CONNECTIONS
This system includes digital circuitry which may
cause interference such as color blotching or
changes in the color on TVs. If this happens,
move the system and the TV as far apart as
possible.
NOTE:
System operations
Such system operations as the timer and the auto on functions,
as well as remote control operations cannot be performed
unless all the RCA pin-plug cords and system connector cords
are connected between the units, so be sure to make all the
connections properly as shown in the diagram. Also,
disconnecting system connectors while the system is operating
may result in malfunction. Be sure to unplug the power cord
before changing connections.

(Plug into a power outlet)
• Do not plug the power cord into the power outlet until all connections are completed. Be
sure to interconnect the channels (L to L (white) and R to R (red)) properly, as shown on the
diagram.
• Insert the plugs securely. Incomplete connections may result in noise.
• Be sure to connect the speaker cords between the speaker terminals and the speaker
systems with the same polarities (+ to +, – to –). If the polarities are switched, the sound at
the center will be weak, the position of the different instruments will be unclear, and the
stereo effect will be lost.
• After unplugging the power cord, wait about 5 seconds before plugging it back in.
• Note that setting the connection cords (pin-plug cords) next to the power cords may result
in humming or other noise.

Connecting the speaker systems
Connect the speaker system for the
left channel (the left side as seen
from the front) to the ”L“ terminals,
the speaker system for the right
channel to the ”R“ terminals. Be sure
to use speaker systems with an
impedance of 4 Ω/ohms or greater.
Whenever the power switch is
in the STANDBY position, the
unit is still connected on AC line
voltage.
Please be sure to unplug the
cord when you leave home for,
say, a vacation.
CAUTION:
Right Left
AC Outlets
• SWITCHED outlet (DRA-F100)
The power of this outlet is switched on and off by the receiver’s SYSTEM
power operation switch.
This outlet will also be switched on when the power is set to ON-
STANDBY with the remote control.
When the receiver is in the standby mode, the outlet switches off after
approximately 20 seconds.
• UNSWITCHED outlets (DCD-F100)
These outlets remains on at all times, regardless of the setting of the CD
player’s and cassette’s power operation switch.
✽ Do not connect the receiver’s AC cord to the outlets on the CD player
(DCD-F100). Doing so could result in damage.
