Getting Started  
Before Installation  
General Precautions  
DO NOT insert any metal object to the unit.  
DO NOT disassemble the unit or remove screws, covers, or  
cabinet.  
Putting Batteries in the Remote Control  
Before using the remote control, put two supplied batteries first.  
When using the remote control, aim the remote control directly at  
the remote sensor on the unit.  
1 On the back of the remote control, remove the  
DO NOT expose the unit to rain or moisture.  
battery cover.  
Locations  
Install the unit in a location that is level and protected from  
moisture.  
The temperature around the unit must be between 5˚C and 35˚C  
(23˚F and 95˚F).  
Make sure there is good ventilation around the unit. Poor  
ventilation could cause overheating and damage the unit.  
Handling the unit  
DO NOT touch the power cord with wet hands.  
DO NOT pull the power cord to unplug the cord. When  
unplugging the cord, always grasp the plug so as not to damage  
the cord.  
2 Insert batteries.  
Make sure to match the polarity: (+) to (+) and () to ().  
Keep the power cord away from the connecting cords and the  
antenna. The power cord may cause noise or screen interference. It  
is recommended to use a coaxial cable for antenna connection,  
since it is well-shielded against interference.  
When a power failure occurs, or when you unplug the power cord,  
the preset settings such as preset FM/AM channels and sound  
adjustments may be erased in a few days.  
Checking the Supplied Accessories  
Check to be sure you have all of the following supplied accessories.  
The number in the parentheses indicates the quantity of the piece(s)  
supplied.  
3 Replace the cover.  
• Remote Control (1)  
• Batteries (2)  
• AM Loop Antenna (1)  
• FM Antenna (1)  
If anything is missing, contact your dealer immediately.  
If the range or effectiveness of the remote control decreases, replace  
the batteries. Use two R6P(SUM-3)/AA(15F) type dry-cell batteries.  
CAUTION:  
Follow these precautions to avoid leaking or cracking cells:  
Place batteries in the remote control so they match the polarity:  
(+) to (+) and () to ().  
Use the correct type of batteries. Batteries that look similar may  
differ in voltage.  
Always replace both batteries at the same time.  
Do not expose batteries to heat or flame.

sound and minimum sound) of the reproduced sound. This is useful  
when enjoying surround sound at night.  
This function takes effect only when playing back a source

Creating Realistic Sound Fields  
You can use the following Surround modes to reproduce a realistic  
sound field:  
Dolby Digital*  
Used to reproduce multichannel sound tracks of the software  
encoded with Dolby Digital ( ).  
To enjoy the software encoded with Dolby Digital, connect the  
source component using the digital terminal on the rear of this  
receiver. (See page 7.)

Dolby Digital 5.1 ch encoding method (so-called discrete  
multichannel digital audio format) records and digitally compresses  
the left front channel, right front channel, center channel, left rear  
channel, right rear channel, and LFE channel signals.  
Since each channel is completely independent from the other  
channel signals to avoid interference, you can obtain much better  
sound quality with much stereo and surround effects.  
I Dolby Surround  
Dolby Pro Logic II*  
Dolby Pro Logic II has a newly developed multichannel playback  
format to decode all 2 channel sourcesregular stereo source and  
Dolby Surround encoded sourceinto 5.1 channel.  
Matrix-based encoding/decoding method for Dolby Pro Logic II  
makes no limitation for the cutoff frequency of the rear treble and  
enables stereo rear sound compared to conventional Dolby Pro  
Logic.  
Note:  
Dolby Digital software can be roughly grouped into two categories  
multichannel (up to 5.1ch) and 2 channel software. To enjoy  
surround sounds while playing Dolby Digital 2 ch software, you can  
use Dolby Pro Logic II.  
Dolby Pro Logic II enables to reproduce spacious sound from  
original sound without adding any new sounds and tonal colorations.  
Dolby Pro Logic II has two modesMovie mode and Music mode:  
I DTS Digital Surround**

encoded with DTS Digital Surround (

Pro Logic II Music (PL II MUSIC)suitable for reproduction of  
any 2 channel stereo music sources. You can enjoy wide and deep  
sound by using this mode. For this mode, Panorama control can be  
selected, which gives wraparoundsound effect with side-wall  
image.  
DTS Digital Surround is another discrete multichannel digital  
audio format available on CD, LD, and DVD software.  
Compared to Dolby Digital, audio compression ratio is relatively  
low. This fact allows DTS Digital Surround format to add breadth  
and depth to the reproduced sounds. As a result, DTS Digital  
Surround features natural, solid and clear sound.

I DAP (Digital Acoustic Processor) modes  
I All Channel Stereo  
DAP modes have been designed to create important acoustic  
surround elements.  
This mode can reproduce a larger stereo sound field using all the  
connected (and activated) speakers.  
The sound heard in a live club, dance club, hall or pavilion consists  
of direct sound and indirect soundearly reflections and reflections  
from behind. Direct sounds reach the listener directly without any  
reflection. On the other hand, indirect sounds are delayed by the  
distances of the ceiling and walls (see the diagram below).  
These indirect sounds are important elements of the acoustic  
surround effects. The DAP mode can reproduce a realistic sound  
field by adding these indirect sounds.  
All Channel Stereo can be used when the front and rear  
speakers are connected to this receiver without respect to the  
center speaker connection.  
If the center speaker is connected and activated, the same phase of  
the front left and right signals are output through the center speaker.  
All Channel Stereo can be used while reproducing 2 channel stereo  
software, either analog or digital except Dolby Digital and DTS  
Digital Surround.  
DAP modes can be used when the front and rear speakers are  
connected to this receiver (without respect to the center speaker  
connection: no sound comes out of the center speaker even if it is  
connected).  
When All Channel Stereo is selected, the DSP indicator lights up  
on the display.  
All Channel Stereo reproduction  
The following DAP modes are provided with this receiver:  
LIVE CLUB  
: Gives the feeling of a live music club with a low  
ceiling.  
DANCE CLUB : Gives a throbbing bass beat.  
HALL  
: Gives clear vocal and the feeling of a concert  
hall.  
PAVILION  
: Gives the spacious feeling of a pavilion with a  
high ceiling.  
These DAP modes can be used to add the acoustic surround effects  
while reproducing 2 channel stereo softwareeither analog or  
digital except Dolby Digital and DTS Digital Surroundand can  
give you a real being therefeeling.  
Sound reproduced from All Channel Stereo  
When one of the DAP modes is selected, the DSP indicator lights

DVD MULTI Playback Mode  
Creating sound field  
Reflections from behind  
This receiver provides the DVD MULTI Playback Mode for  
reproducing the analog discrete 5.1 channel output mode of the  
DVD player or other equipment.  
Early reflections  
You can adjust speaker output levels while playing back a video  
software such as a DVD using the analog discrete 5.1 channel  
output mode.  
For connecting analog discrete output jacks, see page 7.
