KURO LINK

Synchronized operation with a KURO LINK-compatible
Pioneer flat screen TV or Blu-ray disc player or with a
component of another make that supports the KURO
LINK function is possible when the component is
connected to the receiver using an HDMI cable.

For details about concrete operations, settings, etc., refer
to also the operating instructions for each component.

• You cannot use this function with components that

do not support KURO LINK.

• We do not guarantee this receiver will work with

Pioneer KURO LINK-compatible components or
components of other makes that support the KURO
LINK function. We do not guarantee that all
synchronized operations will work with components
of other makes that support the KURO LINK function.

• Use a High Speed HDMI™ cable when you want to

use the KURO LINK function. The KURO LINK
function may not work properly if a different type of
HDMI cable is used.

Making the KURO LINK connections

You can use synchronized operation for a connected flat
screen TV and up to four other components.

Be sure to connect the flat screen TV’s audio cable to the
audio input of this unit.

For details, see Connecting your TV and playback
components
on page 23.

Important

• When connecting this system or changing

connections, be sure to switch the power off and
disconnect the power cord from the wall socket.
After completing all connections, connect the power
cords to the wall socket.

• After this receiver is connected to an AC outlet, a 2

second to 10 second HDMI initialization process
begins. You cannot carry out any operations during
initialization. The HDMI indicator on the display unit
blinks during initialization, and you can turn this
receiver on once it has stopped blinking.

• To get the most out of this function, we recommend

that you connect your HDMI component not to a flat
screen TV but rather directly to the HDMI terminal on
this receiver.

• To use the KURO LINK function, connect this

receiver and flat screen TV using the HDMI OUT 1
terminal. Connecting the KURO LINK compatible
component using the HDMI OUT 2 terminal may
result in malfunction. If this happens, turn off the
KURO LINK compatible component’s KURO LINK
setting.

• While the receiver is equipped with four HDMI inputs,

the KURO LINK function can only be used with up to
three DVD or Blu-ray disc players or up to three DVD
or Blu-ray disc recorders.

Cautions on the KURO LINK function

• Connect the TV directly to this receiver. Interrupting a

direct connection with other amps or an AV converter
(such as an HDMI switch) can cause operational
errors.

• Only connect components (Blu-ray disc player, etc.)

you intend to use as a source to the HDMI input of
this receiver. Interrupting a direct connection with
other amps or an AV converter (such as an HDMI
switch) can cause operational errors.

• When KURO LINK is set to ON, HDMI Input is

automatically set to OFF.

• If a listening mode other than AUTO SURROUND,

ALC, DIRECT, PURE DIRECT or STEREO is selected
while the PQLS effect is enabled, the PQLS effect is
disabled.

• When this receiver is connected by HDMI cable to a

Pioneer player that is compatible with the PQLS
function via HDMI connection and HDMI
reauthentication is performed (the HDMI indicator
blinks), the PQLS effect is enabled and the listening
mode is set to AUTO SURROUND if a listening mode
other than AUTO SURROUND, ALC, DIRECT, PURE
DIRECT
or STEREO is selected.

• When the receiver’s KURO LINK is turned ON, even

if the receiver’s power is in the standby mode, it is
possible to output the audio and video signals from a
player via HDMI to the TV without producing sound
from the receiver, but only when a KURO LINK-
compatible component (Blu-ray disc player, etc.) and
compatible TV are connected. In this case, the
receiver’s power turns on and the power and HDMI
indicators light.
