video connection and are used to connect to
the composite video terminals. The yellow
plugs distinguish them from cables for audio.
Note
1 • Use a High Speed HDMI
®
cable. If HDMI cable other than a High Speed HDMI
®
cable is used, it may not work properly.
• When an HDMI cable with a built-in equalizer is connected, it may not operate properly.
2 Signal transfer is only possible when connected to a compatible component.
3 • HDMI format digital audio transmissions require a longer time to be recognized. Due to this, interruption in the audio may
occur when switching between audio formats or beginning playback.
• Turning on/off the device connected to this unit's HDMI OUT terminal during playback, or disconnecting/connecting the
HDMI cable during playback, may cause noise or interrupted audio.
4 • 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.
