Connect the Rec A Audio Output of the 5.0 to the "Rec/Id input of the audio recorder or VCR that will be used to record the output of the 5.0. Connect the Rec A Video Output to the composite video input of a VCR that will be used to record the output of the 5.0. 4. Connect the Main Composite Video Output on the 5.0 to the Video In jack on your TV monitor or other video display device. A connection from the Main S-Video Output on the 5.0 to the S-Video input on your video display may also be made if you will use S-Video sources at a later time. 5. Using high-quality audio interconnect cables, connect the Audio Outputs of the 5.0 to the matching input connection on your amplifier. Note that the 5.0's preset default is for Citation or Fosgate • Audionics Dual Drive dipole surround speakers. If you are using standard surround speakers you will need to make an adjustment at the Speaker Set up menu, as detailed in the Owner's Manual. 6. Connect the Subwoofer Outputs to the line-level input of powered subwoofers, or to the amplifier that will power passive subwoofers. Note that the 5.0 is shipped for use with stereo subwoofers as a factory default. If you are using stereo subwoofers, be certain to connect them to the Sub Outputs at the far side of the output jack field. If you are using only one subwoofer, connect it to the Mono Sub jack. If one or no subwoofers are installed, please note that you will have to make an adjustment to the Speaker Set up menu, as described in the Owner's Manual. 7. If a Citation power amplifier, or other compatible power amplifier with 12-volt turn-on trigger circuits will be used, connect the Trig 1 Trigger jack on the 5.0 to the Trigger Input on the amplifier using a connection cord with mono 3.5mm mini-plugs at both ends. Follow the switch setting instructions for the amplifiers, if any, as detailed in the amplifier owner's manual. Important Note: To avoid unwanted hum and noise, be careful to keep audio connections, particularly those for amplifiers, separated from AC power cords. Do not coil extra lengths in either audio interconnects or speaker cables. 8. Connect all speakers to the amplifiers in accordance with the instructions supplied by the manufacturers. Make certain that all speaker connections are made with special attention to proper polarity. 9. Install four AAA batteries in the remote. Open the battery cover on the back of the remote by sliding the cover down and towards you. Be careful to install the batteries so that they match the polarity (+ and -) indications inside the battery compartment. 10. Connect all devices, including the 5.0, to their AC power source. 11. Press the small On/Off button on the front panel of the 5.0 (below the large Standby button) in until it clicks and catches. It will remain in and flush with the unit's front panel. Note that the word C IT AT I ON will briefly flash in blue and then go out, and a small green indicator will illuminate. 8
