Firmware Update

There are the following methods to update the firmware:

that suits your condition. Before you start, carefully read

flash memory stick. You need at least 32 MB of avail-
able space to update the firmware.

• If the storage device has been partitioned, each section will be
treated as an independent device.

controller may take a while to read it.
• Operation with all USB mass storage devices including the abil-
ity to power them is not guaranteed.
• Onkyo accepts no responsibility whatsoever for the loss or dam-
age to data stored on a USB mass storage device when that
device is used with the AV controller. We recommend that you
back up your important music files beforehand.
• If you connect a USB hard disk drive to the USB port, we rec-
ommend that you use its AC adapter to power it.
• USB hubs and USB devices with hub functions are not sup-
ported. Do not connect your USB mass storage device via a USB
hub.
• USB memory devices with security functions are not supported.
• In no event shall Onkyo be liable to you or any third party for any
damages, whatsoever, arising from your use of or inability to use
the firmware, including but not limited to, loss of any equipment,
media or data, or other special, incidental or consequential dam-
ages, even if Onkyo has been advised of the possibility of such
damages.
