Caution
• Before making or changing the connections,
switch off the power and disconnect the
power cord from the power outlet.
Plugging in components should be the last
connection you make with your system.
• Do not allow any contact between speaker
wires from different terminals.
• You can use speakers with a nominal
impedance between 6 Ω to 16 Ω (please
see Switching the speaker impedance on
page 69 if you plan to use speakers with an
impedance of less than 8 Ω).
