Connecting a TV and playback component
Plugging the receiver
If you have an HDMI or DVI (with HDCP) equipped component (Blu-ray Disc player, etc.), you can connect it to this
receiver using a commercially available HDMI cable.
• The following connection/setting is required to listen to the sound of the TV over this receiver.
– If the TV does not support the HDMI Audio Return Channel function, connect the receiver and TV with audio
cables (as shown).
– If the TV supports the HDMI Audio Return Channel function, the sound of the TV is input to the receiver via the
HDMI terminal, so there is no need to connect an audio cable. In this case, set ARC at HDMI Setup to ON.
– The ARC function may not operate even with the above connections. If this is the case, connect the receiver
and the TV with an audio cable.
– Please refer to the TV’s operation manual for directions on connections and setup for the TV.

CAUTION
• Handle the power cord by the plug part. 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 electric shock. Do not place
the unit, a piece of furniture, or other object on the
power cord or pinch the cord in any other way. Never
make a knot in the cord or tie it with other cables. The
power cords should be routed so that they are not
likely to be stepped on. A damaged power cord can
cause a fire or give you an electric shock. Check the
power cord once in a while. If you find it damaged,
ask your nearest Pioneer authorized independent
service company for a replacement.

supplied with this unit.

other than that described below.
• The receiver should be disconnected by removing the
mains plug from the wall socket when not in regular
use, e.g., when on vacation.
