Connections
Connecting Your Primary CD Player, continued
Do not plug in the receiver to AC power until you
have connected all your devices.
This section focuses on the connections from your
200-Disc CD Changer to the VR-3100/VR-3090/KRF-
V9992D. Please refer to your changer’s instructions
for more detail about its connection jacks and
capabilities.
Each set of instructions in this section shows one of
several possible variations on connecting your CD
player(s). For further assistance on optional configu-
rations, contact the store where you purchased your
CD player(s).
The illustration shows a Kenwood 200-Disc CD
Changer. Your CD player may look different.
Both the Kenwood CD-3280M and CD-2280M 200-
Disc Changers contain two CD transports. You must
connect these devices as though they were two CD
players. (CD-2280M and CD-3280M are sold only
in USA and Canada.)
What if I Have a Video CD-Compatible
CD Player?
Connect the audio and video cables from the CD
player to any unused Video jack set.
Do not connect the system control cable in this
instance.
