NTRODUCTION

Yamaha developed the YHT-17 A/V Home Theater package to turn your home into a theater. In addition to enhancing the sound of a video source, like your TV,

DVD, or VCR, the YHT-17 also superbly reproduces audio sources, such as a CD player or a cassette deck.

This Quick-Connect Guide will help you get started.

Study the speaker system plan (below), and then use the interconnect diagrams (on the following pages) to connect the receiver and speakers to your system.

For the video portion, you will need a DVD player or hi-fi stereo VCR and a television or monitor. Refer to the

Yamaha HTR-5230 Owner’s Manual, as well as those that came with your other components, for complete instructions and cautions. Be sure to turn off all power while making connections.

Save this Quick-Connect Guide for future reference.

NOTE: Label the end of each speaker wire (i.e., left rear, right front, etc.) before connecting them to the A/V receiver. For wire runs over 30 feet, use larger 18- or 16-gauge speaker wire.

ECODER

If you own a 5.1-channel decoder (or a unit which incorporates a 5.1-channel decoder), you can connect its discrete outputs to the HTR-5230 as shown below.

• To hear playback of a stereo or mono audio source or one encoded with Dolby Pro Logic Surround*, connect the unit (e.g., DVD player) to the DVD/LD

(or SAT/D-TV) AUDIO SIGNAL input terminals.

• The discrete signals feeding to the HTR-5230 cannot be recorded by a tape deck, MD recorder, or VCR.

To record programs from a source (e.g., laserdisc player), connect the source unit to the DVD/LD (or

SAT/D-TV) AUDIO SIGNAL input terminals.

The YHT-17 Home Theater package includes a universal remote control. It comes pre-programmed with factory codes to control your HTR-5230 receiver and most Yamaha audio components. To program other brands of components (i.e., TV, VCR, etc.) or if your

Yamaha unit does not respond, you will need to program the remote control with the manufacturer’s codes (listed on the back pages of the HTR-5230

Owner’s Manual).

NOTE: The universal remote control is designed to control most major brands of audio and video components. For other units, use the original remote control supplied with the product.
