Making system connections
The power to components connected tq the
SWITCHED outlet is turned on and off
using the POWER switch (or the SYSTEM .
switch on models other than USA and
Canadian models) on the front panel and
remote control.
NOTE:
•
The shape, number and total capacity of
the AC outlets may differ according to
the model and the area where the unit is
purchased. 13e careful that other compo­
nents connected to this unit do not
exceed the capacity that is printed on
the rear panel above the AC outlets.
• (For the European model)
The remote control cannot be used
when the SYSTEM switch on the front
panel is set to OFF.

1. Open the lever.
2. Twist wire ends very, tight, and insert
the wire.
3. Clo.se the lever.
Before making any connections, please
refer to the explanation of “Speaker imped­
ance".

^ SPEAKER IMPEDANCE
A or B:
4 ohms min./speaker
A-r B;
8 ohms min./speaker
Note:
To prevent damage to circuitry,
never short-circuit the positive (+)
and negative (-) speaker wires.
Speaker Impedance
The load impedtincc of each speaker sys­
tem connected to this unit must be at least 4
ohms. (If using only A or only B, 4 ohms
min.; if A and B, 8 ohms min.)
You can connect two separate pairs of
speaker systems.
Please connect each speaker according to
the illustration, observing the correct con­
nections for R. L, and -.
•
Do not u.se unnecessarily long or
extremely thin speaker leads. If the DC
resistance of the s()eaker leads is too
high, the damping factor will decrease,
adversely affecting the sound quality.
• When using only one .speaker or when
you wish to li.stcn to monaural (mono),
the single spetiker should never be con­
nected in parallel to both the right and
left channel terminals at the same time.
