CONTROL A1 hookup
• If you have a CONTROL A1 compatible Sony
CD player, tape deck, or MD deck
Use a CONTROL A1 cord (not supplied) to connect the
CONTROL A1
jack on the CD player, tape deck, or
MD deck to the CONTROL A1
jack on the receiver.
Refer “CONTROL-A1
Control System” on page 45
and the operating instructions supplied with your CD
player, tape deck, or MD deck for details.
Note
If you make CONTROL A1 connections from the receiver to
an MD deck that is also connected to a computer, do not
operate the receiver while using the “Sony MD Editor”
software. This may cause a malfunction.
• If you have a Sony CD changer with a
COMMAND MODE selector
If your CD changer’s COMMAND MODE selector can
be set to CD 1, CD 2, or CD 3, be sure to set the
command mode to “CD 1” and connect the changer to
the CD jacks on the receiver.
If, however, you have a Sony CD changer with VIDEO
OUT jacks, set the command mode to “CD 2” and
connect the changer to the VIDEO IN jacks on the
receiver.
AUX AUDIO IN hookup
• If you have an individual audio component
(except PHONO)
Use the audio cords to connect the LINE OUT jacks on
the CD player, tape deck, or MD deck to the AUX
AUDIO IN jack on the receiver so that you can listen to
stereo sources in surround sound.
Setting the VOLTAGE SELECTOR (Models of
area code E2, E3 only)
Check that the voltage selector on the rear panel of the
player is set to the local power line voltage. If not, set the
selector to the correct position using a screwdriver before
connecting the AC power cord to a wall outlet.
Connecting the AC power cord
Before connecting the AC power cord of this receiver to a
wall outlet:
• Connect the speaker system to the receiver (see page
14).
Connect the AC power cord(s) of your audio/video
components to a wall outlet.
If you connect other audio/video components to the AC
OUTLET(s) on the receiver, the receiver will supply power
to the connected component(s), allowing you to turn the
whole system on or off when you turn the receiver on or
off. (except models of area code CN)
Caution
Make sure that the total power consumption of the component(s)
connected to the receiver’s AC OUTLET(s) does not exceed the
wattage stated on the rear panel. Do not connect high-wattage
electrical home appliances such as electric irons, fans, or TVs to
this outlet. (except models of area code CN)
Note
If the AC power cord is disconnected for about one week, the
receiver’s entire memory will be cleared and the demonstration
will start.
