Setting the voltage selector
If your receiver has a voltage selector on the rear 
panel, check that the voltage selector is set to the 
local power supply voltage. If not, use a 
screwdriver to set the selector to the correct 
position before connecting the AC power cord to 
a wall outlet.
Connecting the AC power 
cord
Connect the AC power cord to a wall outlet.
* Except for models of area code AR. 
The configuration, shape and number of AC outlets 
vary according to the area code.
Notes
• The AC OUTLET(s) on the rear of the receiver is a 
switched outlet, which supplies power to the 
connected component only while the receiver is 
turned on.
• Make sure that the total power consumption of the 
component(s) connected to the receiver’s AC 
OUTLET(s) does not exceed the wattage stated on 
the rear panel. Do not connect high-wattage 
electrical home appliances such as electric irons, 
fans, or TVs to this outlet. This may cause a 
malfunction.
