(Except for models of area code 
E51)
HDMI is the abbreviated name for High-
Definition Multimedia Interface. It is an 
interface which transmits video and audio 
signals in digital format.
The sound is output from the TV speaker only
when a playback component and this receiver, 
as well as this receiver and the TV are 
connected via a HDMI jack. To output the 
sound from the supplied speakers and to take 
advantage of the multi channel surround 
sound, be sure to
– connect the digital audio jacks on the 
playback component to the receiver.
– turn off or mute the TV’s volume.
Notes on HDMI connections
• This receiver may not be able to transfer 
video or audio signals with certain types of 
components.
• The multi/stereo area audio signals of a 
Super Audio CD are not output.
• Turn on the receiver when the video and 
audio of a playback component are being 
output to a TV via the receiver. If the power 
supply of the receiver is not turned on, 
neither video nor audio is transmitted.
• Audio signals (sampling frequency, bit 
length, etc.) transmitted from a HDMI jack 
may be restricted by the connected 
component. Check the setup of the 
connected component if the image is poor or 
the sound does not come out of a component 
connected via the HDMI cable.
• Refer to the operating instructions of each 
component connected for details.
