Refer to “Operating other equipment” ( ➜ page 38).
≥ You can also connect to the AUX terminals on the main unit. The TV AUDIO IN and AUX terminals are for external audio input.
COMPONENT VIDEO OUT

) and luminance signal (Y) separately in
order to achieve high fidelity in reproducing colors.
≥ The description of the component video input terminals depends on the television or monitor (e.g. Y/P
B /P R , Y/B-Y/R-Y, Y/C B /C R ).
Connect to terminals of the same color.
