ENGLISH AVR Making Connections Connect to Your Home Network Use a Cat. 5 or Cat. 5E cable (not supplied) to connect the AVR's Network connector to your home network to enjoy Internet radio and content from DLNA-compatible devices that are connected to the network. AVR Network Connector Network Modem Cat. 5/5E Ethernet Cable (not supplied) To Home Network and Internet AVR 3700/AVR 370 only: If your home network is Wi-Fi®, attach the supplied Wi-Fi antenna to the AVR. You do not need to make a wired network connection. Install a Multizone System IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTE: Installing a multizone system typically requires running cables inside walls. Always comply with the appropriate safety codes when installing concealed wiring, particularly all applicable building codes. Failure to do so may present a safety hazard. If you have any doubt about your ability to work with electrical wiring, hire a licensed electrician or custom installer to install the multizone system. NOTE: Only the following analog audio sources are available to Zone 2: the internal radio, an iPod/iPhone device or a USB memory device inserted in the AVR's USB port and up to two source devices connected to the rear-panel Analog Audio In 1 and 2 connectors. Your AVR offers two different methods of distributing audio to other areas in your home. Each requires different connections: A. Connect the Zone 2 speakers directly to the Assigned Amp Speaker Output connectors. Assign the Assigned Amp channels to power the Zone 2 speakers (see Manual Speaker Setup, on page 36). This method allows you to power a single pair of speakers for Zone 2. This method offers the benefit of reduced cost and complexity, but your home theater system will be limited to 5.1 channels - the AVR will automatically downmix the playback of programs recorded in 6.1 or 7.1 channels to 5.1 channels. Zone 2 Speakers Connect the Radio Antennas s Connect the supplied FM antenna to the AVR's FM 751 antenna connector. For the best reception, extend the FM antenna as far as possible. s Bend and fold the base of the supplied AM antenna as shown and connect the antenna wires to the AVR's AM and Gnd connectors. (You can connect either wire to either connector.) Rotate the antenna as necessary to minimize background noise.
