Connecting Auxiliary Components; Before You Connect - RCA RV-9968 User Manual

BEFORE YOU CONNECT...
Protect components from power surges,
Connect all components before plugging any
power cordsinto the wall outlet.
Always turn off the receiver and/or components
before you connect or disconnect any cables.
Always make sure the color-coded plugs match the
color of the terminals in which they are inserted.
The connection cable plugs and jacks are color-
coded as follows:
Speaker Terminals Red for positive (+) terminals.
Black for negative (-) terminals,
RCA Phono Type Terminals Red for the right (R)
channel. White for the left (L) channel.
Yellow for the video (V). Black for the subwoofer.
(Not Included)
Some units may be supplied with connection plugs
that are color coded red and black
instead of red and white. In this case, the black
plug takes the place of the white plug.
Contact Consumer Relations if you have questions
concerning the connections or components.
POSITION CABLES CORRECTLY TO AVOID
AUDIO HUM OR INTERFERENCE
Insert all cable plugs firmly into theirjacks.
Place audio/video cablesto the sidesof the
receiver's back panel instead of straight down
the middle after you connect the components.
Try not to coil any power cables and keep them
away from the audio/video cables as
much as possible.
Make sure all antennas and cables are properly
grounded. Refer to the Safety Tips sheet
packed with your receiver.
PROTECT YOUR COMPONENTS FROM OVER-
HEATING
Do not block ventilation holes in any component.
Arrange the components so that air can
circulate freely.
Do not stack components directly on top of each
other.
Allow adequate ventilation when placing your
components in a stand.
Place an amplifier near the top shelf of the stand
so heating air rising from it will not
flow around other components. If you have a
satellite receiver, you should place it on
the top shelf.
