Before Connecting Components
CAUTION
Never connect this unit and other components to mains power until all connections between components have been
completed.
Be sure all connections are made correctly, that is to say L (left) to L, R (right) to R, "+" to "+" and "–" to "–". Some
components require different connection methods and have different terminal names. Refer to the instructions for each
component to be connected to this unit.
When you connect other YAMAHA audio components (such as a tape deck, MD recorder and CD player or changer), connect
it to the terminals with the same number labels as !, @, #, $ etc. YAMAHA applies this labeling system to all its
products.
Use RCA-type pin plug cables for connecting audio/video components with the exception described later.
The input and output terminals for pin plugs can be distinguished as follows:
Yellow
White
Red
After completing all connections, check them again to make sure they are correct.
