ENGLISH 6 READ THIS FIRST This A / V surround Receiver must be setup before use. Following these steps. Step 1 (page 5 to 8) Choose the location to setup the speakers and connecting the components. Step 2 (page 9) Next, insert the batteries into the remote control unit. 8 CONNECTIONS • Do not plug in the power cord until all connections have been completed. • Be sure to connect the left and right channels properly (left with left, right with right). • Insert the plugs securely. Incomplete connections will result in the generation of noise. • Use the AC OUTLET for audio equipment only. Do not use them for hair driers, etc. • Note that binding pin plug cords together with power cords or placing them near a power transformer will result in generating hum or other noise. • Noise or humming may be generated if a connected audio equipment is used independently without turning the power of this unit on. If this happens, turn on the power of this unit. • Analog recording of signals input to the AVR-1603 in digital format is not possible. To record in analog, also connect the analog signals of the player to the AVR-1603's analog input terminals. • The AVR-1603's OPTICAL OUT terminal is an optical digital output terminal for connection of a CD recorder, MD recorder or other digital recording device. Use it for digital recording. Step 3 (page 9 to 12) Finally, setting up the system. 7 SETTING UP THE SPEAKER SYSTEMS 2 Speaker system layout Basic system layout • The following is an example of the basic layout for a system consisting of six speaker systems and a television monitor: Subwoofer Center speaker system Connecting the audio components (1) Tape deck or CD recorder OUTPUT INTPUT R LRL RLRL Connecting a tape deck Connections for recording: Connect the tape deck's recording input jacks (LINE IN or REC) to this unit's tape recording (OUT) jacks using pin plug cords.
