Precautions when making connections
o
After completing all other connections, insert the power plug
into a power outlet .
o
Carefully read the manuals of the devices that you are connect-
ing and follow their instructions when making connections .
ATTENTION
o
This unit is compatible with speakers that have 4–8Ω nominal
impedance . If speakers with impedance of less than 4 Ω are used,
the protection circuit could operate, causing sound output to
stop . In some cases, this unit or the speakers could be damaged .
o
The red speaker terminals are positive (
¥
) and the black
speaker terminals are negative (
^
) . Generally, the
¥
wire of the
speaker cable is marked to distinguish it from the
^
wire of the
cable . Connect the marked wire to the red
¥
terminal and the
unmarked wire to the black
^
terminal .
o
If the exposed core wires at the tips of the speaker cables should
touch other cables or terminals, an electrical short might occur .
o
Never allow speaker cables to cause a short .
o
To prevent hum and noise, avoid bundling the cables together
with the AC power cord or other cables .
How to connect speakers
1
Remove about one centimeter of insulation from
the end of the speaker cable and twist the core
wires well.
2
Turn the terminal cap counterclockwise to loosen
it.
3
Insert the wire into the hole in the terminal post
and turn the terminal cap clockwise to securely
connect it.
o
Connect it so that none of the wire insulation is touching
the terminal .
4
Confirm that the cable is fastened securely by gen-
tly pulling the cable.
Connecting with banana plugs
You can also make connections using commercially-available
banana plugs . First, connect the banana plugs to the speaker cables
and then connect the plugs to the terminals .
o
Keep the caps tightened when in use .
o
Carefully read the instructions for the banana plugs that you are
using .
Notice about the European model
In accordance with European safety regulations, connecting
banana plugs to speaker terminals is not allowed on European
models . The holes into which banana plugs could be inserted
have been covered with black caps . Connect speakers using
bare wires or spade lugs . If a black cap should become separated
from its terminal, return it to its original position .
