The unit is equipped with a variety of input jacks including HDMI input jacks to allow 
you to connect different types of playback devices. For information on how to connect 
an iPod or a USB storage device, see the following pages.

• Connecting an iPod (p.44)

• Connecting a USB storage device (p.48)

Connect video devices such as BD/DVD players, set-top boxes (STBs) and game 
consoles to the unit. Depending on the video/audio output jacks available on your video 
device, choose one of the following connections. We recommend using an HDMI 
connection if the video device has an HDMI output jack.

• If the combination of video/audio input jacks available on the unit does not match your video device, change 

its combination according to the output jacks of your device (p.24).

Connect a video device to the unit with an HDMI cable.

If you select the input source by pressing HDMI 1–4, the video/audio played back on 
the video device will be output from the unit.

• To watch videos input to the HDMI 1–4 jacks, you need to connect your TV to the HDMI OUT jack of the 

unit (p.18 to 21).

■

Connect a video device to the unit with a component video cable and an audio cable 
(digital optical or digital coaxial). Choose a set of input jacks (on the unit) depending on 
the audio output jacks available on your video device.

If you select the input source by pressing AV 1–2, the video/audio played back on the 
video device will be output from the unit.
