The power to components connected iq the
SWITCHED outlet is turned on and off
using the POWER switch (or the SYSTEM .
switch on models other than USA and
Canadian models) on the front panel and
remote control,
NOTE:
@ The shape, number and total capacity of
the AC outlets may differ according to
the model and the area where the unit is
purchased. Be careful that other compo-
nents connected to this unit do not
USA and Canadian exceed the capacity that is printed on
models Capacity is the rear pane! above the AC outlets.

cables Pe
1, Open the lever,
2. Twist wire ends very. tight, and insert
the wire.
3. Close the lever,
Before making any connections, please
refer to the explaination of "Speaker imped-
ance",
SPEAKER A SPEAKER A
SPEAKER B SPEAKER B = Speaker Impedance
: The load impedance of each speaker sys-
tem connected to this unit must be at least 4
ohms. (If using only A or only B, 4 ohms
min.; if A and B, 8 ohms min.)
You can connect two separate pairs of
speaker systems.
Please connect each speaker according to
the illustration, observing the correct con-
nections for R, L, + and -.
e Do not use unnecessarily long or
CAUTION: extremely thin speaker leads. If the DC
SPEAKER IMPEDANCE resistance of the speaker leads is too
Aor B: high, the damping factor will decrease,
4 ohms min/speaker adversely affecting the sound quality.
A+B: : e When using only one speaker or when
8 ohms min/speaker you wish to listen to monaural (mono),
the single speaker should never be con-
nected in parallel to both the right and
lelt channel terminals at the same time,
To prevent damage to circuitry.
never short-circuit the positive (+)
