Connecting the Speakers
You can connect the following speakers:
• Two sets of front speakers to produce normal stereo sound
• One set of rear speakers to enjoy the surround effect
• One center speaker to produce more effective surround effect (to make human voices outstanding)
• One subwoofer to enhance the bass
For each speaker (except for subwoofer), connect one end of the speaker signal cable (not supplied) to the
speaker terminal on the rear panel and the other end to the speaker. (For connecting a subwoofer, see page 7).
1. Open each terminal.
2. Insert the end of the speaker signal cable as shown (be sure to remove the insulation at the end
of each wire first).
3. Close the terminals to clamp the speaker signal cables firmly in place.
4. Connect the black (–) and red (+) terminals on the rear panel to the black (–) and red (+)
terminals marked on the speakers.
CAUTION:
When connecting speakers, use speakers with the same SPEAKER IMPEDANCE indicated by
the speaker terminals.

About the speaker impedance of the speakers
CAUTION:
When connecting speakers, use speakers with the same SPEAKER IMPEDANCE indicated by
the speaker terminals.
Notes:
• The required speaker impedance of the front speakers does not differ depending on whether both the
FRONT SPEAKERS 1 and FRONT SPEAKERS 2 terminals are used or only one of them is used.
• The required speaker impedance of the front speakers differs depending on whether or not a center and/
or rear speakers are connected at the same time. Since there are four possible speaker connections with
the receiver, check which one fits your case and use the speaker with the impedance described below.
CASE 1 When you connect only front speakers

Connecting Audio Components for the COMPU LINK-3 Remote Control System
The COMPU LINK-3 remote control system allows you to control other JVC audio components from the
receiver or vice versa. To use this system, connect your JVC audio components and the receiver with the cable
(monaural mini-plug) supplied with those components.
If your audio component has two COMPU LINK-3 SYNCHRO jacks, you can use either one.
If it has only one COMPU LINK-3 SYNCHRO jack, connect it so that it is the last item in the series of
components (for example, the turntable and the CD player in the diagram below).
Notes:
• The COMPU LINK-3 remote control system is the upgraded version of the COMPU LINK-1 and COMPU
LINK-2. Even if your component has the COMPU LINK-1 or COMPU LINK-2 jacks, you can still connect
it in the COMPU LINK-3 remote control system, but some functions may not work correctly.
• For more information about the COMPU LINK-3 (-1 and -2) remote control system, see page 27.

Connecting the Power Cord
Before plugging the receiver into an AC outlet, make sure that all connections have been made.
1. Plug the power cord into an AC outlet.
POWER
2. Press POWER to set it in the _ON position.
The STANDBY lamp lights up. A small amount of power is always consumed.
_ON —OFF
To shut off the power completely:
Press POWER to set it in the —OFF position.
Keep the power cord away from the connecting cables for the TV, VCR, and antenna. The power cord may
cause noise or screen interference. We recommend that you use a coaxial cable to connect the antenna, since
it is well-shielded against interference.
The difference between the POWER switch and the STANDBY/ON
button
• The POWER switch is the mains supply switch, allowing the receiver to connect to the mains supply.
To shut off the power completely, press the POWER switch to set it in the —OFF position.
• The STANDBY/ON
button is a functional on/off (standby) switch, and does not disconnect the
receiver from the mains supply. A small amount of power is consumed even in standby mode for the
receiver to accept signals from the remote control.
Note:
The preset settings such as preset channel and sound adjustment may be erased in the following cases:
• When you press POWER to set it in the —OFF position.
• When you unplug the power cord.
• When a power failure occurs.
CAUTIONS:
• Do not touch the power cord with wet hands.
• Do not pull on the power cord to unplug the receiver. When unplugging the receiver, always
grasp the plug itself so as not to damage the cord.
Putting Batteries in the Remote Control
Before using the remote control, put the two supplied batteries in first. When using the remote control, aim
the remote control directly at the remote sensor on the receiver.
1. On the back of the remote control, press down on the battery cover and slide it out.
2. Insert batteries. Make sure to observe the proper polarity: (+) to (+) and (–) to (–).
3. Slide the cover.
R6P (SUM-3)/AA (15F)
If the range or effectiveness of the remote control decreases, replace the batteries. Use two R6P (SUM-3)/
AA (15F) type dry-cell batteries.
CAUTIONS:
Follow these precautions to avoid leaking or cracking cells:

COMPU LINK Remote Control System
The COMPU LINK remote control system allows you to operate JVC audio components through the remote
sensor on the receiver.
To use this remote control system, you need to connect JVC audio components through the COMPU LINK-
3 SYNCHRO jacks with the cables (monaural mini-plug supplied with those components):
COMPU LINK – 3
SYNCHRO
CD player
Cassette deck
Turntable
This remote control system allows you to use the four functions listed below.
7
Remote Control through the Remote Sensor on the Receiver
You can control JVC audio components through the remote sensor on the receiver using this remote control.
Aim the remote control directly at the remote sensor on the receiver.
For details, see page 28.
Notes:
• Without connecting the audio components with RCA pin plugs as described on page 7, the COMPU LINK
remote control system cannot operate the components.
• Refer also to the manuals supplied with your audio components.

Automatic Source Selection
When you press the play (3) button on a connected component or on its own remote control, the receiver
automatically turns on and changes its source to the component. On the other hand, if you select a new source
on the receiver or the remote control, the selected component begins playing immediately.
In both cases, the previously selected source continues playing without sound for a few seconds.
7
Automatic Power On/Off (Standby) (only possible with the COMPU LINK-3 connection)
Both the CD player and cassette deck turn on and off (into standby mode) with the receiver.
When you turn on the receiver, the CD player or cassette deck will turn on automatically, depending which
component has been previously selected.
When you turn off the receiver (into standby mode), both the CD player and cassette deck will turn off (into
standby mode).
7
Synchronized Recording
Synchronized recording means the cassette deck starts recording as soon as a CD or record begins playing.
To use synchronized recording, follow these steps:
1
2
Put a tape in the cassette deck, and a disc in the CD player (or a record on the turntable).
Press the record (¶) button and the pause (8) button on the cassette deck at the same time.
