1. Unscrew Cap 2. Insert Bare Wire
Always connect the colored (+) terminal on the AVR to the (+) terminal on the speaker
(usually red), and the black (–) terminal on the AVR to the (–) terminal on the speaker
(usually black).

Composite Video Monitor Out Connector
If your TV does not have an HDMI connector, or if your TV does have an HDMI connector
but you are connecting some source devices with only composite video connectors, use
a composite video cable (not included) to connect the AVR's Composite Monitor Out
connector to your TV's composite video connector.
IMPORTANT: The AVR's on-screen display (OSD) only appears through the Composite
Monitor Out connector. If you want to use the AVR's OSD menus you need to connect
its Composite Monitor Out connector to your TV even if you are not connecting any
composite video source devices to the AVR.
