Using a high quality HDMI cable*, connect one end to the HDMI
port labeled “ARC” on your TV. Connect the other end to the
HDMI OUT TV port on your receiver.
What is ARC?
Audio Return Channel or “ARC” sends audio back to the receiver
using the same HDMI cable that sends video from your receiver
to your TV. This allows your receiver to process the sound from
your TV’s built-in tuner and apps.
* For 4K TVs, we recommend using an HDMI cable labeled “High
Speed” and “with Ethernet” .
* For 8K TVs, we recommend using an HDMI cable labeled
“Ultra High Speed”.
Connect the receiver to your TV
Place the receiver near your TV and connect the power
cord.
