PREPARATIONS PREPARATION PREPARATIONS Connecting speakers/external components/antennas Make sure you read the following procedure and note carefully before connecting the system. The remote control and linked operation of the system only work when the receiver and the DVD player are connected via the system control cable. For information on the speakers (NS-BP300), refer to the owner s manual supplied with it. Connecting the system 1 Connect the AUDIO IN ( A PLAYER L/R) jacks of the receiver to the AUDIO OUT ( A L/R) jacks of the DVD player using the supplied audio RCA stereo cable. 2 Connect the SYSTEM CONNECTOR ( B TO:PLAYER) jack of the receiver to the SYSTEM CONNECTOR ( B TO:RECEIVER) jack of the DVD player using the supplied system control cable. 3 Connect the speaker terminals (L) of the receiver to the speaker terminals of the left speaker and the speaker terminals (R) of the receiver to the speaker terminals of the right speaker using the speaker cables supplied with the speaker set (NS-BP300). 4 Connect the supplied FM antenna to the ANTENNA jack. DVD player (DVD-840) TV etc. Right speaker (NS-BP300) Left speaker (NS-BP300) System control cable (supplied) RCA stereo cable (supplied) Audio out RCA stereo cable Subwoofer Receiver (R-840) (Europe model) CAUTION Do not connect this unit or other components to the main power until all connections between components are complete. Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other or any metal part of the receiver. This could damage the receiver and/or the speakers. All connections must be correct: L (left) to L, R (right) to R, + to + and to. If the connections are faulty, no sound will be heard from the speakers, and if the polarity of the speaker connections is incorrect, the sound will be unnatural and lack bass. Also, refer to the owner s manual for each of your components. Notes The system control connection is used to transmit the remote control signals from the receiver to the DVD player. When connecting speakers other than NS-BP300, use speakers having more than 6Ω impedance. If there is a problem of weak radio wave reception in your area or you want to improve radio reception, we recommend that you use commercially available outdoor antennas. For details, consult the nearest authorized Yamaha dealer or service center. 8 En
