Use component video cables to connect the
video output of your HDMI-equipped compo-
nent to the receiver’s component video input.
The receiver can then convert the analog com-
ponent video signal to a digital HDMI signal for
transmission to the display. For this configu-
ration, use the most convenient connection
(digital is recommended) for sending audio to
the receiver. See the operating instructions for
more on audio connections.
Note
! The picture quality will change slightly during
conversion.
Configuration B
Connect your HDMI-equipped component
directly to the display using an HDMI cable.
Then use the most convenient connection
(digital is recommended) for sending audio
to the receiver. See the operating instruc-
tions for more on audio connections. Set the
display volume to minimum when using this
configuration.
Note
! If your display only has one HDMI terminal,
you can only receive HDMI video from the
connected component.
! Depending on the component, audio output
may be limited to the number of channels
available from the connected display unit (for
example audio output is reduced to 2 channels
for a monitor with stereo audio limitations).
! If you want to switch the input function, you’ll
have to switch functions on both the receiver
and your display unit.
! Since the sound is muted on the display when
using the HDMI connection, you must adjust
the volume on the display every time you
switch input functions.
Cleaning the unit
! Use a polishing cloth or dry cloth to wipe off
dust and dirt.
! When the surface is dirty, wipe with a soft
cloth dipped in some neutral cleanser diluted
five or six times with water, and wrung out
well, and then wipe again with a dry cloth. Do
not use furniture wax or cleansers.
! Never use thinners, benzene, insecticide
sprays or other chemicals on or near this unit,
since these will corrode the surface.
