Appendix A: Connecting the Receiver
Protect your components
from overheating
• Do not block ventilation holes in any component.
Arrange the components so that air can circulate freely.
• Do not stack components directly on top of each other.
• Allow adequate ventilation when placing your
components in a stand.
• Place an amplifier on the top shelf of the stand so
heating air rising from it will not flow around
other components. If you have a satellite receiver, you
should place it on the top shelf.
Using the “switched outlet”
• When another component is plugged into the
“switched” AC outlet on the back of the receiver, the
receiver power button will operate the power for the
other component.
• Do
not
plug your TV or VCR in the “switched” outlet on
the back of the receiver.
Using the Subwoofer Connections
You can connect the subwoofer outlet jacks to powerful
subwoofers, such as the RCA SP3500SW. Connect one of
the black terminals on the back of the receiver to the
subwoofer’s line input. If the subwoofer has two input
jacks, connect the receiver to the input jack labeled
“Mono.” If there is no label for Mono, use the right input
jack. If a second subwoofer is used, connect it to the
remaining receiver output jack.
See the subwoofer’s user’s manual for specific information
about adjusting the subwoofer.
