INSTRUCTION MANUAL

KENWOOD CORPORATION
This instruction manual is for some models. Model availability and features (functions) may differ depending on the country and sales area.
About the supplied remote control (RC-R0508).
Compared to standard remote controls, the remote control supplied with this receiver has several operation modes. These modes enable the remote control to control other audio/video components. In order to effectively use the remote control it is important to read the operating instructions and obtain a proper understanding of the remote control and how to switch its operation modes (etc.). Using the remote control without completely understanding its design and how to switch the operation modes may result in incorrect operations.

New DSP surround modes

This manual is divided in to four sections, Preparations, Operations, Other, and Remote Control. The DSP (Digital Signal Processor) used for this receiver incorporates a variety of high quality adjustable sound fields, like "LIVE" and "HALL". It is compatible with almost any kind of program source.
Shows you how to connect your audio and video components to the receiver and prepare the surround processor. We've tried to make setting up your system as easy as possible. However, since this receiver works with all of your audio and video components, connecting the system can be fairly complex.

DVD 6-channel input

If you own a DVD player equipped with 6-channel output, this receiver allows you to obtain the full surround sound impact of DVD source material featuring multi-channel encoding. Since the source signals are digital and each channel is input independently, the resulting ambience is far superior to what can be achieved with conventional surround sound systems.
Shows you how to operate the various functions available from the receiver.
Universal IR (InfraRed) remote control (RC-R0508 only)
In addition to the basic receiver, the remote control supplied with this receiver can also operate almost all of your remote controllable audio and video components. Just follow the simple setup procedure to register the components you have connected.
Shows you additional information such as In case of difficulty (troubleshooting) and Specifications.
Remote Control (Separate booklet) (RC-R0508 only)
Includes the Quick Start Guide, which shows you how to operate other components using the remote control, as well as a detailed explanation of all remote control operations. Once you have registered your components with the proper setup codes, youll be able to operate both this receiver and your other AV components (TV, VCR, LD player, CD player, etc.) using the remote control supplied with this receiver.
MACRO play (RC-R0508 only)
The MACRO function lets you perform a series of operations automatically, like turning ON the power of the receiver and connected components, switching the input selectors, and starting playback. (Be sure to register your components before starting the macro set up procedure.
RDS (Radio Data System) tuner
The receiver is equipped with a RDS tuner that provides several convenient tuning functions: RDS Auto Memory, to automatically preset up to 30 RDS stations broadcasting different programs; station name display, to show you the name of the current broadcast station; and PTY search to let you tune stations by program type.
PTY (Program TYpe) search
Lets you tune stations by specifying the type of program you want to hear.

EON (Enhanced Other Networks) reservation
The EON function lets you monitor information on other stations so you can receive traffic or news programs as soon as they are broadcast, even they are broadcast on a station different from the one you are currently listening to. When the broadcast ends, the receiver returns to the original station. When listening to KENWOOD source components connected with system control cords, the input selector on the receiver automatically switches to the tuner when a program you desire is broadcast.

VIDEO 2/MONITOR jacks

The receivers VIDEO 2/MONITOR jacks can be used in two different ways. Make the appropriate setting for the component connected to the jack when the receiver is turned on. Use as a VIDEO 2 jack You can connect a video deck or the like to these jacks and perform video playback and recording. The initial factory setting is VIDEO 2. Use as a MONITOR jack You can connect a cassette deck or the like to these jacks and make use of the decks monitoring function during recording. Alternately, you can connect a graphic equalizer to these jacks to apply compensation to the music signal. To use the VIDEO 2/MONITOR jacks as MONITOR jacks, hold down the VIDEO 2/MONITOR key of the main unit for more two seconds so that the indication shown below appears.

This operation will not effect items stored in the memory. After switching the system control mode, turn the power off and unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, then plug it back.
Registering setup codes for KENWOOD audio components (RC-R0508 only)
Once you finish making the system connections, be sure to register the appropriate setup code for each component. RC3 If you own remote controllable KENWOOD audio components that are not compatible with system control (or cannot be combined with your other system control components), registering the setup code enables you to control those components using the remote control supplied with this unit (without connecting system control cords). To register setup codes for your remote controllable KENWOOD audio components, see "Registering setup codes for other components". RC3
In order to take advantage of the system control operations, the components must be connected to the correct jacks. To use a CD player it must be connected to the CD jacks. To use a cassette deck (or MD recorder) it must be connected to the MD/TAPE jacks. When using more than one CD player (etc.) only the one connected to the specified jacks may be connected for system control. Some CD players and cassette decks are not compatible with the [SL16] system control mode. Be sure to use the [XS8] system control mode when making system connections with equipment that is not [SL16] compatible. Some MD players are not system control compatible. You cannot make system control connections to this kind of equipment.

Listening to radio broadcasts
Tuning (non-RDS) radio stations
Radio stations can be classified into RDS (Radio Data System) stations and other stations. To listen to or store RDS stations in the preset memory, see the section entitled, "Using RDS".
Using RDS (Radio Data System)
RDS is a system that transmits useful information (in the form of digital data) for FM broadcasts along with the broadcast signal. Tuners and receivers designed for RDS reception can extract the information from the broadcast signal for use with various functions, such as automatic display of the station name.

AUTO BAND

DVD 6-channel playback

Using a DVD player or the like equipped with six (5.1) output channels and the receiver, you can enjoy surround sound playback. When you try to play a disc other than Dolby Digital (AC-3) such as DTS CD, no sound is produced or, noise may be heard. To avoid this situation, make sure that you connect the component to the receivers DVD 6CH. INPUT jacks through a surround processor which can decode the surround signal you wont to listen to. Connecting a DVD player which can decode the surround signal itself is also acceptable.
