Connect image display components such as a TV
monitor or aprojector to the MONITOR VIDEO

component are being output to a TV via
the receiver.
If the power supply of the receiver is
not turned on, neither video nor audio is
transmitted.
•Depending on the status
of the connection between
the TV and the antenna (aerial), the image on the
TV screen may be distorted. In this case, place the
antenna (aerial) farther away from the receiver.

jack of the TV to "Fixed" if it can be switched
between either
"Fixed" or "Variable."
