Important Note for the Use of
SCART-Cinch Adapters:
When video sources are connected to the TV
directly with a SCART cable, specific control
signals apart from Audio/Video signals will be
fed to the TV. These specific signals are: With all
video sources, the signal for automatic input
selection that switches the TV automatically to
the appropriate input as soon as the video
source is started. And with DVD players, the
signals automatically turning the TV to 4:3/16:9
format (with 16:9 TVs or with 4:3 TVs with
selectable 16:9 format) and turning the RGB
video decoder of the TV on or off, depending on
the DVD player´s setting. With any adapter cable,
these control signals will be lost and the
appropriate setting of the TV must be made
manually.

Note for RGB signal with SCART:
If you use a unit providing RGB signals on a
SCART output (as e.g. most DVD players do) and
you want to use that RGB signal, this SCART
output must be connected directly to your TV.
Although the AVR can switch three-way video
signals (like component signals Y/Pb/Pr), most
TVs need separate sync signals for RGB (also
with SCART) that cannot be switched and pro-
vided by the AVR.
RGB signals can be pathed through the AVR only
when no separate sync signal is needed (see last
"Video Connection Note" on page 13).

System and Power Connections

Black
AC Power Connections
Yellow
This unit is equipped with two accessory AC
Red
outlets. They may be used to power accessory
devices, but they should not be used with
high-current draw equipment such as power
Black
amplifiers. The total power draw to the
Red Unswitched Outlet
100 watts, that to the Switched Outlet
Blue 1
50 watts.
Yellow
Green 1 The Switched
when the unit is on completely. This is recom-
White
mended for devices that have no power switch
or a mechanical power switch that may be left in
the "ON" position.
NOTE: Many audio and video products go into a
Standby mode when they are used with
switched outlets, and cannot be fully turned on
using the outlet alone without a remote control
command.
Red
The Unswitched
Black
as long as the unit is plugged into a powered AC
outlet and the Main Power Switch 1 is on.
S-Video In
The AVR draws significantly more current than
other household devices such as computers that
Black
use removable power cords. For that reason, it is
Red
important that only the cord supplied with the
Blue 1
unit (or a direct replacement of identical capaci-
Yellow ty) be used.
Once the power cord is connected, you are
