If, however, the TV supports Audio Return Channel (ARC), TV audio signals can be input to the unit via the HDMI cable that outputs video signals from the unit to the TV.

NOTE

• Connect an HDMI cable to the audio return channel supported jack (the jack with "ARC" indicated) on TV.

• Enable the HDMI control function of the unit to activate the Audio Return Channel (ARC). For details, see the following:

• "Configuring the HDMI control function" (p.37)

• Use a 19-pin HDMI cable with the HDMI logo printed on it. A cable with a maximum length of 5m (16 ft) is recommended to prevent degradation of signal quality.
  Use a premium high-speed HDMI cable for playback of 3D and 4K video content.

• The unit supports HDCP version 2.2, a copy protection technology. For playback of 4K video, connect the unit to the HDMI input jack (one compatible with HDCP 2.2) on an HDCP 2.2-compliant TV.
• The TV input jack cannot be used when a TV that supports the Audio Return Channel is connected to the unit.

Connecting a TV that does not support Audio Return Channel (ARC)

Connect the TV to the unit with an HDMI cable (sold separately) and an optical digital audio cable (supplied).

NOTE

• Use a 19-pin HDMI cable with the HDMI logo printed on it. A cable with a maximum length of 5m (16 ft) is recommended to prevent degradation of signal quality.
  Use a premium high-speed HDMI cable for playback of 3D and 4K video content.
• The unit supports HDCP version 2.2, a copy protection technology. For playback of 4K video, connect the unit to the HDMI input jack (one compatible with HDCP 2.2) on an HDCP 2.2-compliant TV.
• When connecting the supplied optical digital audio cable, be sure to remove the cap and check the plug's orientation before connecting it.
• If the TV has no optical jack, connect the audio output jack on the TV to the ANALOG input jacks on the unit. For details, see the following:
• "Analog connection with a playback device" (p.25)

Analog connection with a playback device

Connect a playback device, such as a game console or a TV that does not have an optical digital audio output, to the unit via a 3.5 mm stereo mini plug cable (sold separately).

CAUTION

If volume can be adjusted on the device connected to the unit's ANALOG input jack, set that device's volume to the same level as that of other devices connected to the unit's HDMI IN jack to prevent volume from being louder than expected.

NOTE

When connecting the video device, connect the video device's video output to the TV's video input directly.

Mounting the unit on a wall

Mount the unit on a wall so that the touch panel faces forward.

CAUTION

• To prevent the unit from falling, attach it to a wall constructed of drywall (plasterboard).
• Make sure you use screws (sold separately) that can support the weight of the installation. Using clamps other than specified screws, such as short screws, nails, and two-sided tape, may cause the unit to fall.
  Fix the cables in place where they will not become loose. If your foot or hand accidentally gets caught on a loose cable, the unit may fall.
• Do not lean on the unit or apply excessive force to the top of the unit. Doing so may cause the unit to fall.
• Check that the unit is fixed securely after the installation. Yamaha will bear no responsibility for any accidents caused by improper installations.

Attach the mounting template (supplied) on a wall and mark for the screw holes.

2 Remove the mounting template from the wall, and then install screws (sold separately) at the points marked on the wall.

3 Peel off the backing paper from the spacers (supplied) and attach the adhesive face to the bottom of the unit.
