Connecting a Powered Subwoofer

Using a suitable cable, connect the AV receiver's SUB-
WOOFER PRE OUT to the input on your powered sub-
woofer. If your subwoofer is unpowered and you're
using an external amplifier, connect the SUBWOOFER
PRE OUT to it's input.
Note:
Make sure the plugs are pushed in all the way.
The following illustration shows which speaker should be
connected to each pair of terminals.
If you're using only one surround back speaker, connect it
to the left (L) SURROUND BACK SPEAKERS terminals.
