short-circuiting of the speakers may damage the receiver
To prevent this, make sure to take the following
precauhons when connecting the speakers
Make sure the stripped ends of each speaker cord
do not touch another speaker terminal or the
stripped end of another speaker cord.
Examples of poor conditions of the speaker cord
*1
stripped speaker cord is touching another speaker terminal
To enjoy multi charmel surround, connect front, center,
and rear speakers with a nominal impedance of 8 ohms or
higher, and set the speaker IMPEDANCE SELECTOR to
"8£2 " Check the instruction manual supplied with your
speakers if you're not sure of their impedance (This
information is usually printed on a label on the back of
the speaker)
You may connect a pair of speakers with a nominal
impedance between 4 and 8 ohms to all of the speaker
terminals However, even if one speaker within this range
is connected, set the IMPEDANCE SELECTOR to "4i2"
Note
Be sure to coimect front speakers with a nominal impedance of
8 ohms or higher if you want to select both sets (A+B) of front
speakers (see page 30) In this case, set the IMPEDANCE
SELECTOR to "4n"

After connecting all the components, speakers,
and AC power cord, output a test tone to check
that all the speakers are connected correctly For
details on outputting a test tone, see page 22.
If no sound is heard from a speaker while outputting a
test tone or a test tone is output from a speaker other than
the one whose name is currently displayed on the
receiver, the speaker may be short-circuited If this
happens, check the speaker cormection again
