Connecting up
• Try not to place the surround speakers further away
from the listening position than the front and center
speakers. Doing so can weaken the surround sound
effect.
Caution
• If you choose to install the center speaker on top of
the TV, be sure to secure it with putty, or by other
suitable means, to reduce the risk of damage or
injury resulting from the speaker falling from the TV
in the event of external shocks such as earthquakes.
• Make sure no exposed speaker wire is touching the
rear panel, this may cause the receiver to turn off
automatically.
• These speaker terminals are hazardous when live. To
prevent the risk of electric shock when connecting or
disconnecting the speaker cables, disconnect the
power cable.
About the wireless speaker outputs
To the right of the main speaker terminals there is a pair
of WIRELESS OUT jacks for use with the Pioneer XW-
HTP550 wireless speaker system. Please do not connect
any other component to these jacks.
For more information on using a wireless speaker with
this receiver, please see the operating instructions that
come with the wireless speaker system.
Plugging in
After making sure that everything is connected properly,
connect the attached power cable to a wall outlet.
Power cord caution
Handle the power cord by the plug. Do not pull out the
plug by tugging the cord and never touch the power cord
when your hands are wet as this could cause a short
circuit or an electric shock. Do not place the unit, a piece
of furniture, etc., on the power cord, or pinch the cord.
Never make a knot in the cord or tie it with other cords.
The power cords should be routed such that they are not
likely to be stepped on. A damaged power cord can cause
a fire or give you an electrical shock. Check the power
cord once in a while. When you find it damaged, ask your
nearest Pioneer authorized service center or your dealer
for a replacement.
