Connections for a Standard-Defi nition TV (SDTV)

When using the receiver with an SDTV, you must make 

one 

of the following connections 

to view content. Some SDTVs may not have all these connections. Refer to the 
owner’s manual for your TV and the cabling diagrams in this manual for more detailed 
information.

Although all connections provide you with quality service, we list the connections in our 
recommended order.

Notes:

•  The labeling on your receiver or SDTV may vary slightly from the illustrations shown  

 

 below.
•  Some cables shown in the connection diagrams may not be included with this receiver.

The YPbPr (red, blue, and green) 
connectors can provide standard-defi nition 
component video signals to an SDTV. A 
separate audio connection is also needed.

See the connection diagram on 

page 17

 

for an example.
