Introduction

We would like to thank you for purchasing one of our JVC products.

Before operating this unit, read this manual carefully and thoroughly to obtain the best possible performance

from your unit, and retain this manual for future reference.

Features

Hybrid Feedback Digital Amplifier

RX-D401S/RX-D402B features the JVC-exclusive Hybrid

Feedback Digital Amplifier. Premium-grade parts and devices,

and special internal construction assure you will enjoy superior

sound.

Compatible with HDMI*

The HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is the standard

interface for the next-generation TV. By connecting the source

components, this receiver, and TV with the HDMI cables, digital

video signals and audio signals (including Dolby Digital, DTS)

are transmitted through the cables. You can enjoy digital video

and sound without AD/DA conversion with easy connection.

As RX-D401S/RX-D402B supports up to HDMI version 1.1, this

receiver can digitally transmit 5.1-channel PCM with sampling

rates of 96 kHz and 2-channel PCM with sampling rates of 192

kHz. (These PCM signals are referred to as "multi channel

PCM" in this instruction.) You can enjoy digital sound without

deterioration. In addition, this receiver is compatible with

HDCP** (High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection), and

HDCP contents can be viewed if you connect a HDCP-

compatible TV to this receiver.

* HDMI, the HDMI logo and High-Definition Multimedia

Interface are trademarks or registered trademarks of HDMI

Licensing LLC.

** HDCP is the abbreviation of "High-Bandwidth Digital Content

Protection," and is the high-reliable copy control technology

licenced by Digital Content Protection, LLC.

7.1 channel DAP (Digital Acoustic Processor)

Sound field simulation technology allows precise ambience

recreation of existing theatres and halls. Thanks to the high-

performance DSP (Digital Signal Processor) and high-capacity

memory, you can enjoy 7.1-channel surround by playing 2-

channel or multi-channel software.

DCDi technology

DCDi (Directional Correlational Deinterlacing) technology,

developed by Faroudja, eliminates jagged edges generated in

progressive scan conversion. With DCDi, you can enjoy clear

and smooth video images on your display. For RX-D401S/RX-

D402B, this function is applied only when the NTSC analog

video signals are transmitted to the receiver.

Precautions

Power sources

· When unplugging the receiver from the wall outlet, always pull

the plug, not the AC power cord.

· Do not handle the AC power cord with wet hands.

· If you are not going to operate the receiver for an extended

period of time, unplug the AC power cord from the wall outlet.

Ventilation

The seven high power amplifiers built in this receiver will generate

heat inside the cabinet.

For safety, observe the following carefully:

· Make sure there is good ventilation around the receiver. Poor

ventilation could overheat and damage the receiver.

· Do not block the ventilation openings or holes. (If the ventilation

openings or holes are blocked by a newspaper or cloth, etc., the

heat may not be able to get out.)

Others

· Should any metallic object or liquid fall onto the unit, unplug the

unit and consult your dealer before operating any further.

· Do not use this receiver in a bathroom or places with water.

· Do not place any containers filled with water or liquids (such as

cosmetics or medicines, flower vases, potted plants, cups, etc.)

on top of this receiver.

· Do not disassemble the unit since there are no user serviceable

parts inside.

If anything goes wrong, unplug the AC power cord and consult

your JVC dealer.
