Switching the speaker impedance
We recommend using speakers of 8
Ω
with this
system, but it is possible to switch the imped-
ance setting if you plan to use speakers with a
6
Ω
impedance rating.
•
With the receiver in standby, press
STANDBY/ON while holding down the
QUICK SETUP button.
Each time you do this, you switch between the
impedance settings:
•
SP 6 OHM
– Use this setting if your
speakers are rated at 6
Ω
.
•
SP 8 OHM
– Use this setting if your
speakers are rated at 8
Ω
or more.
Power cord caution
Handle the power cord by the plug. Do not pull
out the plug by tugging the cord and never
touch the power cord when your hands are wet
as this could cause a short circuit or an electric
shock. Do not place the unit, a piece of
furniture, etc., on the power cord, or pinch the
cord. Never make a knot in the cord or tie it
with other cords. The power cords should be
routed such that they are not likely to be
stepped on. A damaged power cord can cause
a fire or give you an electrical shock. Check the
power cord once in a while. When you find it
damaged, ask your nearest Pioneer authorized
service center or your dealer for a replacement.
