CAUTION
• These speaker terminals carry
HAZARDOUS LIVE voltage. To prevent
the risk of electric shock when connecting
or disconnecting the speaker cables,
disconnect the power cord before touching
any uninsulated parts.
• Make sure that all the bare speaker wire is
twisted together and inserted fully into the
speaker terminal. If any of the bare speaker
wire touches the back panel it may cause
the power to cut off as a safety measure.
Note
1 All speaker terminals (except Speaker B connections) are switched off when headphones are connected.
2 The subwoofer output depends on the settings you made in Speaker Setting on page 45. However, if SPB is selected above,
no sound is heard from the subwoofer (the LFE channel is not downmixed).
