connecTing The Ac poWer
The receiver comes with a detachable AC power cord. This type of cord
makes it easier for you to install and connect all other system wiring to the
receiver’s rear panel.
NOTES:
• The power requirement for the BD100 and BD300 receivers is 100V –
240V AC, 50/60Hz, 50W. Connecting to a power source other than the
one listed may damage the receiver or cause abnormal operation.
• Before connecting the AC power cord to a wall outlet, confirm that you
have correctly made all of the speaker connections, video connections
and audio-component connections.
Connect the female end of the receiver’s detachable power cord to
the receiver’s AC Power connector. Plug the other end into a working,
unswitched
AC outlet.

Plug the subwoofer’s power cord into an active, unswitched
AC wall outlet.
• If you set the subwoofer’s Auto/On switch in the “Auto” position, the
subwoofer will automatically turn on when it senses an audio signal at
its input connection. The subwoofer will automatically enter the Standby
mode approximately 20 minutes after the input signal ceases.
• If you set the Auto/On switch in the “On” position, the subwoofer will
turn on when the Power switch is in the “On” position and will turn off
when the Power switch is in the “Off” position.
• If you will not be using the subwoofer for an extended period of time, such
as a vacation, we recommend setting the Power switch to “Off.”
Press the receiver’s front-panel Power button or the Power button on the
remote control. The front-panel information display will display the legend
“JBL.” The receiver is now ready for use.

batteries as shown in the illustration, making sure to observe the correct
polarity.
uSing The reMoTe
When using the remote, remember to aim it toward the receiver’s front
panel. Make sure that no objects, such as furniture, block the remote’s view
of the receiver. Bright lights, fluorescent lights and plasma-video displays
may interfere with the function of the remote.
• The remote has a range of about 20 feet (6.1m), depending on the
lighting conditions.
• You can use the remote at an angle of up to 30° to either side of the BD
receiver.
If the remote seems to operate intermittently, make sure that the batteries
are inserted correctly. If the remote still operates intermittently, replace both
batteries with new ones.
