! When connecting to an HDMI/DVI-compatible monitor using the HDMI OUT 2 terminal, switch the HDMI
output setting to OUT 2 or OUT 1+2. See Switching the HDMI output on page 88 .
Also, MAIN/HDZONE must be set to MAIN beforehand (page 111 ).
! For input components, connections other than HDMI connections are also possible (see Connecting your DVD
player with no HDMI output on page 28 ).
! If you want to listen to the sound of the TV over the receiver, connect the receiver and TV with audio cables.
When the TV and receiver are connected by HDMI connections, if the TV supports the HDMI ARC (Audio
Return Channel) function, the sound of the TV can be input to the receiver via the HDMI OUT terminal, so
there is no need to connect an audio cable. In this case, set ARC at HDMI Setup to ON (see HDMI Setup on
page 82 ).
After setting the ARC, some time may be required for the connected device to be recognized and the sound to
be produced.
If you use a coaxial digital audio cable or RCA (analog) audio cable, you’ll need to tell the receiver which digi-
tal or analog audio input you connected the TV to (see The Input Setup menu on page 59 ).
Please refer to the TV’s operation manual for directions on connections and setup for the TV.
! If the TV to be connected using HDMI supports 4K/60p, you can switch the 4K/60p signal output setting in
accordance with TV performance. When the 4K/60p setting is changed to 4:4:4, the video image may not be
output normally unless the HDMI cable supports 4K/60p 4:4:4 24 bit (18 Gbps transmission). In such a case,
select 4:2:0 (page 88 ).
! You cannot input 4K/60p 4:4:4 24 bit video from HDMI IN 3 to the IN 6 terminal. Use the BD IN, HDMI IN 1 or
HDMI IN 2 terminal.
! The HDMI OUT 2 terminal outputs 4K/60p 4:4:4 24 bit video when MAIN/HDZONE is set to MAIN. When it is
set to HDZONE, the 4K/60p 4:4:4 24 bit video is not output.

! If you want to listen to the sound of the TV over the receiver, connect the receiver and TV with audio cables
(page 27 ).
When the TV and receiver are connected by HDMI connections, if the TV supports the HDMI ARC (Audio
Return Channel) function, the sound of the TV can be input to the receiver via the HDMI OUT 1 terminal, so
there is no need to connect an audio cable. In this case, set ARC at HDMI Setup to ON (see HDMI Setup on
page 82 ).
! When connecting to a DVD player with an optical digital audio cable or a coaxial digital audio cable, perform-
ing input terminal settings are necessary (page 59 ).
! If HDZONE is set to on, video images connected using a video cable or component cable are not output from
the HDMI terminal. To output video images, turn HDZONE off (page 89 ).
