NOTE
• Disconnect this unit's power plug from the power outlet before connecting the speakers. Also,
turn off the subwoofer.
• Connect so that the speaker cable core wires do not protrude from the speaker terminal. The
protection circuit may be activated if the core wires touch the rear panel or if the + and – sides
touch each other
(vpage 54
"Protection circuit").
• Never touch the speaker terminals while the power cord supply is connected. Doing so could
result in electric shock.
• Use speakers with the speaker impedances shown below.
